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!

Did Mrs. Xu Save the Galaxy in Her Previous Life?

"I'm gonna do my work now. You can go to my lounge if you wanna rest. I told Edward to prepare a few things for you."

While saying that, Calix pointed in a direction. Leslie's eyes traced his finger before they landed on a dark-colored wooden door.

The said lounge was on the left side of the office. Leslie guessed the huge windows expanded into Calix's private resting room. 

"What kind of things?" asked Leslie, her eyes twinkling curiously, "I think I heard Edward mentioned romance novels just now."

Calix chuckled. He initially thought Leslie didn't hear what Edward said as her mind should be focused on scouring the place.

"I told him to prepare some books and board games for you. Who knows? You might be bored ah. You can watch the TV too if you want."

Calix turned around after finishing his words. He walked away from the glass wall, heading to his work desk. The beaming sun cast shadows elongating on the floor.
