Chapter 1047: Chapter 1033
"But when people ask us, we say Xiao En’s parents have passed away, how can they say Xiao En is a wild child abandoned by his parents?"
"How can children understand what adults say? They probably see Xiao En without parents picking him up and start saying those things, maybe they don’t know those words would hurt Xiao En."
"Are you sure they don’t know?"
"..."
Old Lady Li couldn’t be certain. Nowadays, kids are all sharp-minded, and if their parents have low quality, it’s inevitable for the kids to turn bad.
"Alright, let’s not talk about it. Hopefully, once Xiao Kang arrives, Xiao En can go back to how he was before."
Sighing deeply, Elder Loh felt a bit powerless.
Old Lady Li: "If possible, let Xiao Kang take Xiao En to live in North City for a while."
"Is that okay?"
Just after closing his eyes, Elder Loh opened them again and turned over, lying on his side to look at his wife: "Xiao Kang and Little Luo have three kids to take care of. One of them needs to attend classes, and the other is a professor, just like you, they have to teach students. Do they have time to take care of Xiao En?"
"Shuimu University has an affiliated kindergarten, Xiao Kang only needs to send Xiao En there, picking him up morning and evening, it shouldn’t have a big impact on their life."
Although Old Lady Li felt it would be a bit thick-skinned of her if she really did this, she couldn’t help but consider her great-grandson’s psychological development.
If the child continues not speaking or refusing to go to kindergarten, it’s hard to guarantee he won’t develop what medicine refers to as autism.
"You’re worried about Xiao En’s psychological condition."
Elder Loh wasn’t asking, he was stating it.
"Yes." Old Lady Li said: "In medicine, there’s a psychological disorder called ’autism’. Looking at Xiao En’s current condition, if he continues not speaking, unwilling to go to kindergarten, reluctant to talk to people, he might eventually get used to living in his own world, in other words, he would be avoiding everything outside."
"..." Elder Loh was momentarily stunned, then he came to his senses and asked: "Could it be this serious?"
Old Lady Li: "I said if Xiao En continues like this, it’s highly likely he’ll develop autism. Moreover, he might already be wondering whether he’s really strange, which is why his parents didn’t keep him by their side."
Elder Loh: "It’s our fault for not correcting Xiao En’s way of addressing Xiao Kang and Little Luo from the start."
"Last year when we received Xiao En, he was just over two years old, what could he know? We said Xiao Kang and Little Luo were his godfather and godmother, and in Xiao En’s mind, that means parents, after all... he hasn’t met his own biological parents!"
Saying this, Old Lady Li’s eyes felt a bit sore: "Don’t let me find out who did that to our Xiao Xue, otherwise, I’ll make them pay!"
The latter half of her sentence was almost spoken through clenched teeth by Old Lady Li.
"You don’t need to do anything, I’ll definitely stand up for our Xiao Xue!"
Elder Loh was equally repulsed by the man who ruined Loh Xue.
She was such a good granddaughter, just because she was bullied by an unknown man, she endured through her pregnancy until she lost her own life...
"I guess that person must be someone Xiao Xue knew, and... and she liked him very much, otherwise, she wouldn’t have been so foolish to hide everything from us, wanting to give birth to Xiao En."
This was what Old Lady Li had speculated back when Loh Xue refused to remove the child in her womb, but alas, her granddaughter’s mouth was like a clam shell, impossible to pry open.
