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 a Grim Reaper Visit Your Dream?

Calix decided to follow Xander to the latter's car before shooting him any questions. Edward and one of Xander's personal assistants, Mr. Wei followed from behind as they headed to the basement parking lot.

The basement was quiet, save for the occasional low hum of the engines coming from the coming and going vehicles. Two security stood safeguarding the entrance that connected the complex to the parking lot.

The lights above basked on the men's figures as they walked in silence. Calix eventually saw Xander's driver, Mr. Gong standing outside his friend's luxury sedan.

"Good evening, CEO Qin and CEO Xu."

Calix returned the middle-aged man's greeting. He was familiar with Mr. Gong because the latter worked as Xander's personal chauffeur for years. 

Mr. Gong joined Edward and Mr. Wei waiting outside the car. The former had already heard from the personal assistant that their boss would be having a private talk with Calix in the car.
