It seems that your boyfriend is more passive and likes to let the other party take the initiative. If you don't mind taking the initiative, then try to take the initiative more. His reply also shows that he values your news. In addition, if you are still troubled by this situation, you might as well communicate with him and see what his thoughts and expectations are in this area. This will be more helpful. As for the novel recommendations, I recommend "I realized after my biological father was the richest man." Although this novel does not completely meet your question, it is somewhat relevant. The plot and character descriptions are very good. It is worth reading. I hope you like my recommendation. Muah ~
