Some say that the biggest difference between humans and animals lies in the fact that humans have thoughts.
Xiao Ming didn't think so.
Current technology still couldn't allow one to see the consciousness in the brains of other creatures besides oneself, and although animals lacked intellectual spirit, to say that they had no thoughts at all was too absolute—it was merely a matter of more or less.
The biggest difference between humans and animals was that humans understood self-restraint and knew that life couldn't be disordered.
Absolute freedom was an absolute disaster.
Only those who knew how to shackle their hearts had the right to be human.
Therefore, Xiao Ming was proud of the bandages wrapped around his head.
He had held firm and not touched the doll programmed for absolute obedience, even after being drugged—an obvious testament to his moral integrity and the most straightforward portrayal of his love for his wife.
