Synopsis

[Older, protective male lead + Age gap + Beijing social circle + Secret crush + Both leads are each other's first and only] [Gentle, graceful beauty from Jiangnan ✖️ Ascetic Buddhist gentleman of Beijing's elite]

Rumor has it that the head of the Fu family is composed and self-possessed, refined and abstinent, like a Buddhist monk. Countless women want to marry him.

A young woman is always by his side, gentle and gracious, her affection for him plain to see. By family seniority, she has to call him “Uncle” (though they are not related by blood).

From the moment they first met, she fell for him, grateful for his kindness and for stepping in to help her. Their social status is worlds apart, so Jiang Yuan works hard to excel and keep up with him. She thinks her secret crush will never see the light of day, but as they grow closer, she makes her move without letting it show.

One night, she barges into his study. The man is writing a calming mantra and doing his best to keep himself in check. With a stern face, he tells her to go back to bed. Though the young woman is frightened, she doesn't leave. He pins her against the edge of the desk, dark eyes churning with emotion. “Yuan-Yuan, who taught you that you could sneak into a man's room in the middle of the night, hmm?”

“Uncle, you're hurting me...”

“Don't call me Uncle...”

“...Sir.”

Everyone thinks the two of them have no chance, until a video of a reporter's interview comes out.

“Mr. Fu, may I ask how you got that red mark on your Adam's apple?”

“My girlfriend bit me.”

“Little temptress, don't provoke me.”

“Don't call me Uncle. Call me husband.”

“You spoiled little thing, you're so delicate.”

“If it hurts, grab my hand. Don't bite your lip.”

“If you keep teasing me, I won't leave. And I won't be a gentleman either.”

Theme: Love begins at first sight. In this life, my heart belongs to you alone.

It's so good! I love sweet stories like this; I don't like angst. Angsty stories make my heart ache. I've lost count of how many books by Jiu Ge'er I've read before; I absolutely adore them!

The story in the book has ended, but their story continues. The entire story is incredibly sweet with no scheming characters. The male lead gradually transforms from a detached and indifferent person into a doting husband, while the female lead is generous, gentle, and intelligent. Most importantly, both families are very loving.

The love story between Jiang Yuan and Fu Yanli is really sweet. Jiang Yuan is a classic beauty from Jiangnan, with a gentle and generous personality. She can be a little temperamental at times (in front of our male lead, haha), but she is also very kind-hearted. Fu Yanli is known as the Buddhist monk of the Beijing circle. Before meeting the female lead, he was a Buddha.

Everyone should go see it, it's really good! Fu Yanli and Jiang Yuan's story is so sweet, and so are Fu Ningning and Han Yu's, and so on—they're all so sweet. Actually, I like the bold Ningning the most, hehe~ Of course, Ye Huai'an and Wen Qian's story is also great. Male lead: Fu Yanli Female lead: Jiang Yuan (Quite bold 😳) My favorite side couple Fu Ningning and Han Yu

Reading sweet romance novels makes even the air feel sweet. The considerate "older man" and the kind yet cunning young girl's love develops gradually and becomes unforgettable. While the young girl is pursuing the "older man," he is gradually luring her into his trap. A love that is mutual is the sweetest. The author's writing is as good as ever.

I love following Ge'er's books; three chapters a day are a real treat. She's as witty and humorous as ever, sweet when she needs to be, and spicy when she needs to be, treating us like family.
