A circumstellar corona is proposed for a strange quark-cluster star during an accretion phase, that could be essential to understand the observations of the puzzling symbiotic X-ray system, 4U 1700+24. The state of cold matter at supranuclear density is still an important matter of debate, and one of the certain consequences of strange star as the nature of pulsars is the self-bound on surface which makes extremely low-mass compact objects unavoidable. In principle, both the redshifted O VIII Ly-alpha emission line and the change of the black-body radiation area could be understand naturally if 4U 1700+24 is low-mass quark-cluster star in case of wind-accretion.
