The Universe’s Number One Healing Baby

Huo Lin choked.

Since he was young, he had always loved eating, but not excessively.

This child who loved food was really well taken care of by Uncle Zhan.

Looking at the puzzled expression on the little child’s face, Huo Lin thought for a moment and explained vaguely, “Not everyone loves eating. Anyway, when we go back, I’ll create an account for you to try.”

Huo Lin wasn’t sure how much money Uncle Zhan was making now, but he was worried that Uncle Zhan would have a hard time earning money in the future and wouldn’t have enough to spend on the little child.

If they could record a video while the little child was eating, perhaps the little child could earn back the money spent on taking care of him.

The possible first part-time job as a food broadcaster couldn’t be realized for now.

After patting the little child’s belly for the second time, Huo Lin took away the little child’s bowl and said, “Alright, your tummy is already full and round. No need to eat anymore.”

The little child, upon hearing this, looked at the bowl with reluctance.

Huo Lin brought the well-fed little child back to the room. While he was packing things up, he called Auben over and said, “Have you noticed anything unusual while following us?”

“Nothing.”

After Auben replied, he paused for a few seconds and reported something, “By the way, Your Highness, there was a protest march organized on a street today.”

“Huh?”

Huo Lin furrowed his brows and asked, “What kind of march?”

Auben continued, “It was a protest by the conservatives of the Sixth Planet, opposing the chip implantation program for humans. They believe that the human chip implantation plan is too dangerous and should be completely terminated.”

“The situation between the two sides is becoming intense. Your Highness, we should return to White Mist Star sooner.”

Listening to Auben’s report, Huo Lin made a sound of agreement. Though he was young, he often accompanied his father and watched him handle state affairs.

Every country had its own thorny problems, even the Empire couldn’t guarantee the absence of turmoil.

Huo Lin was not afraid of this.

But now that he was accompanied by the little child, he wanted to be cautious: “Once Ningning’s mecha is ready, we’ll immediately go back.”

“Understood.”

The conversation between the two did not affect the little child, who was watching videos in the star device. The little child leaned against the pillow his brother had propped up for him, with one chubby leg resting on a toy and the other on the bedsheet. He watched the videos in the star device and occasionally burst into giggles.

The laughter of the little child echoed in the room, bringing a sense of tranquility to Huo Lin’s heart.

The atmosphere here was warm and harmonious. On the other side, the man who had returned to the palace after taking a bath and changing into thoroughly disinfected clothes walked into a long corridor.

The corridor was adorned with various gemstones, and the mouth of each gem was as bright as a lantern, illuminating the passage.

On the floor of the corridor, there were pristine and soft blankets, which were acquired from other planets. The fur of these blankets came from the shed feathers of a rare bird species. This kind of feather was light and soft and had to undergo a complex process of forty-nine steps before it could be woven into a small piece of blanket.

Now, if this long blanket were put up for auction, it would fetch an astronomical price.

Gemstones, carpets, and all this was still not considered precious.

As they walked further into the long corridor, at the end of it stood an indescribably luxurious and extravagant palace. This palace was visibly more luxurious than the outer “palace.”

Above the palace, there was a “sun” that was indistinguishable from the real sunlight. The only difference was that the sunlight from this “sun” was more comfortable in temperature.

In addition to the “sun” above his head, the flowers and plants in the garden were also rare species that were even thought to be extinct by the outside world.

Inside the garden, there was sparkling, clear water.

In the water, there were several protruding stones with engravings of mermaids.

Walking along the jade-paved path, passing through the garden and around the pavilion, he finally arrived at the palace. Outside the palace, colorful silk fabrics fluttered. Needless to ask, the material of these silk fabrics was not ordinary either.

In this luxurious environment, Raphael, the King of the Sixth Planet, appeared surprisingly shabby. The fabric of his clothes was soft, but it couldn’t compare to the colorful gauze hanging at the entrance just now. Fortunately, Raphael didn’t mind.

He walked all the way without stopping for a second. After a few more minutes, he arrived at his destination: a large bed inside the palace. The bed was surrounded by four curtains, and a faint figure could be seen within the curtains.

After Raphael saw the figure inside, he remained silent and waited for several seconds. After a few more seconds, he softly called out, “Anno, are you awake?”

There was no response from the person inside. Raphael pondered for a moment and then reached out to pull back the curtain.

The curtain was opened.

The person lying on the soft bed had their eyes tightly closed, and their delicate face showed a hint of sickly fragility. Their skin was very fair, almost transparent.

Raphael sighed and sat down, holding the person’s hand.

“Why are you sleeping longer and longer?”

Raphael murmured softly, not expecting the person in front of him to answer his question. In situations like this, he had plenty of experience.

Just wait patiently.

Raphael didn’t have to wait too long this time. After a few minutes, the person on the bed suddenly furrowed their brows. Then he covered his lips and sat up, freeing his other hand from Raphael’s grip. “There’s a smell.”

Raphael: “...”

Without saying a word, Raphael stood up and distanced himself from the person. “I’ve already taken a bath when I arrived. Wait for me a moment, and I’ll take another one.”

After Raphael took another bath, the person on the bed still had slightly furrowed brows, but at least they didn’t urge him to leave.

Raphael personally prepared some food, using extremely clean and precious ingredients. However, even so, Anno had no appetite while eating.

“Take one more bite.”

