Win My Husband Over to Find My Child

Witty FL x Adorkable ML + a cute bun + a talking crochet fox ---------- After the sudden death of her boyfriend, Leslie Song has been single-handedly raising her precious little daughter Calliope. It’s a difficult life, but it’s a happy one. A freak accident puts an end to that. As Leslie lies dying on the road, watching Calliope breathe her last, she curses her helplessness. Calliope’s crochet fox seems to hear her. It opens its mouth and asks, “Do you want to see your daughter again? If so, follow me. Her soul has already left for another world.” Leslie agrees. That’s the last thing she remembers before losing consciousness. When she opens her eyes again, she finds herself—or rather, her soul—standing beside her unconscious body on a hospital bed. “How is this supposed to help me find Calliope!” she exclaims. “This is not your body. Your body is dead. This is my original host, Charlene Li,” explains the toy fox. “You can possess her body to find Calliope, but if you do, you must finish her uncompleted mission for her.” “And what mission is that?” “To marry the second most eligible CEO in the city.” ‘This,’ Leslie concludes, ‘is a scam.’ But she has no other choice. ********** Meanwhile, the second most eligible bachelor in the city, Calix Xu, is patting himself on the back for thwarting his grandmother’s attempts to marry him off. After exhausting all of his tricks and excuses, he has resorted to marrying the comatose daughter of the Li family. Calix smiles, pleased with himself, "Aren't I smart? Grandmother can do nothing now." But… why is he seeing his newly-wedded wife hovering beside her own body? Before he can react, his wife—the moving one—floats towards him. "Husband! Help me find my child!" “Your child?” Calix asks weakly before doing the only reasonable thing he can do in such a situation. He faints. ---------- WSA 2024 entry!

She Missed Going Out When the Sun Was Out

True to Calix's words, the gym in the first basement was converted to a rehabilitation treatment room for Leslie.

A group of people came the next day, Sunday. They were assigned the task of realizing his vision.

"It will be more convenient for you. You don't have to hurry to the hospital back and forth many times a week. Doesn't it mean you can quickly return to your room to rest?"

Those were Calix's answers when Leslie inquired about the importance of him doing this. She didn't want to trouble him more than necessary—not after already asking him for many favors—but, he reassured her that everything was fine.

"I'm doing this for myself, okay? I'll get good publicity if people know how considerate I am to my wife. I won't get beaten and nagged by my grandma too."

Calix's excuses cracked Leslie up. Of course, she couldn't laugh out loud. Still, her heart was tickled by how hilarious the man's reasons were.
