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!

He Won't Bring a Wife Home Soon

Calix and Leslie promised to look into suitable kindergartens for Calliope, much to the little one's excitement.

"Hehe, thank you, Papa and Mama~"

Calix and Leslie smiled at one another, their thoughts reflected in their eyes.

Even though they were worried about placing her among the children of the elites, the husband and wife didn't want to dampen their daughter's joy.

Calliope openly verbalized the request with the hope it would be granted. Calix and Leslie guessed their daughter was eager to learn and make friends, especially after leaving her old friends at the orphanage.

"Poppy, wanna help Papa wash the dishes?" Calix rose to his feet. He started gathering the bowls and plates, "We can play puzzles or watch TV after this."

"Help! Poppy will help!"

A happy Calliope hurriedly finished her drink before sliding down the chair. Calix and Leslie let the little one assist in putting the dishes on the food trolley.
