The King’s Enchanting Chapter 1731 - 1745: Reluctantly Awaited (8)
Previously on The King’s Enchanting...
Nevertheless, before he could escape far, a tall figure unexpectedly materialized!
Instantly, the little one's expression soured.
Indeed, it was Leng Yunting and Luo Qingxue, who had just entered.
At this juncture, Xiaobao felt quite displeased with Leng Yunting, the suddenly appearing "dad". Upon spotting him, he immediately delivered a swift kick to his shin and, with eyes as dark as grapes, declared: "Naughty man!"
"Please do not take offense." In the presence of others, Luo Qingxue shed her usual reserved demeanor. She offered a durian pastry from her own plate to her son. Watching him gobble it down like a tiny hamster, his cheeks puffed out, with cream smeared across his somewhat pale lips, Luo Qingxue gently provided a tissue for him to wipe away the pastry remnants.
"This child… he has a bit of autism."
The final three words were whispered, startling Jian Anning! It was understandable; seeing him engrossed in his toys, one would never guess the child had autism!
When a child faces difficulties, their parents bear the heaviest burden of worry. However, through some benevolent twist of fate, Xiaobao genuinely disliked Leng Yunting, who constantly sought to engage him. Their playful scuffles, initiated by Xiaobao, paradoxically served to significantly ease his symptoms.
For illustration, Xiaobao’s current favorite delicacy is durian pastry. Yet, Leng Yunting harbors a distinct aversion to its taste, and previously, to the very scent of durian. At this moment, in a bid to connect with Xiaobao, the man who despised durian the most was actively vying with his son for a piece of the pastry, completely sacrificing his dignity. With his food unceremoniously snatched by his carefree father, Xiaobao’s anger flared, and the father-son pair erupted into a comical chase and tumble.
While raising a child is a joy, their ailments can present considerable challenges. Shortly thereafter, Feng Linxue summoned Jian Anning. After a mere minute of pulse-taking, she consulted the chart, nodded, and announced: "There's a minor complication, but nothing serious. Additionally, there's a slight Gong Han imbalance; a few doses of medication should suffice for adjustment. I also have some recommended exercises here that can fortify the body; you might consider incorporating them."
Hearing this, Jian Anning’s spirits lifted considerably. She was aware that certain yoga practices could alleviate health issues, but she was uncertain about the efficacy of external classes. Having Feng Linxue provide direct guidance was far more reassuring.

Upon departing the Leng residence, she inquired about Xiaobao’s condition: "Excuse me, why does the Leng family’s Xiaobao have such fair hair?"
Speaking of Luo Qingxue, she was an acquaintance of Yu Zexiao. He contemplated for a moment before responding: "It is said that during her pregnancy, she underwent some medication, which regrettably had an adverse effect on the child."
He directed a cautionary glance at Jian Anning as he added, "Have you considered taking any supplements recently? It’s best not to; medicine carries inherent risks. If you were to conceive a child like Xiaobao, it would truly be a catastrophe."
Jian Anning playfully stuck out her tongue at his admonition. She had no intention of randomly consuming medication. However, in her fervent desire to conceive, her typically composed self was now diligently scouring the internet for "childbirth remedies." Merely looking them up was for her own peace of mind, not an active intent to use them.
Nevertheless, when the topic turned to Xiaobao’s condition, a pang of concern did surface. Such an adorable child, afflicted with both albinism and autism—how could his parents possibly remain composed?
