Que Yuening had been a stand-in for someone's moonlight for three years, working diligently and conscientiously, never arriving late or leaving early. But lately, a major problem had come up: his boss had been in a car accident, and not only had he lost his memory, he had also developed aphasia!
Well, he had never been much of a talker to begin with. Now he really couldn't speak.
Que Yuening kept the moonlight's persona firmly in mind: a gentle, aloof beauty... Well, aside from "beauty," neither of the other two words had anything to do with him.
But he was good at acting!
The hospital room was quiet. His boss leaned against the bed, looking around the room before fixing his gaze on Que Yuening.
Me? Me?
Que Yuening froze, then immediately put on a smile and walked over to sit by the bed with elegant composure. He took his boss's hand, eyes brimming with tears. "Shao Heng, you're finally awake."
Li Shaoheng, whose sleeve he had just used to wipe his nose: ...What a bad act.
He had been the moonlight for three years and married for three years.
Now that his boss had lost his memory, Que Yuening only cared whether his soon-to-expire contract would be renewed. But his boss seemed to have forgotten about the contract and thought they were really married.
No, no. Que Yuening rummaged through the boxes and cabinets until he found the previous agreement, then held it out to his boss with a fawning smile. "Boss, this is the stand-in agreement. Will you renew it this year?"
Li Shaoheng's gaze fell on the four large characters in the title: "Marriage Agreement." He fell silent.
"Don't be fooled by the title. It's a marriage agreement, but it's really about being a stand-in. You know what a stand-in is, right? I stand in for someone else. The person I stand in for is your moonlight, you know? You have to understand, playing your moonlight is really hard. I even got injured on the job, so that should count as..."
After a long explanation, Que Yuening's mouth had gone dry, but Li Shaoheng still hadn't said a word.
"Come on, boss, say something!"
Li Shaoheng: ...
Objectively speaking, he couldn't say anything.
Unable to settle the agreement and with no money to leave, Que Yuening had no choice but to stay by his boss's side for the time being and wait for an opportunity.
His boss had a bad memory, couldn't speak, didn't like going home, and was generous.
Thinking about it that way, Que Yuening wasn't getting such a bad deal.
He waited and waited until his boss was close to recovering his memories. Then Que Yuening was horrified to discover that his belly seemed to be swelling!
Damn it!
No matter. Even with a big belly, he could still run away!

When Li Shaoheng woke up after the car accident, he was told that his wife had changed. He seemed vaguely lifeless now and kept saying things Li Shaoheng couldn't understand.
It wasn't a bad change, and Li Shaoheng didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Until his wife brought out the marriage agreement for the third time and insisted it was a stand-in agreement for someone's moonlight.
Li Shaoheng finally lost his patience. With a dark expression, he pinned him to the sofa and gave him a thorough lesson.
Li Shaoheng rasped, "Ning Bao, tell me, are you my wife or not?"
The pen fell from Que Yuening's hand. "...Huh!"
Tips:
1. The love interest has no moonlight. He is devoted in both body and heart. Both are each other's only one.
2. The love interest is not mute and will recover.
3. The characters are not perfect. Not suitable for readers with extreme character preferences.
4. To be added.
Theme: Stay positive and full of hope.
