Because it does all the things every other confession scene does, but it also does so much more.

For starters, from Chu Wanning’s perspective, this is simultaneously the best and also most embarrassing moment of his life. Like, his long time crush just told him he likes him back, and that he’s the most beautiful person in the world (not that he believes him of course). But also Chu Wanning is mortified because now he basically admitted to being the mushy little guy that he’s tried his entire life to pretend not to be.

In essence, he’s just so flustered that he might explode.

And then you get to Mo Ran.

And at first, he acts exactly how you expect. He’s thrilled, he’s ecstatic, this is everything he’s ever wanted and more.

Then he takes two steps away from the moment and suddenly everything cracks. Because he’s gotten everything he’s ever wanted, and now he realizes what that means.

He could have had this before.

Because if Chu Wanning has loved him since before the ghost marriage, then that means that he also did in their past life. And this is so much worse then just when he realized that Chu Wanning had always been looking out for him, because this was all there before and Mo Ran then proceeded to treat him terribly.
