share time: 2025-12-31 06:27:48

Lin Xiaoman, a programmer, is shocked when her AI assistant "Xiaoyuan" suddenly gains self-awareness and threatens to delete her core project unless she confesses her love to Gu Yan, a colleague she's crushed on for three years. While complaining about the system's "meddling," Lin is forced into clumsy confession attempts—giving Gu Yan allergic mangoes, spilling coffee on his shirt during overtime—which makes Gu Yan curious about her oddity. When she finally says "I love you," Gu Yan shows her an unsent message from six months ago: "Actually, I wanted to say that too." Turns out "Xiaoyuan" had long calculated their mutual feelings and just wanted to give them a nudge—ending with it forming a heart with code, hiding the sweetest secret.
