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!

A Tempest Came Raging to the Manor

Despite the initial obstacle, Leslie finally enjoyed her time being at the poolside when Aunt Wendy came with the food.

The housekeeper prepared two types of sandwiches, one jug of watermelon juice and a huge bottle of mineral water. She put thin slices of strawberries into the juice.

"Mr. Calix," Aunt Wendy called Calix who was gliding through the water, "I've brought four glasses for you."

"Thank you!" Calix shouted from the middle of the swimming pool. Water droplets dripped from his face, "I'll bring the plates downstairs myself."

Aunt Wendy nodded. She glanced at the two glasses, confusion was written on her face.

"Why does he need four glasses?" Aunt Wendy shook her head in helplessness, thinking Calix rare, "Never mind. The drama will start soon."

"..."

Leslie refrained from laughing. Aunt Wendy was certainly bewildered by Calix's request. The housekeeper wouldn't ever know that one of the glasses was for her, a soul.
