📕My CEO wife lost her memory and asked for divorce—soon the whole city knew she was chasing me back

Main plot

George, a low-key engineer from a mid-tier family, is dragged to a South City charity banquet and unintentionally catches the attention of Willow Liu—an ultra-powerful, cold “Iron Rose” CEO. After a car accident, Willow’s memory resets: she’s convinced by a divorce, demands George sign the papers, and acts as if their relationship has vanished—though it doesn’t truly disappear.

When her amnesia fades, we learn she had been pursuing George all along. Later, she tries to “pursue” him back—only to realize she initially tricked him into marriage under the cover of a political alliance.

Key highlights & notable moments

• Banquet “chosen one” moment: George thinks he’s only there to fill in for his brother, quietly sipping champagne—until Willow walks in and locks eyes with him for a split second that unsettles him.
• Willow’s investigation + surprise approach: Willow doesn’t just notice him—she confirms his identity and background, then bluntly tells him, “Your eyes are very beautiful.” George is stunned, and David immediately recognizes Willow is into him.
• The “family dinner” reveal: George realizes Willow orchestrates everything when Pablo Liu warmly talks to him, and the dishes at dinner are exactly what George likes. Then Pablo states the point: Willow has met a “young man”—that young man is George.
• Willow’s commitment at lightning speed: After George hesitates (“we’ve only met twice”), Willow corrects calmly: three times—banquet, dinner, exhibition—and proposes direct marriage.
• Marriage happens fast: Registration goes smoothly in under 20 minutes. That night, Willow is affectionate, shy, and clearly emotionally invested.
• Surveillance-but-sweet dynamic: Post-marriage, George learns Willow monitors his life through a “husband monitor”—a surveillance feed from the living room—because she wants to watch him when he’s home.
• Accident → amnesia → divorce: Willow gets into a traffic accident, suffers temporary memory loss, wakes up not remembering George, and demands a divorce immediately—plus orders him to stay away from the hospital.
• The divorce scene almost breaks George: When they return to the Civil Affairs Bureau, Willow repeatedly tries to avoid signing (even “forgets” documents—though they’re clearly there). The disconnect is temporary, but her feelings (or instinct) keep interfering.
• The real reversal: After “property division” dinners meant to pull George back in, Willow admits the truth: she isn’t pursuing assets—she’s trying to get him back because she still feels connected to him even without memory.
• She confesses the “scam” in comedy mode: Willow realizes she effectively tricked George into marriage by pretending it was political. George points out she told him that story, so he accepted it—then she’s mortified.
• Willow “learns to pursue”: George tells her to pursue him with sincerity. Willow responds with classic romantic gestures—breakfast delivery, restaurant reservations, flower gifts, and even a public sign (“George I’m pursuing you”)—and George can’t help but melt.
• Final emotional payoff: In the epilogue, Willow dreams of their first meeting and remembers: no matter how many times she loses her memory, she’ll always fall for him at first sight.

Jokes / lighthearted beats

• David’s comic relief: He exaggerates and can’t believe what he’s seeing, like, “Willow is into you… golden ticket.”
• George’s repeated confusion: He keeps thinking, “This doesn’t make sense,” especially when Willow’s plans are too perfect—like serving his favorite dishes without him ever saying it.
• Willow’s public pursuit as a laugh moment: CEO-level powerful, yet incredibly overtly romantic—drawing crowds and stares.

Main emotional / relationship arc

• “Cold CEO” facade → warmth and attachment (public Willow vs. private Willow)
• Memory loss threat (divorce request as a tragic reset)
• Destiny/instinct over paperwork (even during amnesia, Willow can’t fully follow through)
• Truth and repentance: She admits she manipulated him, then spends the rest of the story trying to win him back properly.
