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!

Wall of Flowers

The family of three spent a fulfilling time in the backyard that early morning.

Calix ran one lap around the lake before hurriedly returning to Leslie and Calliope. He carried the little dumpling over his shoulders, taking her to see the lake.

Not long after, Aunt Wendy and Uncle Raymond came to deliver breakfast to the deck. Without wasting time, they enjoyed the porridge, steamed buns and soy milk under the morning sun.

The group of painters arrived ten minutes before the appointed time. They let Calix join them after being asked by the man. 

When the craftsmen transferred their equipment and cans of paints into the empty bedroom, Calix changed his clothes into a worn-out T-shirt and loose pants. He also wore a plain hairband, avoiding his fringes from sticking to his sweaty forehead later.

"Stay with Mama, en? Papa has work to do."

Calix patted Calliope's head twice before entering the empty bedroom.
