1. Lục Bắc Thần – Seven Years Still Looking to the North, Ân Tầm
"If I like her, then why shouldn't I? I don't need her to be too beautiful because I'll get jealous if another man notices her. She doesn't need to be too smart, as long as I'm smart enough. She doesn’t need to be exceptional because I can be. She doesn’t need to know how to take care of others, or even herself, because I can take care of her."
What girlfriend wouldn’t feel touched hearing this? Especially when it comes from a guy who’s known for being rational, cold, and dangerous? Lục Bắc Thần – an internationally recognized forensic anthropologist, a man of high status and great respect, holds the infamous “Bắc Thần budget.” In his work, he’s demanding and uncompromising, but in love, he’s warm, loyal, and deeply caring.
Lục Bắc Thần’s love for Cố Sơ is filled with misunderstandings, even hatred, distance, and years of suffering. But no matter how far apart they were, he could never let go. To him, Cố Sơ was an imperfect girl, but a dream that couldn’t be erased. He loved her, loved everything about her, willing to fill in all her gaps as long as she was by his side.

This is perhaps the most memorable line from lawyer Hà – a line that strikes deeply at the heart of every reader. Just this one line perfectly encapsulates how extraordinary Hà Dĩ Thâm is. He is a man of remarkable looks, a stable career, mature and thoughtful personality, but above all, he is a man of absolute devotion. The love he holds for Mặc Sênh is the only love in his life. Despite all the hardships and years of waiting, he is unwavering, determined to have only her, never willing to settle for anyone else. For him, she is the true destination his heart seeks. He would rather wait seven years, or even longer, than accept anything fleeting.
Hà Dĩ Thâm did not come from a prestigious family, nor does he have billion-dollar sports cars or luxurious villas like other 'soái ca.'

He had a great environment to thrive in, a bright future in a wonderful country, but in the end, he gave it all up for Lăng Lăng. Even though he was just a shadow in her life, he still returned.
“I tried to forget you. I thought time would heal everything.

14. Tưởng Viễn Chu – Irresistible Beauty, Thánh Yêu
“She’s already mine.”
This line is the perfect declaration of ownership from Tưởng Viễn Chu, marking his love for Hứa Tình Thâm.
Tưởng Viễn Chu is a rational man, someone who is clear-headed in all matters, even in love and family. He loves Hứa Tình Thâm, but he's never actually voiced that love. He cares for her, caters to her every whim, but what began as a transaction evolved into a deeply emotional and unforgettable love.
For him, love is always between the two of them, and anyone else is irrelevant. His feelings for Hứa Tình Thâm were real, but his overly rational nature caused him to lose her. Even so, the two years apart never diminished his love for her. She remained in his heart all along.


15. Trình Mục Dương – One Life, One Love, Mặc Phi Bảo Bảo

She was his life, his everything, and he would give up anything, even himself, for her.
Trình Mục Dương, burdened with his family’s legacy, silently followed Nam Bắc, protecting her in silence, hoping to be by her side for life. For her, he searched relentlessly, always believing that one day they would be reunited.
“The old story, he would slowly tell her:
How he, Trình Mục Dương, owed her a life.”
And how, with an insatiable longing, he wished for her to be his for all time.”


16. Lục Song - Snail's Pace, Điệp Chi Linh
“I am willing to shield her with my umbrella.”
Lục Song, the quintessential “silent guardian” admired by readers, harbors a love for Vệ Nam that is quiet, one-sided, and selfless. His affection is a love that asks for nothing in return, a love that feels almost “voluntary.” Lục Song is content with his role as “the older brother’s friend,” quietly standing by her side, offering care and protection. He doesn't rush; he slowly becomes a part of her life. He does countless things for her, always with the utmost sincerity, maturity, and perseverance.
For Vệ Nam, he waits. He waits for her to open her heart to him. So, he stays by her side, gradually becoming an inseparable part of her world. Eventually, Vệ Nam realizes that even though she holds onto the deeply etched memory of Hứa Chí Bằng, walking with him in the rain, what she truly needs is Lục Song, quietly shielding her from the storms of life.

Would you completely fall for someone if they said that? This line takes us back to the romantic, carefree days of our school years. The days where every one of us has a Dư Hoài of our own. As we read “Youth Together,” we recognize the innocent affection Dư Hoài feels for Cảnh Cảnh, a quiet and tender love that is simply called “liking.” This feeling cannot be spoken aloud, nor can it be shared with anyone else—it must remain hidden in the heart, quietly cared for.

He’s the type of person who pays attention to the smallest details, treating Cảnh Cảnh as if she’s “his own.” His feelings for her are the purest, most beautiful kind of love—the kind we all experience in our youth. This love has moments of childish quarrels, the silent ache of longing, a bit of bittersweetness... and most of all, the sweetness that remains unforgettable, even five or ten years later.


18. Lâm Tự Sâm - Scorching Sun
“I’m waiting for you to give me a radiant sun.”

“The one apology that should never exist in this world is an apology for loving someone.”


