On a sunny afternoon, Shirayuki (not her real name) returns to her long-lost hometown. When she came back this time, she found that there was a strange man in her family - Uncle Chen. Her mother told her that Uncle Chen would be her stepfather.
Bai Xue is full of curiosity about Uncle Chen. He is gentle, humorous, and always brings laughter to the family. Gradually, Bai Xue discovers that she is in love with this stepfather.
This feeling made her feel guilty, and she tried to hide her thoughts. However, whenever she saw Uncle Chen's concerned gaze and heard his caring words, Bai Xue's heart beat uncontrollably.
One day, Bai Xue stumbles upon a letter from Uncle Chen to her mother in the closet. In the letter, Uncle Chen poured out his love for Bai Xue's mother and his love for Bai Xue. It turned out that Uncle Chen had been silently watching her.
Bai Xue burst into tears, and she decided to face her feelings bravely. At a family gathering, she plucked up the courage to confess to Uncle Chen. Uncle Chen was stunned, then smiled with relief.
Uncle Chen tells her that he has always liked her, but the relationship between them cannot be blessed. Bai Xue cried sadly, but she understood that this love would eventually turn into family affection and accompany her for the rest of her life.
Under the care of Uncle Chen and her mother, Bai Xue thrived. She learned how to love and cherish the loved ones around her. Although she could not have a full family, she knew that the love in her heart made her a stronger and kinder person.
When Bai Xue grew up, she left her hometown to pursue her dreams. In the years away from home, she always remembered that secret emotion, turned that love into strength, and moved forward bravely.
