Leslie let out a chuckle. Reaching for Calix's arm, she said, "Honey, don't worry too much. Dr. Mo will monitor us as well. We also will plan carefully, okay?"
Dr. Mo also thought the same way Leslie did. She had always known how attentive Mr. Xu was to his wife but, seeing it time and again made her wish for their constant happiness.

----------
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.

"For ten years, I have loved you in vain. Now, my love has withered."
Liliana Xin was treated like wallpaper in her four years of marriage with her CEO husband Asher Shen, despite her best efforts to build a happy home.
She thought she could endure his neglect, but when a miscarriage got her nothing but a cold shoulder from her husband, Liliana decided enough was enough!
"Divorce me this instant."
What's the use of wallowing in self-pity? Shouldn't she be her own boss and lead a life without begging for a man's love anymore? It was time for her to squeeze out massive alimony from this apathetic man and leave to become a successful woman on her own!
On her healing journey, Liliana crossed paths with Lucas Liu. The younger man had the same forlorn look in his eyes, reminding Liliana of her misery.
"Join me. I'll make you more powerful." She promised, wanting to save him to repay him for his kindness. He was there for her at her lowest.
With Lucas and her friends, Liliana continued moving forward. She didn't look back at the people who had never cherished her. They were no longer important to her.
But there's someone that wasn't happy with this new development. Asher reappeared, his frosty cold mask was replaced with deep regret and longing.
"I was wrong. Please, come back! I'll do anything!"
Liliana scoffed, turning her back on her first love. She won't repeat the same mistake of loving him ever again.

Born as the Yuasa family's illegitimate child, Yuasa Shouko was grateful for having a loving half-sister and caring aunt. Yet, she was utterly dismayed when her evil father and stepmother wanted to sell her off to a violent young master.
But, why did she suddenly wake up to five years in the future?
And, since when did she get married to Kashino Kyoya, the young master of the Kashino family? Wasn't he supposed to marry her half-sister?
Shouko lost all the memories of the prior years. Despite that, Kyoya's gentle and respectful treatment put her at ease as she scoured the waters of her lost memories. She also gained a more supportive family at the same time.
Yet...
As time went by, Shouko realized Kyoya and everyone were hiding a dark secret from her.
What made him so scared?
What led to her loss of memories?
**********
Yuasa Shouko:
Throughout her life, she always felt like she was standing above the ocean. While nervously waiting for the ocean to swallow her whole, she still pushed herself to bravely dance over the surface, enjoying her life.
It was not until one day when she woke up that she realized she had lost a portion of her life.
And then there was him. The one man who was patiently guiding her back to the shore even at the risk of drowning himself.
"You know, I am jealous of my past self because she experienced the love you gave her. I want to remember my feelings but... it's only void in my mind. What should I do?"
Kashino Kyoya:
He has closed off his heart since he knew even his closest person could throw him away.
He thought her appearance was just a trivial addition to his life. Little did he expect she could crack open the hard shell covering his heart.
For the first time, he chose to allow himself another chance to love and be loved by someone. But, he never thought to have his hope shattered once his existence was erased from her mind.
Facing the new beginning, he vowed to make her happier and loved.
"No matter who you are, the past you or the one with me right now, I love every part of you. So, don't be afraid. I won't ever make you question your trust in me."
