the slowburn romance between the FL and ML is acceptable. Because both still in their teenage years. The FL is 14 and the ML is 15. But we won't wait too long to be able to read the romance started between them. Only took 180 chapters and the ML is the one who realize it first and making a move move first. I love FL braveness even though she knows ML might suspicious with her real identity, she has confidence of her own safety. And I love how this reborn ancient male lead pursuing the female lead openly and told her how he feels for her truthfully. This story is highly recommended for romance story. The blatant confession on chapter 193 captured my heart. I really wait for the official translation because reading with google translation often lost the essential meaning of the story. Here I share the part where finally the ML openly confess his feeling.

LIKEi just wanna add more, I love the ML and FL interaction after they confirmed each other feeling. Even they're not yet consumate the marriage until chapter 400++, because of they both have underage body with 2 old soul, but they have plenty love talk, and very generous in hugging, kissing, sleeping together and pillow talk. they trust each other and protecting each other. the most lovely historical romance I've ever read.
