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 Gossiping Relatives

At nine on the next morning, the branch families started to appear one by one at the Xu family's ancestral home. More vehicles were parked in the garage while the others left after dropping the people off.

The atmosphere of the massive traditional courtyard home became livelier with more people—adults and children—gathering there. Animated chatter and joyous laughter blended together, harmonizing in the air.

The maids and other attendants were preoccupied from the crack of dawn. Among them all, the kitchen team was the busiest one. They needed to prepare enough food for tens of people including the main branch.

"Wow~ So lively."

A carefree Leslie floated in the air, wandering around the giant mansion. She didn't feel like following CEO Xu today.

Calix and the rest of his family—main branch—gathered in one of the drawing rooms. They entertained the visiting relatives. Some of them scattered to other places within the mansion.