Raphael personally fed him and said, “The vegetables I had people cultivate will be ready for harvest soon. These vegetables have a nutritional value that is similar to the ones you used to eat in the palace.”

Anno, looking listless and lacking energy, turned his face away.

The method of coaxing him to eat with the phrase “one more bite” didn’t work for him. No matter how Raphael tried to feed him, if he didn’t want to eat, he wouldn’t eat.

Raphael watched his increasingly pale complexion and felt a growing sense of anxiety and unease.

He knew that compared to the royal palace Anno used to reside in, the current palace seemed modest. He was also aware that the precious ingredients he had gone to great lengths to procure couldn’t stimulate Anno’s appetite.

However, he had already done his best to provide Anno with an environment that he could somewhat adapt to.

“Raphael, you don’t have to treat me like this.”

Even with a weak complexion, Anno remained stunningly beautiful, fragile yet exquisite. This kind of beauty made Raphael always afraid that he wouldn’t be able to keep him.

Meeting Raphael’s gaze, Anno’s ethereal voice gently sounded as he tried to persuade him, “I don’t have much time left to live. You don’t have to expend so much energy on me.”

His royal lineage had been annihilated, his people were gone, and his subjects were no more.

In this world, he had nothing left to cling to except for Raphael right before his eyes. However, over the years, he watched Raphael tirelessly taking care of him, but he had little to offer in return. Occasionally, he used his mental power to calm Raphael’s restless mind, but as a result, he almost died afterwards.

Raphael wouldn’t allow him to use healing mental power again.

But in this state, it seemed as if he had even less meaning to exist.

With these thoughts in mind, his eyelashes trembled lightly as he calmly and cruelly uttered, “Let’s end our partnership. Once we end our partnership, you can search for a new queen.”

His identity, Raphael dared not reveal.

They had already become partners long ago, but Raphael couldn’t publicly announce himself as the queen.

“I disagree.”

Raphael forced a smile, skipping the topic of dissolving their partnership and bringing up a new, slightly more cheerful topic to share with Anno.

“Do you know what happened to me when I went out today?”

Raphael held Anno and walked slowly in the garden, whispering to him about the interesting encounter he had today. “That chubby little kid, when we reached the hotel entrance, secretly lifted his little behind and bumped into my arm.”

Anno enjoyed hearing stories about young children.

As Raphael narrated, Anno’s lips curved slightly. He leaned against Raphael’s chest and softly said, “Such a chubby little one must be easy to take care of.”

Unlike their royal family... each one more difficult to care for than the last.

At the time of the royal family’s downfall, he was hidden and frozen by the people. Later, by a fortunate coincidence, he was awakened by Raphael and carefully nurtured, which allowed him to survive until now.

He had never seen any surviving members of his own clan. According to the available information, there were no survivors from their royal family.

“Raphael, my sister also has a young child.”

Anno thought of his twin sister and her young child, and his heart ached again. “That young one is the healthiest among our royal family. When he was born, he weighed a full four catties.”

Raphael: “...”

Raphael tightly sealed his lips, afraid to speak.

He was afraid that if he opened his mouth, he wouldn’t be able to stop himself from telling Anno, “Darling, a four-catty baby doesn’t meet our health standards yet.”

He held back for a while before changing the topic. “The chubby little kid I told you about is currently staying at Ram’s place. When I go there later, I’ll take a couple of pictures to show you. How does that sound?”

Anno responded with a, “Hmm.”

Raphael noticed that Anno seemed tired after wandering around the garden, so he decided to stop and return to the bed, holding Anno in his arms for rest.

Inside the hotel.

An adorable child, playing with a handheld gaming device while leaning against a pillow, had a cheek puffed up on the right side from eating candy. Even though his eyes were hurting, he was reluctant to let go. It was Huo Lin, who had finished packing his luggage, walking over to take the gaming device from him.

“Ningning, did you forget what your big brother told you again?”

Huo Lin furrowed his brows and said, “Playing with the gaming device for too long is not good for your eyes.”

The little child rubbed his eyes and climbed out of bed, obediently saying, “Ningning won’t play anymore.”

After all, he had already finished watching cartoons today!

Huo Lin handed the luggage to Auben to carry, while he held the little child and went out. Their destination this time was Grandpa Ram’s house in the alley.

Before leaving, the little child first checked the snacks and pastries he had brought. Upon discovering that he had enough food, he finally felt relieved.

Over an hour later.

The little child and his big brother settled into Grandpa Ram’s house.

As soon as they moved in, the polite little child shared his pastries with Grandpa, saying, “Uncle Ling Qi made them. They taste really good!”

Grandpa Ram took a bite and indeed found them delicious.

Grandpa Ram enjoyed working in the yard, and the little child brought a small stool and sat next to him, holding his chubby face while watching Grandpa work.

The little child had never seen the process of building mecha, so he was extremely curious about it.

“Ningning, go play with your big brother.”

“No, I want to play with Grandpa.”

Ram really liked this little child who accompanied him, but he also worried about the child’s safety staying here. When he’s making mecha parts, he needed electricity.

Moreover, there were many wires during work, posing significant safety hazards.

Ram looked at the child, who was currently holding his chubby face and looking quite obedient, so he hesitated a bit. “Ningning, you have to sit still and not move around, okay?”

The little child nodded earnestly. “Mm! Ningning will be good!”

After making sure the child promised to behave, Ram continued to focus on his work. Making custom mecha was not an easy task.
