The Universe’s Number One Healing Baby

An Nuo still tightly held the chubby little child in his arms, his voice trembling, and his body slightly shaking. This sudden and unexpected recognition left An Nuo completely unprepared.

The chubby little child didn’t quite understand what Uncle An Nuo was saying. Rubbing his eyes, he spoke in a sweet and mellow tone, “Ningning is sleepy.”

After using the healing skill, the little child would sleep for a long time.

The fact that he managed to stay awake this time was quite remarkable. After persisting and telling Uncle An Nuo that he’s sleepy, the little child tilted his head and fell fast asleep on An Nuo’s neck, breathing softly.

An Nuo lowered his head and affectionately kissed the chubby little child’s cheek.

He held onto the little child without letting go, but it was difficult to check on Raphael’s condition while carrying the child in his arms. Raphael was still in a drowsy state, and An Nuo was unsure of his exact condition.

An Nuo glanced at the little child and then at Raphael.

After a few hesitant seconds.

An Nuo, unable to free his hands, gently kicked Raphael, saying, “Raphael, how are you feeling?”

Raphael didn’t respond.

Observing this, An Nuo leaned in and touched his forehead.

“It’s almost healed.”

An Nuo murmured, “Ningning, such a young child, is already capable of using healing power.”

Once An Nuo was certain of Raphael’s safety, he left the room. With his own strength, he couldn’t carry Raphael, so he needed to find someone to help.

Fortunately, the little prince Caesar, who was searching for Ningning, arrived.

“Caesar, can you do me a favor?”

At this moment, Huo Lin still didn’t know what the sleeping child had done, but he had a faint suspicion in his heart. He nodded, lifted Raphael, who was twice his weight, and brought him into An Nuo’s palace.

Under An Nuo’s command, Huo Lin helped Raphael take a bath and disinfect. As for the chubby child, Ningning, who was still sleeping, he didn’t even have a bath and was simply picked up by An Nuo and placed back in bed to continue sleeping.

Hesitant for a moment, Huo Lin asked, “Uncle An Nuo, aren’t you worried that Ningning might be dirty?”

An Nuo gently touched the soft and chubby face of the child and whispered, “He’s not dirty. There’s no odor on him.”

Huo Lin: “...”

Fine then.

After settling Raphael, Huo Lin turned his attention to Ningning, who was still asleep. He felt that something was getting increasingly off. “Uncle An Nuo, has Ningning been sleeping this whole time?”

An Nuo didn’t respond to that question. He only said, “Do you have Zhan Xi’s contact information? I need to talk to him about something.”

Ningning was a child of their royal family, with both a father and a mother. Although his father was a foreigner, someone whom An Nuo didn’t view favorably, he was certain that this man, who was not a good person, was definitely not Zhan Xi.

“Yes.”

Huo Lin gave An Nuo Zhan Xi’s star device number. An Nuo didn’t have a star device himself, so he took out the star device from Raphael’s body and noted down the number.

“Caesar.”

“Yes?”

“Can I trouble you to go outside and fetch something for me?” An Nuo casually mentioned fetching something, clearly using it as an excuse to get Huo Lin to leave.

Understanding his intentions, Huo Lin left obediently.

Once Huo Lin was gone, An Nuo immediately dialed Zhan Xi’s number to video call the other. At the beginning of the call, the other side hung up on him. It took several consecutive attempts before the call was finally answered.

“Hello, who is—who are you?”

After a brief pause, Zhan Xi completed the interrupted sentence, “Why are you video calling me?”

An Nuo introduced himself straightforwardly, saying, “I am An Nuo.”

Zhan Xi was taken aback.

He looked at An Nuo in the video and thought about the words his own child used to praise the other. In that instant, he finally understood how his child could praise someone for so long.

This An Nuo was undeniably beautiful, to the point of being excessively so.

Zhan Xi didn’t have any romantic thoughts about such beauty; he simply continued to ask, “Did you call me because something happened to Ningning?”

“Where did you find Ningning?”

Instead of answering Zhan Xi’s question, An Nuo threw a question back at him.

