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!

The Mother and Daughter's Abundant Selflessness and Perseverance

Calix went outside to look for Director Li, intending to lay the sleeping Calliope in a more comfortable place. He smiled at the older lady once he spotted her on a bench nearby. 

"How is Calliope?" asked Director Li as she returned Calix's smile. Rising to her feet, she approached the younger man, "Has she calmed down?"

Calix appeared earlier than Director Li expected. It hadn't been an hour from the time she left the office. She thought the husband and wife would spend a longer time to comfort Calliope.

"She's sleeping. She cried so much earlier," Calix let out faint laughter, recalling what had just unfolded in the last hour, "But, she didn't reject us. We believe we'll get to talk to her better after she wakes up."

Calix filled Director Li in with more details. But, he hadn't brought up the topic of bringing Calliope home with them yet. He planned to talk more to the child before deciding on anything.
