Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 1288

"She even told me that a woman would be in a terrible mood before her period arrives, and she asked me to let you have your way...

"She also said... I shouldn't fight back if I get hit, and I mustn't retort when I get yelled at..." Stanley Batton had a helpless look on his face. When Xyla Quest heard this, she couldn't resist laughing. "Maybe you were adopted, and I'm her biological daughter."

"That really is possible..." Stanley laughed and said.

Speaking of, Xyla only recently talked about having her period with Sharon Lindt. It was brought up casually in a conversation.

She didn't think Sharon would remember it.

In fact, Sharon even reminded Stanley to prepare chicken soup for her.

Xyla felt a warmth in her heart again. "Our mother is the model mother-in-law in Country Z."

"Exactly," Stanley said.

The smile on Xyla's face gradually widened. She hugged Stanley tightly.

"Honey, have you taken your medicine?" Xyla asked.

"Yeah, I have," Stanley said.

"You must take it every day. Since Yaksha mentioned it must be done for fifteen consecutive days, so you mustn't stop. If you skip eating it for a day, something bad might happen..." Xyla said.

"Alright, I know..." Stanley replied softly. After that, he kissed Xyla softly on her forehead. "Alright, go outside. There's a lot of oil and smoke in here. It'll ruin your skin..."

"Okay," Xyla said.

She obediently nodded before reluctantly letting go of Stanley. She then walked out of the kitchen and sat on the soft sofa in the living room. With her laptop in her lap, she logged into League of Legends using one of her many accounts, XQ.

She had registered this account a while ago. For the time being, it was at the Grandmaster rank.

As soon as Xyla entered the game, Alex invited her for a game together.

Xyla instantly accepted the invite.

Soon, the game began...

Alex chose Tahm Kench as the support, while Xyla chose Aphelios as the ADC.

With Alex's support, Xyla was like a fish in water.

Within three minutes, they broke through their opponents' defense in the bottom lane...

The two of them worked together very well, and their opponents struggled to keep up.

With good support, Xyla was able to play very smoothly.

Naturally, it also put her in an excellent mood.

Right then, Stanley walked over with a bowl of ginseng chicken soup.

There was a single ginseng and three pieces of chicken meat in the bowl of light-yellow chicken soup. It looked, smelled, and tasted wholesome.

Seeing that Xyla was occupied, Stanley slowly sat down next to her.

He carefully blew at the chicken soup before feeding Xyla one mouthful at a time.

Meanwhile, Xyla was completely focused on the game. She'd drink whatever Stanley fed him. In fact, she couldn't even be bothered to speak with Stanley.

In the game, Xyla was like a battle god. Wherever she went with Alex, they'd manage to destroy their opponents.

The two of them worked seamlessly together in a miraculous manner of cooperation. Stanley was wholly engrossed in watching them.

Right then, Zack Cassidy's call came in.

Stanley instantly picked it up-

"Mr. Batton, all the high-level executives in Country F's subsidiary company are ready. You may join the teleconference now..." Zack said. "Understood..." Hearing this, Stanley immediately switched on the teleconference with Country F's subsidiary company on his phone. After the video was switched on, a large conference room in Country F's subsidiary company soon came into view.

By then, the seats at a black, spotless, U-shaped conference table were all filled.

Stanley casually placed his phone on the coffee table and used a teacup to hold it up.

After that, he continued to speak as he fed Xyla with the chicken soup...

"Now, executives from each department, give me a summary of your departments' performance..." Stanley said in fluent English. With that, Stanley carefully looked down and carefully blew at the chicken soup in a spoon before bringing it close to Xyla's mouth... Everyone on the screen could see the display of affection between Stanley and Xyla...
