Chapter 979
At this moment, a thought suddenly urred to X Quest. “Being afraid of something melting in
one’s mouth, and also being afraid of it falling from one’s hand.”
This was how much Stanley Batton doted on her.
X stood still without moving, allowing Stanley to wash her hands and wipe them dry for her.
He was meticulous, almost as if he was cleaning dust off an antique item.
After cleaning X’s hands, Stanley picked her up like a princess and walked into the dining room.
He then gently ced her in her usual seat.
After that, Stanley sat down in his seat and ced the ingredients into the broth for X.
Throughout the process, X was only responsible for eating.

After the wine and food, X went into the study, switched on theputer, and checked her email.
She wanted to find out if the top domestic and international hematologists she had emailed for help
had replied to her.
However, there was nothing in the mailbox except her work emails.
X let out a long sigh. After that, she continued to search the inte for information about
Stanley’s medical condition.
Despite her effort, she couldn’t find any useful information about his condition. Stanley’s situation
was very rare, and X couldn’t find anybody else who had the same condition as him.
Finally, X began to feel her head aching. She slowly turned off theputer before leaning into
her chair to rest with her eyes closed.
Although it might seem like there wasn’t any possibility of curing Stanley’s disease, X still didn’t
want to give up so easily.
She had to cure him, no matter what price she had to pay or what difficulties she had to face.
After resting for a while, she got up and began to look through some medical books she had
brought back from Country Y. These were medical books that recorded variousplicated
diseases domestically and abroad.
X refused to believe that Stanley was the only person who suffered from this unique medical
condition.
After another half an hour—
Stanley walked in with a ss of warm milk.
X instantly put down the medical book she was holding and smiled slightly at Stanley. “Are you
done with work?” she asked.
“Yeah.” Stanley stepped forward and ced the ss in front of her. “Have a ss of milk… It helps
you sleep.”
“Thank you, honey,” X said.
“You’re wee,” Stanley replied.
He noticed the name of the medical book X was reading. ‘The Book of Ancient and Modern
Diseases.’
Stanley frowned a little. “Are you still searching for information rted to my illness?” he asked.
“Yeah…”
“Stop searching. You won’t find anything. Grandpa has been researching for many years, but he
hasn''t found anything at all. My illness can’t be cured,” Stanley said calmly but with disappointment
in his eyes. However, it very quickly disappeared.
His slightest of emotions were very easily detected by X.

She knew exactly what he was feeling.
She also knew that Stanley’s nonchnce and indifference toward his illness were all faked.
However, X didn’t probe any further. Instead, she slowly stood up and walked over to Stanley
before gently hugging him. “I told you, I won’t give up so easily. I must cure you…” She said.
“Don’t waste your time and effort. I can’t be cured…” Stanley gently ruffled her hair.
“Don’t worry. With my illness, as long as I have blood, it’ll be fine… Moreover, Grandpa has also
carried out relevant check-ups on me. This illness won’t be passed on to the next generation,”
Stanley added.
“Even so, I still want to cure you. We must be hopeful…” X insisted.
“Alright, alright. As long as you’re happy. Now, drink the milk ande to bed with me,” Stanley
said.
X dutifully let go of Stanley. She then picked up the warm ss of milk and drank it all in front of
him.
Although there were milk stains above X’s upper lip, she waspletely unaware. She smiled
and shook the ss. “I’m done. Shall we go to bed?” X asked.
Stanley smiled affectionately. He reached out to hug X before kissing all the milk away.
After that, he picked X up and sat her on the desk. “Before that, let’s sleep here for a while…”