Upon hearing An Nuo’s question, Zhan Xi furrowed his brows. He was certain that this unfamiliar An Nuo on the screen couldn’t possibly know that he had picked up Ningning.

Their gazes met, and the air seemed to freeze.

After a moment of silence, Zhan Xi chose to feign ignorance. “I don’t understand what you’re saying. Ningning is my child, Mr. An Nuo. Don’t you think you’re being a bit offensive—”

“I am his uncle.”

An Nuo interrupted Zhan Xi’s nonsense and added in a calm tone, “I am his biological uncle.”

Zhan Xi: “...”

Zhan Xi’s expression instantly changed.

He clenched his fist, his gaze growing cold. “Mr. An Nuo, words must not be spoken recklessly. You claim to be Ningning’s uncle. Do you have any evidence?”

“I do.”

An Nuo’s tone remained calm. “Only members of our royal family possess the power of healing-type mental power.”

As An Nuo uttered these words, the tightly clenched fist in Zhan Xi’s hand suddenly felt weak.

He looked at the image of An Nuo on the screen, who seemed too beautiful to be an ordinary person. Thinking about the words “healing-type mental power” spoken by An Nuo, he knew deep down that An Nuo’s words were essentially true.

Only those from the royal family could possess healing-type mental power. It was an exclusive trait of the royal family, impossible for others to impersonate.

However, Zhan Xi still found it difficult to accept.

If An Nuo was Ningning’s biological uncle, would Ningning’s biological parents also come back?

When his Ningning met his biological parents, would he still want Zhan Xi as his father?

Zhan Xi’s parents had passed away early, and he had never had any relatives. He had no biological family, only people he considered as loved ones. He had raised Ningning all this time as his own child, and Ningning was the greatest joy in his life.

He couldn’t accept Ningning being taken away by someone else, even if that person was Ningning’s true relative.

An Nuo could see the expression on Zhan Xi’s face.

“Zhan Xi, there’s no need to be too nervous. I won’t compete with you for custody of Ningning.”

An Nuo’s beautiful eyes seemed to be able to see into people’s hearts. As soon as he spoke, he addressed the concern that weighed heavily on Zhan Xi’s mind.

“My health is poor, and I can’t take care of Ningning. I won’t fight for custody, but I hope you won’t prevent me from occasionally meeting Ningning.”

Upon hearing that An Nuo wouldn’t fight for custody, Zhan Xi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

His emotions fluctuated greatly, but now that he had relaxed, a smile appeared on his face. “Alright, alright. As long as you really are Ningning’s uncle, I won’t stop you from getting to know Ningning.”

“By the way, didn’t you ask me how I found Ningning earlier? Let me tell you.”

Zhan Xi truthfully recounted how he found Ningning: “As for how Ningning ended up on that spaceship, Ludwig is still investigating.”

The two adults discussed the main topic for a while, and soon, the conversation shifted to the life of the little child in the past few years.

Zhan Xi knew that as the uncle, he must be very eager to know about his nephew’s growth experiences. Generously, he shared with An Nuo the photos and videos of the little child from these past few years.

“When he was teething, his mouth couldn’t stay still. He loved biting things, especially pacifiers. He ended up biting them to the point of damage. He knew he would be scolded, so he secretly threw away the pacifier.”

Zhan Xi didn’t just send photos to An Nuo; he also shared the little stories behind the pictures.

An Nuo listened attentively.

Time flew by, and without realizing it, their video call had lasted for over an hour.

During the call, Ling Qi also approached and greeted An Nuo.

Ling Qi straightforwardly complimented An Nuo’s beauty. He had overheard their conversation just now, so he was well aware that the person on the screen was Ningning’s uncle.

Ling Qi had a peculiar focus, and he asked, “I heard about a saying before, ‘Xiao Nai Xiao Jiu’ (nephew resembles the uncle). An Nuo, do you resemble Ningning when you were a child?”

An Nuo: “...”

How should he put it?

Ningning was different from all the royal children in the royal family.

At least, in An Nuo’s experience, he had never seen a chubby little child in the royal family who could finish four bowls of rice in one go.

