Ji Shiting could guess what was happening in the driverâs seat.
It was no wonder the two kids wanted to get out of the car.
He thought for a bit and saw that the two kids were still staring at him. His heartstrings were tugged, and he couldnât help reaching out to them, gesturing for them to talk.
The two kids seemed to understand and handed him their hands.
Ji Shiting was dazed. He hadnât expected them to trust him.
The childrenâs hands were unbelievably soft. This was the first time he had experienced holding their hands, and he didnât even dare use any strength, afraid that he would hurt them.
He held one of them with each hand and walked to the stone bench. Ji Shiting let go of their hands, took off his jacket and laid it on the bench. He then picked up the two kids and let them sit on the stone bench.
The two kids continued to observe them curiously.
Ji Shiting couldnât help smiling. âWho is Qiao Yanze to you?â
The two kids looked at each other and said, âDad.â
Those words didnât affect Ji Shiting at all. He thought the kids were answering his question.
âSo Qiao Yanze has two kids.â
If that was the case, he wouldnât be able to rope Qiao Yanze in. After all, what he was about to do was dangerous.
âArenât you afraid of me?â Ji Shiting poked the girlâs braids. âDidnât your parents tell you not to bother with strangers?â
Although he enjoyed the trust of the two kids, it might not be a good thing for them.
What if he was a crook?
The two kids looked at each other and blinked, as if they were communicating in this way.
Soon, they turned around and the girl said with a smile, âIâm not afraid, youâre a good person.â
âWhy do you say that?â He flicked her braid again.
âThenââ¬Â¦ Are you a bad person, Uncle?â Jinchenâs eyes widened.
âNo, but if Iâm a bad guy, youâll be in danger.â Ji Shiting stroked his head.
âWe wouldâve called for help if you were a crook,â Jinchen said proudly. âI can tell.â
Ji Shiting couldnât help laughing, âOkay. I believe youâre smart, but you have to be careful in the future, okay?â
The two of them thought for a bit and nodded.
Ji Shiting had tender feelings for them. He smiled and asked, âAre you twins?â
They both nodded in unison.
âHow old are you?â
âItâs our third birthday the day after tomorrow,â Jinchen said. âAre you coming to our birthday party, Uncle?â
Ji Shiting was stunned.
âUncle, I hope you can come.â Qingâer blinked. âCan you come?â
The girlâs eyes were filled with anticipation, which reminded him of Ye Shengge.
He didnât want to disappoint them, so he nodded and said, âOkay. I will visit you with gifts for you guys.â
He thought that it wouldnât be a big deal if he asked Qiao Yanze to arrange for him to leave after seeing the two kids.
The two kids smiled happily.
âUncle, can you hug me?â The girl reached out her hands again. âI want you to hug me.â
âMe too.â The boy looked at him expectantly.
Ji Shiting was shocked again.
