I am new to the forum and there's still a lot for me to digest.

I am interested in a few topics and intuitively add it to the watchlist. However, when I go into my watchlist I found nothing.

Later, I figure out that I can have a view of all my interested topic in the edit watchlist window. But I wonder if this is the right way to review them, I mean, I can accidentally delete them...

In my experience, when you open a post once it dissapears from the watchlist.
What I always do is to go to  Profile -> Show posts, and find the post I'm interested in. This works out better for me than the watchlist.
Sometimes I also bookmark a post in my browser.

This is good. Another way to access topics that you have posted. But it dedicated to my posts, not my watch list.

Anyway it is helpful and thanks.

When you put a topic in your watchlist, you can then, in "Edit watchlist" which you can find at the top left of the Watchlist section, see all the topics which you have watched in the past even if there is no new reply.

Guess I will go for the "Edit watchlist", it is well organised and I can actually control it. Just try to be careful not to delete things.

You could just use Show new replies to your posts if you've posted in the thread and there's new replies. I just use that.

The disadvantage is that there's no way (as far as I know) to remove posts from that category. So after a few months of regularly posting, this can become quite cluttered.
