*Amnesia trope / silly romance / arch-enemies become spouses / childish bickering
In the eyes of outsiders, Chen Manyun and Jiang Sui are the quintessential childhood sweethearts, close since they were little. They'd known each other since they were in diapers, and attended the same schools from kindergarten through high school.
In reality, they had never gotten along. Each thought the other was a persistent nuisance, and whenever they met, sparks flew.
At twenty-five, Jiang Sui lost his memory in an accident. He forgot everything except Chen Manyun.
"You're my wife," Jiang Sui declared, clinging to her shamelessly.
"Wife, you can spend all my salary!"
"Wife, I miss you so much."
"Wife, don't be mean to me, sob."
"Wife, wife, wife, wife, wife..."

As the only person Jiang Sui remembered, Chen Manyun had no choice but to follow the doctor's orders and put up with him staying by her side.
She took him to the schoolyard where they'd once fought, then to the little park where they'd used to stroll, helping him search for fragments of his memory.
Amnesiac Jiang Sui was like a clingy, silly fool who did whatever she said. Chen Manyun had an idea and narrowed her eyes slyly.
"Link your salary card to my phone."
"Okay!"
"Wash my feet."
"Okay!"
"Do a belly dance."
"...Okay!"
They went everywhere together and spent every day side by side. Somewhere along the way, Chen Manyun accidentally got herself tangled up in it, too.
She felt his abs.
She kissed him.
She slept with him.
All in all, it felt pretty good, so she lazily accepted his repeated calls of "wife."
One day, three months later, Chen Manyun happened to discover Jiang Sui's secret and flew into a rage. "Had enough of pretending? Was it fun to play me?"
Jiang Sui hurried to explain. "I didn't..."
Chen Manyun cut him off coldly. "We're over."
Jiang Sui went deathly pale.

Cold on the outside, warm inside × clingy silly fool
A few things to know before reading:
1. The amnesia is real, and he will recover.
2. The male lead isn't a suave, overpowered type. He's a silly, loyal puppy.
3. This is a story focused on the two of them and their everyday life. Much of the amnesia treatment is made up by the author, so don't expect airtight logic.
