    This is a story I've been able to keep reading, even though it's a bit understated and peaceful—a typical military romance where the protagonists don't interact much with other family members, and there aren't any big dinner parties at the beginning. It focuses on the lives of the male and female leads, making other characters feel like peripheral figures. The relationship develops quickly, with the male lead initially attracted to the female lead, but they maintain mutual respect, understanding, and tolerance. The little boy, Dun Dun, is also incredibly cute. If you're interested, check it out!
