Description
Mi Zhao unexpectedly caught his boyfriend, Li Yan, cheating. While out for a walk to clear his mind, he met a man who shared his pain. The man had a disability, sitting in a wheelchair, and was a kept man until he was recently abandoned. Mi Zhao looked at the man—his features were sharp, with deep-set eyes, a perfectly handsome appearance, but his aura was somewhat gloomy. One day, after drinking, he asked the man, “Would you want to change your way of life?” The man’s face flushed red, and he stammered, “What kind of way?” From that day on, in order to give the man a better life, Mi Zhao worked even harder at part-time jobs, until one day, during a date, he was intercepted by Li Yan. Li Yan angrily said, “I knew it! You must have another man, that’s why you’re eager to dump me. I heard you’re supporting him? I’ll see what kind of man he is!” Li Yan rushed into the private room, took one look, and immediately stumbled. “U-uncle?!” • The Li family was a prestigious name in A City, known for its many branches and sons and daughters. However, few knew that the most influential person in the Li family was the rarely seen Third Master. When Third Master coughed, the entire Li family would tremble. But somehow, people began to notice a change in the usually indifferent and uninterested Third Master. He started using his phone frequently and went out often. Could it be that Third Master was in love? The news reached the ears of the old madam of the Li family, who quickly arranged for an assistant to investigate. Third Master didn’t hide anything and openly said he had a boyfriend who was still a student. His boyfriend was very affectionate, often giving him gifts, which left him troubled. He was afraid that rejecting his boyfriend might hurt his feelings, while also worrying about his boyfriend’s financial situation. The assistant, sweating, suggested, “If he likes buying things so much, why don’t you give him a black card?” That day, Mi Zhao held the black card in silence for a long time, then asked, “Are you going to end our relationship?” Third Master: “?” He belatedly realized that his boyfriend seemed to have misunderstood something.

My Thoughts on Uncle Xiao LI
Okay, let's talk about "Uncle Xiao LI." I dove into this novel with some pretty high hopes, and overall, I'd say it delivered a fairly enjoyable experience. It's a completed story, so binging is definitely an option, which is always a plus in my book.
First Impressions
The initial premise is pretty unique. The main character (MC) mistakenly believes the male lead (ML) is seeking a sugar daddy, and, in a moment of (hilarious) altruism, decides to become that sponsor. I found this misunderstanding to be genuinely funny, and it really allowed the MC to showcase a more forward and proactive side to his personality that I really enjoyed. It was fun seeing the uke taking the reins for a change.
What Works Well
The comedic undertones are definitely a strong point. The story doesn't take itself too seriously, which makes it a relaxing and enjoyable read. I especially liked the dynamic between the MC and ML, especially as their relationship evolved. Post-misunderstanding, the ML really steps up, becoming more possessive and determined to keep the MC by his side, which adds another layer of intrigue to their relationship. I also appreciated the light drama and low stakes. Sometimes you just want a story that's easy to get lost in, and "Uncle Xiao LI" definitely fits the bill. It is a fun, fluffy story.
Areas of Concern
While I enjoyed the story overall, I did have a few minor issues. The pacing felt a bit rushed at times, especially towards the end. Certain plot points could have been explored more thoroughly to give the story a bit more depth. I also felt like the handling of the ML's mother was a bit inconsistent. It felt like her character underwent a significant shift, which felt a little jarring.

Final Verdict
Despite a few minor drawbacks, "Uncle Xiao LI" is a cute and entertaining read. If you're looking for a lighthearted yaoi story with a healthy dose of humor, a possessive ML, and a slightly clueless MC, then this might be right up your alley. Just be prepared for a few plot points that could have used a bit more fleshing out. Overall, I'd recommend giving it a try.
