Synopsis

[Childhood sweethearts] [A sweet bedtime treat]

Guiding childhood-friend older brother VS a sweet, oblivious girl

Theme: The simple things in life are what matter most

Yu Sinian had a fiancée he’d been promised to from a very young age.

Everyone else thought his little fiancée was the one who clung to him, following him around like his shadow since childhood. But that wasn’t the case. I was the one who couldn’t bear to be apart from her. I loved how she relied on me for everything, how she’d feed me without thinking, and how childish she was around me. She was still so innocent about the world, and I was happy to guide her as she grew.

Xu Yang’s perspective:

Xu Yang had always thought she was Yu Sinian’s clingy little shadow, his oblivious fiancée whom he took care of at every turn. Then conversations about “love” began circulating around campus, and all the little feelings she’d overlooked suddenly fell into place. She felt uncomfortable watching him talk to a senior girl, hurt when someone said they made a good match, and no matter how much fun she was having, she’d still think, “It’d be even better if he were here.”

Yu Sinian’s tenderness had never been something she could take for granted. He remembered every little thing she liked, traveled halfway around the world to visit her when she was sick, and put fish fillets with all the bones removed into her bowl. He had long since fallen for her dependence and the way she fed him, and gladly became her guide as she grew, waiting for her to fall into the arms he’d already opened to her.

From childhood sweethearts in split pants to the flutter of seeing each other in school uniforms, the seed of “love” had quietly grown into a towering tree through all their years together.

It turned out the meaning of love wasn’t all that mysterious.

A sweet bedtime read from campus days to wedding bells, with a tender confession of mutual devotion. So sweet it’ll give you a toothache!

So sweet! I'm not a shill, there's no melodramatic plot. Both the male and female leads are very intelligent. The male lead has taken care of the female lead since she was a child, and she knew she was his fiancée from the moment she was born. A particularly touching scene was when someone wrote a love letter to the female lead.

Wow, I didn't expect even more people to watch it after it ended! It's absolutely amazing, incredibly good. The childhood sweetheart story is sweet and enduring. This author's writing is unlike anything I've done before; it's better than many others. This book is truly perfect, featuring a school setting and two academic high-achievers.

It's a very pure love story; the male and female leads have a very strong bond. There aren't any overly dramatic scenes; it's a gentle, flowing love story that's beautiful. I hope Yangyang and Niannian will always be together happily! 😘😘😘

When I first came across this novel, what attracted me most was that the male and female leads were both academic geniuses and childhood sweethearts. After clicking on the book page and reading the synopsis, I found it intriguing and started reading the first chapter. The more I read, the more I enjoyed it, and I finally finished the last chapter today. The male and female leads are so sweet! 🙂🙂🙂
