    ① The female lead has a fantastic view on love and in her dealings with others; she's objective and doesn't judge people, only seeking to be true to herself and without ulterior motives. ② The female lead's values ​​are incredibly upright, beyond description. This book is really nice. Each character isn't simply black and white; they mostly have different perspectives and ways of dealing with the world. You gradually come to understand each character, seeing their multifaceted nature and the complexity of human nature. There are many plot twists, or rather, the initial portrayals are one-dimensional, gradually becoming more complex later on.

    A female protagonist from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners versus a male protagonist a business tycoon. The female protagonist is gentle and composed, but due to past betrayals, she is guarded and always maintains a clear-headed and reserved attitude towards the male protagonist. The male protagonist is extremely insecure, constantly feeling that the female protagonist doesn't love him as much as he thinks, leading to a tense and agonizing relationship. Highly recommended.
