Cao Jia'an just didn't want to be called uncle by a shifty-looking guy.
The world is so wonderful, and human beings are even more wonderful.
Cao Jia'an is a thief, but he doesn't like people with shifty eyes at all.
None of his former friends and brothers had shifty eyes. Even some of them specialized in stealing and shady things did not look timid at all from their facial expressions.
Ma Xiaohe has an unpleasant face. It has nothing to do with whether he is good-looking or not. He is just the kind that makes people annoyed at first sight.
Cao Jia'an is a person who values appearance. Since Cao Jia'an was a lively child, his fellow villagers all praised him, saying that this child will do great things when he grows up, and he has an extraordinary face.

"Whose shoulder are you patting?" Cao Jia'an glared.
"Uncle Cao..?" Ma Xiaohe was confused and didn't know what was going on.
Cao Jia'an laughed immediately and said, "I'm just kidding. You don't have to argue. I say let's just talk about our own affairs. If you keep calling me uncle, I'll get mad at you. Just call me Lao Cao. In this business, most people who know me, whether they're close or not, call me Lao Cao."
