By the roadside, Ji Wenhan saw a row of chairs.
"Have a seat."
He unconsciously rubbed his palm and let go of the girl's hand. Instead, he felt that his hand was a little empty.
Ji Wenhan sat down beside the row of chairs. Seeing that he had come back to his senses, Xia Ling followed him.
"Have a seat, Xiaxia." Ji Wenhan patted his side.
The girl went over to do it. She lowered her head and stared at the tip of her shoe.
Looking at the girl, Ji Wenhan wanted to comfort her.
But he was really not a person who was good at comforting people.
He raised his hand and wanted to rub the girl's head, but he suddenly felt that this action was too intimate.
Ji Wenhan froze for a moment and gently patted the girl's shoulder.
"Xiaxia, if you really can't, you can call me uncle from now on."
If she called him uncle, then in the future, when he was close to her or had some intimacy with her, his thoughts would not go astray.
Moreover, the girl wanted to experience the warmth of an elder. As an uncle, he could give her anything, and he did not have to worry about other people's gossip.
One had to know that the difference between them was a full twelve years. Ji Wenhan was just barely qualified to be the girl's uncle, right?

Hai Hai, who was watching the show, said, "Pfft!"
It quickly covered its mouth.
On the other side, Xia Ling's expression was also a little stiff.
"Wenhan, but I only want to call you that. It seems to be more intimate!"
She raised her eyes and answered stubbornly.
Ji Wenhan pursed his thin lips and looked at Xia Ling. His gaze paused for a moment before he suddenly woke up.
It was just a hand-holding, and he actually wanted a girl who was not used to calling him uncle to do just that?
"Forget it, just take it that I said something wrong."
Ji Wenhan's thin lips faintly curled up as he smiled and shook his head.
In the darkness of the night, Ji Wenhan's brows and eyes had become much gentler. That sense of abstinence had also dissipated in the darkness of the night.
Ji Wenhan was twenty-nine years old this year. He was of an age that gave him an imposing bearing.
However, his mind was clear and he was very rational. In addition to his cold and abstinent appearance, a man like this would cause people to feel a sense of conquest when they saw him.
They wanted to see him only look at themselves and reveal gentleness for themselves.
"Wenhan, you look really good when you smile."
Xia Ling looked at Ji Wenhan with a bright smile and said this softly.
Xia Ling's words successfully called back Ji Wenhan's attention.
Her praise made his face burn slightly.
The corners of Ji Wenhan's lips tightened, and he regained his dignity as an elder.
"Ji Xiaxia! I called you out because I have something to tell you."
"Mm..." The girl was still smiling. She was not as afraid of him as before.
Looking at her bright smile, Ji Wenhan's heart softened.
Compared to now, Ji Wenhan felt his heart ache when he thought of how careful the girl was in front of him.
After calming himself down, Ji Wenhan continued
"Xiaxia, Wenhan is your guardian and the person closest to you so far. You can tell Wenhan anything you want. Even if I have a bad temper sometimes, you don't have to be afraid of me. Do you understand?"
Xia Ling nodded obediently.
Ji Wenhan continued
"You're a big girl now. You can't simply hold hands with others. You have to be careful with your relationship with men and women. When you graduate and inherit the family business, there will be plenty of young talents for you to choose from. So for now, don't think about those young boys in your school. You have to keep a clean slate!"
"Okay." Xia Ling nodded in agreement.
Seeing that she was very obedient, Ji Wenhan thought for a moment and added:
"If you have someone you like, you can also tell me. I'll help you take a look. Your parents left you a company here and then went out to play. I'll also supervise it for you. If the person you like is really good, you don't have to deliberately hide it!"
