Although take-out food didn't provide much nutrition, it was still better than instant noodles. Furthermore, if Mu Lian wanted to go out to buy food, it would be even more difficult than making him squeeze through the public transport. Since it was really against humanity, Tang Xiaotang gave up on the idea of letting him cook by herself.

So today, was the sun rising from the west?

He saw Mu Lian wearing a black apron and one-time use gloves, seriously cutting the meat on the chopping board into extremely neat pieces. He cut very slowly, and there were rules on the plate beside him. He arranged the tofu that formed a square and the vegetables that were piled into a cone …

”How come you're in the mood to cook today?” Tang Xiaotang could not help but ask.

When he suddenly heard her voice, Mu Lian trembled, and almost cut his own finger. He turned around, but did not see that familiar figure, so after thinking for a moment, he took off his gloves and took out his phone. He asked uncertainly: ”Mu Yun?”

”Yeah.”

”Did I wake you?” Mu Lian felt a little guilty. When he woke up, she was clearly still asleep …

”It's not you. You haven't answered my question yet.”

Tang Xiaotang was really curious, what could make Mu Lian cook personally? In these few months that he had been together with her, he could count the number of times he had cooked with one hand …

Mu Lian was very happy, he was very satisfied with the results of the test. Although the Lian Yun could not have the same self-awareness as Mu Yun, it was still much better than the previous data that only knew how to replicate mechanically. He shared ten different anti-virus software, and discovered that it could sense danger and hide itself in time, causing the anti-virus software to not be able to find any traces of it.

He felt that Mu Yun was truly his lucky star. It was thanks to her words that he was able to think of not only making the Lian Yun ”immortal”, but also making it protect him.

”I'm very happy to have solved a problem that I haven't been able to figure out.” He couldn't help but want to share his joy with her. ”It's all thanks to what you've told me.”

”Is that so?” Tang Xiaotang thought that the Lian Yun had perfected it, and only this matter could make Mu Lian so excited.

”Of course! ”Mu Yun, it's all thanks to you!” His eyes were different from usual, excited like a child.

”Don't say that, I did not help you in any way. It was you yourself, Mu Lian. ”You are very powerful.” Tang Xiaotang had to admit that Mu Lian was a true genius, from her few words that could not be considered much, he was able to discover the crux of the problem. She had no doubt that if not for those things, with his abilities, artificial intelligence would be born under his hands sooner or later.

”Do you really think so? Don't you think... ”Am I weird? I'm not normal …” Mu Lian's eyes lit up, but he seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes dimmed: ”They all said, I am a freak...”

He remembered how, in college, no one in the lab had wanted to get close to him, how more than once he had heard them call him a psychopath, a freak, behind his back.

He could ignore the opinions of those people because they had nothing to do with him. He did not need them to understand him, but … She was different, he did not want to, did not want to … She looked at her like that …

Seeing the fear in Mu Lian's eyes, he immediately understood what was in his heart. He actually cared a lot about those words, right … It's not that they don't want to walk out of their world, but no one is willing to give him a hand. They will only push him deeper …

”Mu Lian,” she said. ”If you're a freak, then what am I?”