Ningning’s physique as a child was also on the lean side, making it impossible to compare with him.

“Cough, Zhan Xi has taken excellent care of Ningning. I was a bit weaker when I was a child, not as, not as...”

“Not as chubby as him.”

Zhan Xi finished the sentence for him. “I have seen the information about the royal children, and they seem quite thin, almost like malnutrition. Was the way the royal family raised children not quite right?”

“Since birth, our royal children received the best care. Every bite of food they consumed underwent strict inspection, and their nutrition was plentiful.”

An Nuo, the survivor of the royal family, came forward to talk about how the royal family carefully nurtured and raised their young children.

However, the more he spoke, the more Zhan Xi shook his head.

“You’re not raising them properly. No wonder the mortality rate of the children was so high.”

Zhan Xi wasn’t saying this to provoke An Nuo; he was speaking the truth. “You’re raising the children like delicate flowers. As a result, they couldn’t withstand even the slightest adversity.”

“The royal family has the protection of all its subjects. They don’t need to personally endure hardships.”

An Nuo slightly frowned, clearly displeased with Zhan Xi’s criticism.

But Zhan Xi’s temperament wouldn’t let him coddle a child. When he raised Ningning, if he misbehaved, he would lift him up and spank his buttocks.

So, in the face of the beauty’s discontent, Zhan Xi didn’t show any pity or concern. He continued, “Didn’t you bother to read some books from ancient Earth? On ancient Earth, there was a large population and many children. They had a set of methods to raise them. If you had learned earlier, the survival rate of the royal children would have doubled.”

“Also, I see that your health isn’t good, probably because you weren’t raised properly.”

After giving it some thought, Zhan Xi made a decision. “If you don’t mind, when Ningning comes back in a few days, you can come back with him and stay with us for a while.”

“Look, this is Ling Qi. He cooks delicious food, and if you come, you can eat his meals. Then you can stay here and work with us for a few days. There’s no way your health wouldn’t improve.”

While listening to Zhan Xi’s constant chatter, An Nuo watched as he flexed his biceps and even tried to take off Ling Qi’s clothes, urging Ling Qi to show him his muscles. The result was a brutal beating from Ling Qi.

An Nuo watched silently.

Just as he thought, his sister wasn’t talkative, and her man was even more reserved. The entire royal family wasn’t known for being chatty. So why was this little child, Ningning, not only talkative but also overly familiar with people?

It seemed the reason lay there.

“Let’s talk about it in a few days.”

An Nuo neither directly refused nor directly agreed.

After their conversation, An Nuo’s spirits were somewhat exhausted.

“Zhan Xi, let’s talk about it another time.”

“Okay.”

They ended the video call, and Zhan Xi conveniently saved An Nuo’s number.

After saving the number, Zhan Xi suddenly turned to Ling Qi and asked, “Wait a minute, Ling Qi, were you staring at An Nuo the whole time?”

Ling Qi gave him a cold look, not bothering to respond.

Zhan Xi continued to pester him about the topic, “Not only were you staring at him, but you also complimented his appearance!”

It was rare for Zhan Xi to hear a compliment from Ling Qi. As he recalled An Nuo’s face and observed Ling Qi’s reaction, he felt that something was fishy.

Ling Qi, on the other hand, thought Zhan Xi was acting like a fool.

While the two were engrossed in their discussion, on the other side, An Nuo, who had finished chatting with Zhan Xi, belatedly remembered something.

He seemed to have forgotten to tell Zhan Xi that Ningning had treated Raphael’s mental riot.

Among relatives, blood relatives who were elders could directly check the mental power of younger relatives, and this type of examination was more accurate than any device.

An Nuo had already examined Ningning.

Aside from being overly fatigued, the little child had no other issues.

“Forget it.”

An Nuo murmured, “There’s probably no problem, anyway. Let’s just forget about it.”

As he spoke, An Nuo set aside the Star Device.

His focus was still on the little child, and compared to the little child lying in bed, Raphael, who was also lying there, felt slightly neglected.
