Chapter 794


    After approximately half an hour, Stanley Batton finished cooking a hot bowl of seafood noodles.


    Carefully, he brought it into the bedroom.


    As soon as he did so, the entire room was filled with a fragrant scent.


    By now, Stanley had already fully recovered. He looked like his usual self.


    X Quest, who was upied with scrolling through Weibo, felt hungry when she smelled the scent


    of food.


    She immediately put her phone down and shifted to the side of the bed.


    Very quickly, Stanley ced the bowl of noodles on the nightstand. “Eat…” He said.


    As usual, the noodles he cooked had the perfect look, smell, and taste.


    It was as if the hot steam from the bowl of noodles was able to make X’s chest feel warm


    instantly.


    “Aren’t you going to eat?” X asked when she saw that there was only one pair of chopsticks.


    “Nah… I’m tired,” Stanley said before lifting the duvet away and lying down. He closed his eyes right


    away.


    “Take the bowl out once you finish eating. I’ll clean it tomorrow,” he said.


    “Alright.” X nodded before picking up the chopsticks and spoon, and she started to eat.


    Stanley very quickly fell asleep.


    Once X was done eating the bowl of noodles, she brought the bowl and utensils downstairs for


    cleaning. After that, she returned to bed.


    Just as Xy down, Stanley leaned over and subconsciously pulled her into his arms. She let him


    hold her while she wrapped her arms around his body.


    At some point, X began to feel sleepy and nodded off too.


    ***


    The next morning, X reached her hands forward right after waking up.


    However, she couldn’t feel anything apart from the cold bedsheet.


    After stretching a little, she sat herself up and looked around.


    Stanley was neither in the room nor on the balcony. His phone was missing too.


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    There was a Post-It note on the nightstand. “I have to leave for some work. Sort breakfast out on


    your own.”


    X stretched once more before dragging herself out of bed.


    Beep, beep, beep…


    She was just about to enter the bathroom when her phone started ringing.


    When X saw that it was from an unknown caller, she picked it up anyway.


    “May I speak to Miss X Quest?” A girl with a sweet voice asked.


    “That’s me. May I know who’s calling?” X asked.


    “Miss Quest, how are you? I’m the director of a reality show named ‘Daily Life of a Married Couple’.


    My name is Tina Schumer,” she said.


    X knew about this show. It was the most popr reality show about married couples, and the


    show had celebrity couples participating in it every Monday.


    They filmed the ins and outs of a married couple’s daily life through a reality series format.


    “Director Schumer, how are you? May I know why you are calling me?” X asked.


    “Here’s the thing. We would like to invite you and Mr. Batton to be part of our show because you


    have been very poprtely. Many people have been tagging us online and asking us to invite you


    onto the show. Money won’t be an issue. Please make any offer you’d like,” Tina said


    straightforwardly.


    “That won’t be necessary. My husband and I prefer to keep our lives private.” X refused without


    even thinking about it.


    “Miss Quest, won’t you give it a thought?” Tina asked.


    “No, thank you,” X said.


    She knew Stanley’s personality very well. He definitely wouldn’t like something like this.


    After saying a few more things to dissuade the woman, X quickly hung up the phone and walked


    into the bathroom to freshen up.


    After that, she began putting on makeup in front of the dressing table.


    Beep, beep, beep…


    Just as she finished putting on some liquid foundation, her phone started ringing again.
