Motivation To Win Competition

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!

"You are my treasure, and anyone who touches you is stealing," he said, his possessiveness deep in his bones. That's why, in her past life, Lu Fengxuan ran away desperately until, on her deathbed, she came to a sudden realization. Reborn, she clung tightly to her husband's golden thigh, simultaneously tormenting scumbags and lovey-dovey couples without any delay. Dared they call her stupid, unruly, selfish, and greedy?

The lord picked up his child, a smile of utter indulgence on his face, "I've spoiled them. Any objections?"

Every villain has a backstory—a tragic loss, a moment of rejection, or a life tainted by hardship. They are shaped by the cruelty of the world, pushed to the edge by a string of misfortunes. But not me. I am not a product of circumstance or suffering. I am the villain by 'choice'. I have no excuse, no sob story to explain my path. I embrace it because it is my dream, my desire, my rebellion against the predictable, the expected. I do not need a reason to be dark—I choose this. And that, in itself, makes me dangerous.

Lin Shirong was reborn in the summer of 1980. In his previous life, he had poor judgment when it came to people and relied too much on matchmakers. This led to his children having unhappy marriages, two useless sons-in-law, and several daughters-in-law who turned the family into a chaotic mess. Determined to change the course of his family’s future, Lin Shirong decided that in this life, he would personally find suitable partners for his children. Years later, during a gathering with old friends, the topic of conversation turned to their daughters-in-law and whether they were filial. The old men couldn't help but brag about their own families. Lin Shirong waited patiently for their boasting to run its course. Then, with a knowing smile, he took out his phone and posted a status update on WeChat Moments, writing: "I’m feeling restless staying at home all day—thinking of going out for a walk." The post barely had a chance to settle before his five daughters-in-law, scattered across different cities, started calling him one after another: The eldest daughter-in-law: “Dad, where do you want to go? I’ll pick you up right away!” The second daughter-in-law: “Dad, the Bird’s Nest Stadium just finished construction. Let me come get you so we can go see it together!” The third daughter-in-law: “Dad, among the Five Great Mountains, you haven’t visited Huashan yet. The weather is perfect right now. How about I pick you up and we go on a little trip?” The fourth daughter-in-law: [Her call was so enthusiastic it left no room for doubt.] The youngest daughter-in-law: [Equally excited and eager to make plans.] The scene left Lin Shirong’s old friends utterly speechless. Their earlier boasts paled in comparison, and their envy was unmistakable as their faces turned red!