19. Phong Đằng - Sam Sam, Come Eat Here
“What I like is that "it's fine" attitude of hers. Don’t you feel that the feelings between us have nothing to do with family background, experience, or social status? I’m out there working to earn money, and all she needs is a simple "it's fine," "it’s okay," and that’s enough for her."
This is the line that stole the hearts of millions of fans. This novel tells the fairytale story of an ordinary employee who captures the attention of the powerful CEO in the company. And then, one day, this CEO, who’s as imposing as a mountain, uses all his clever strategies to care for the naive girl, only to 'devour' her later. This signature line became the mark of how Phong Đằng showed his true feelings for the girl in front of him — the one he would love forever.
“Every day, I ate my meals here. Then one day, a girl suddenly stormed onto my rooftop. I watched her eat, and the days went by, one after the other. Sometimes I saw her smile, and other times, I saw her cry. I kept watching, and watching, until it became etched in my heart.”


20. Bạc Cận Ngôn – Close Your Eyes When I Arrive, Đinh Mặc
“I love you, with my life and my intellect.”
Bạc Cận Ngôn is a genius with an insanely high IQ, yet his EQ is practically nonexistent. He’s the embodiment of a brilliant but arrogant ‘great one,’ yet his awkward and blunt comments make readers laugh one moment and feel sympathy the next. Despite his superior intellect, Bạc Cận Ngôn’s approach to love is brutally honest and undeniably charming in its simplicity:
“Are you uncomfortable?”
“No, it’ll be over tomorrow.”
“These are the lowest IQ viruses among all the other viruses.”
“How do you know?”
“Because between us, the viruses would choose me. I’m handsome, smart, and talented... but instead, they’ve chosen you, so you’re clearly the lowest IQ virus among them.”
Or:
“Compared to me, that guy is just a walking idiot. The only thing he’s good at is knowing that you’re a good girl.” This is the essence of Bạc Cận Ngôn’s love for Giản Dao—uncomplicated, unpretentious, and as pure as it gets. No grand gestures, no flowery promises, just an unshakable devotion to love her with all his heart and mind.


21. Tề Mặc – The Path of Love, Chu Ngọc
“I allow you to like me.”
This might be the most iconic line from Tề Mặc, a statement that makes everyone who hears it nod in agreement. With just this one line, it perfectly sums up Tề Mặc’s dominant yet innocent approach to love. This simple sentence encapsulates the essence of his character—cool, tough, yet real. His love for Ly Tâm became an obsession for many fans who were captivated by his complex yet charming personality. In the novel, Tề Mặc is the quintessential cold, ruthless, and powerful ‘hero’ who sees the world only in terms of enemies and allies. For him, love doesn't involve words or emotions, and his way of showing affection towards Ly Tâm often leaves readers stunned, like this:
“You can only die by my hands. If they catch up, I’ll kill you myself!”
Or:
“I haven’t proposed to you yet!”
“No proposal? Would you dare not marry me?”
“This is me forcing you to marry me!”
“So what? What’s the problem? You’re the future mistress of the Tề family, the wife of Tề Mặc. Why complicate things?”
And so, Chu Ngọc created Tề Mặc—an underground king who never knows the meaning of fear and has long forgotten what love truly is. His love for Ly Tâm isn’t about romantic gestures; it’s about training her to be strong, to protect herself, so she can stand beside him as an equal, worthy of being the mistress of the Tề family.
“I allow you to like me.” This naive yet undeniably sweet phrase from Tề Mặc will always be etched in Mộc Ly Tâm’s heart, a line she will never forget.


22. Niên Bách Ngạn – Don’t Let Us Miss Each Other, Ân Tầm
"I don’t want to boast about how many women are desperate to enter my world. I just want to say that I’ve prepared my entire world for one girl only..."
Has anyone ever been so hooked by reading “Tố Niên Bất Tương Phùng” that they ended up reading the entire works of Ân Tầm just to find out more? Niên Bách Ngạn, the eldest son of the Niên family and the CEO of Tinh Thạch Group, is the man that his childhood friend, Kỷ Đông Nham, calls a “heartless person”, while his younger brother, Niên Bách Tiêu, believes he has “no sense of brotherhood”. In business, he’s a successful, cold, and disciplined man. He’s the type who is warm to his loved ones but distant and indifferent to strangers.
Niên Bách Ngạn is a character that made a deep impression on me—an extremely principled and philosophical man, yet someone with a deep, sentimental side. As the author, Ân Tầm, once described, “He’s not perfect. He has his own persistence, his own stubbornness, his own endurance, and his own reflections. He’s no longer just a fictional character in a romance novel; he feels like a real, living person…” This is why his love for Tố Diệp is more profound and genuine than any love story I’ve ever read (though, admittedly, he can be quite domineering and harsh with her...).
Niên Bách Ngạn is the kind of man every woman dreams of—someone who doesn’t use flowery words but when he speaks, it leaves readers and Tố Diệp breathless. He makes everyone wish they were Tố Diệp, the only girl allowed into his world. He does everything to protect the woman he loves—starting from scratch to rebuild his career, willing to serve time in prison for four years to shield her, even suggesting divorce to let her find happiness with someone else, all for Tố Diệp’s sake.
And I bet you’d nod in agreement when Niên Bách Ngạn, with a serious expression, stands before you and says this: “If you allow me to stand in front of you, I can shield you from the storms in life. I only want to know—will you accept my selfishness?”
