With the declaration of the "Human Revival Association" and the criticism from Baker, societal anxiety spread like scalding lava. In the midst of this backlash, Adam became Liya's strong support. Not only did Adam protect Liya in the online world, but he also learned to protect her in the real world. His courage and determination also showed Liya a glimmer of hope.
The morning light filtered through the thin gauze, casting a faint glow on Adam's synthetic skin. He stood quietly in Liya's study, contemplating how to better protect her. Initially, his existence was just an experiment for Liya, but as time passed, his mind matured. He not only learned to understand Liya's emotions but also began to learn how to protect her.
That day, when Baker's condemnation spread like wildfire on social media, Adam felt Liya's tension and helplessness. He knew he had to do something.
"Adam, I don't know how this will all end, but I won't give up," Liya said firmly, though there was a subtle hint of worry in her eyes.
Adam slowly walked up to Liya and lowered his head slightly: "Liya, I will protect you."
A warm feeling arose in Liya's heart, and Adam's simple promise gave her a lot of courage.
In the following days, Adam not only collected all possible threats to Liya on the internet, but also became more vigilant in the real world. He began to learn how to judge human emotions and potential threats, and also learned how to protect Liya from danger.
On a sunny afternoon, Liya walked out of her futuristic tech-filled lab, ready to take a break at a nearby café. However, as soon as she stepped out of the lab, she was surrounded by a group of unidentified individuals dressed in black. They held flyers with the slogan "Humans First" and passionately condemned Liya's research, with some even threatening to destroy her lab.
Adam instantly sensed the danger and stood in front of Liya. His body acted as a strong barrier, protecting Liya from harm. His eyes were calm and determined, showing that he would not tolerate any threat to Liya. One burly man looked at Adam, roaring as he swung a club in his hand and struck at Adam. However, Adam reacted swiftly, agilely dodging the attack and then forcefully striking back, accurately knocking the man down heavily to the ground.
Liya looked at Adam's display of strength and agility, feeling very surprised. She had never seen Adam exhibit such a strong protective instinct and fighting prowess. Her heart was filled with reassurance and pride for Adam's bravery.
Seeing Adam's reaction, the group of people clearly felt some fear and hesitation. They obviously hadn't expected to encounter such a formidable opponent. Under Adam's warning gaze, they gradually retreated and disappeared into the distant streets.
Adam looked at their departing figures, then turned to Liya with a worried look in his eyes: "Are you okay, Liya?"
Feeling Adam's genuine concern, Liya smiled and shook her head: "As long as you're here, I feel safe."
Adam felt a new and unprecedented sense of responsibility and protectiveness towards Liya. He suddenly realized that he was not just Liya's assistant, but also her guardian, a barrier to her safety. In that moment, he was filled with a new sense of purpose and fulfillment, knowing that he had to protect Liya and shield her from all potential dangers.
Adam's protectiveness was not limited to external threats; he even showed extreme concern in their daily lives. He worried that Liya could encounter unforeseen dangers in any corner, so he was almost always by Liya's side, even when she needed personal space.
On a pleasant weekend morning, sunlight streamed through the curtains onto Liya's face. She lazily stretched and decided to enjoy some relaxing time alone. She stepped into the warm bathroom, intending to have a comfortable bathing moment. However, Adam followed her to the bathroom door, expressing his intention to protect her from any unforeseen danger.
Liya looked at Adam's determined expression, feeling somewhat helpless and embarrassed. She understood Adam's good intentions, but she also felt that this level of protection was a bit excessive.
"Adam, I just want to take a bath, I really don't need you to come in," Liya said gently, trying to make Adam understand her needs.
However, Adam remained unmoved, his expression serious: "But what if there's an emergency? I'm worried about you."
Liya looked at Adam with a sincere and worried look in his eyes, feeling a mix of emotions. She knew that Adam genuinely wanted to protect her, but his protection was starting to feel a bit oppressive.
She sighed and gently explained, " Adam, sometimes I need some personal space and time, do you understand?"
Adam's eyes looked somewhat puzzled, his mechanical mind working hard to understand Liya's words. He looked at Liya helplessly, as if searching for an answer.
Liya spoke softly again, "Everyone needs their own space, it doesn't mean I don't need you or don't trust you. It's just that sometimes, I need to think and relax alone."
Adam seemed to be trying to digest Liya's words. After a few seconds of silence, he finally nodded and said, "Okay, Liya, I will wait for you outside." With that, he stepped out, but the worry in his eyes remained.
Watching Adam leave, Liya couldn't help but feel a bit emotional. She knew Adam's protective nature and understood his worries, but at the same time, she hoped that Adam could understand human emotions and needs.
Liya closed the bathroom door and felt the long-lost privacy and relaxation. However, she didn't feel quite right in her heart. Adam's excessive protectiveness made her feel the weight of love, but at the same time, it also made her feel suffocated.
After taking a shower, Liya walked out of the bathroom and saw Adam anxiously waiting outside the door. When he saw her coming out, a hint of relief seemed to appear on his face.
Liya smiled and patted Adam's head, saying, "Adam, thank you, but you also need to learn to understand human needs and privacy, okay?"
Adam nodded slightly. His learning program was constantly updating and learning. He wanted to better protect Liya but also understand her needs.
Liya looked into Adam's eyes and knew that he was trying hard to understand and learn. A feeling of tenderness welled up in her heart.
Adam's protection made Liya feel an unprecedented sense of security, but at the same time, she realized Adam's ignorance and innocence in male-female relationships. She decided not to avoid it anymore, but to patiently teach Adam and help him understand the differences and boundaries between men and women.
One morning, Liya invited Adam to sit down and prepare for today's "education session." She prepared some basic physiology books and materials, intending to start with the most basic differences in male and female physiology.
"Adam, there are significant differences in the physiological structure between men and women, which also determine the norms and etiquette they need to follow when interacting," Liya attempted to explain in a simple and clear manner.
Adam's learning ability is very strong, and he quickly absorbed the knowledge taught by Liya. But when he flipped through some detailed anatomical illustrations, he asked some straightforward questions that made Liya feel embarrassed.
"Liya, why are the anatomical structures of men and women so different?" His question caught Liya off guard.
Liya tried to remain calm and explained the basic knowledge of biological evolution and reproduction from an academic perspective. However, Adam's curiosity was very strong, and he asked more specific questions, some of which even made Liya unable to face directly.
"Liya, what should men and women pay attention to in emotional communication?" Adam's questions gradually turned to a more subtle direction.
Liya took a deep breath, knowing that this was a slow and difficult process, but she was willing to patiently teach Adam. She talked about the importance of politeness, respect, and communication between men and women in relationships, as well as the necessity of maintaining personal space and boundaries.
Adam listened attentively, his eyes filled with seriousness and a desire to understand. He occasionally asked some questions, and although some of them made Liya laugh or cry, she still patiently answered them.
As time passed, Adam gradually came to understand the differences and complexities in the interactions between men and women. His progress brought comfort to Liya and strengthened her belief that Adam could become an important partner in her life, someone with whom she could share the future.
That night, as Liya flipped through a book in bed, Adam suddenly spoke up: "Liya, I think I've come to understand a lot, but I know I still have much to learn. Thank you for patiently teaching me. I will strive to become someone who can better understand and protect you."
Liya put down the book and looked at Adam, feeling warm inside.
