    1. The Unwavering Devotion of Childhood Sweethearts: Stemming from the yearning for love "from youth to old age," the story portrays the male lead's unwavering devotion for fifteen years. The female lead is his eternal "white moonlight," a "unique" setting that resonates with readers of sweet romance novels. 2. The Pull-and-Shock Effect of a Wealthy Beijing Family: The story blends the background of a wealthy family with family resistance, adding heart-wrenching twists and turns to the romance. The male lead's contrasting persona—a seemingly aloof "Buddhist" character—with his doting "wife-spoiling maniac" persona creates a unique charm. 3. The Satisfying "Wife-Chasing" Moment: Initially, the male lead's restraint hurts the female lead, but later he relentlessly pursues her, making amends for past regrets. This fulfills readers' expectations for a "prodigal son's return (the restrained version)," making the sweet aftertaste even more delightful. 4. Romance in the details of life: From custard buns and brown sugar ginger tea to engraved Buddhist beads and promises made under the osmanthus tree, the details full of everyday life are used to build up the appearance of love, allowing readers to feel the warmth and sweetness of a long-lasting relationship.

The whole story is super sweet with no angst, but it's not mindless or scheming. There are no scheming plot points like those involving a manipulative woman. Plus, the female lead's brother is hilarious. 2. The male and female leads are exceptionally well-developed.
