My Robot Mom

Jiang Yanyi is a professor of robotics ethics in a sci-fi novel. His wife disappeared unexpectedly three years ago, leaving behind their two-month-old daughter, Jiang Zhibai. After searching tirelessly with no results, Jiang Yanyi spent a fortune to customize a highly advanced humanoid bionic robot named Moji, designed to look exactly like his missing wife.

Meanwhile, in the real world, Chi Xiaoxue, who fell into a vegetative state after a car accident, unexpectedly finds her consciousness transferred into the robot’s body.

The Jiang family has just moved into the tech park community. When Jiang Yanyi returns home from the university, his new neighbor mentions seeing his wife that afternoon. Jiang Yanyi smiles politely and brushes it off, saying, “Yes, she’s quite introverted.” Secretly, he thinks the neighbor must have spotted the robot through the window and resolves to keep the curtains closed from now on.

The new neighbor, who had spent the entire afternoon chatting with Chi Xiaoxue, thinks to himself, “…I think you might have some misunderstandings about your wife.”

A few days later, Professor Li, who specializes in botanical research, comes to complain, “Professor Jiang, your wife took your daughter to steal and eat the new variety of cherry tomatoes from my experimental plot.”

Jiang Yanyi is speechless. “…Are you sure it was my wife who stole the tomatoes?”

Professor Li’s beard practically bristles with anger. “Your wife is such a striking beauty—there’s no one else in the entire community who looks like her. How could I possibly mistake her?”

Jiang Yanyi, bewildered, thinks to himself, “…But I was under the impression that my wife only ever needed to recharge.”

Gentle and restrained Professor Jiang × free-spirited and hilarious Chi Xiaoxue × beloved little treasure Xiao Bai—a heartwarming story of a family of three finding happiness together.
