Chapter 27: Relatives
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
City A, the political and financial center city in China. It was also the city where Warm’s home was located.
Warm’s parents lived in a mid-range community in the western district of the city. Originally, the old couple lived in the tube building in the downtown urban area. A few years ago, Warm made a lot of money when she became popular in the film and television circles. Then, she bought a house for her parents and moved out of the downtown urban area.
​Â
On the day that Warm came back with Jiao Jiao, Warm’s mother had passed away for a whole week.
According to the custom of her hometown, people must be buried within three days, so Warm did not even catch up with her mother’s funeral.
Warm arrived at her father’s house at six o’clock in the afternoon.
It was the seventh day after her mother’s death, so many relatives in the family had come over today, and this point had not left.
Warm entered the door with Jiao Jiao and found that the food was just being served.
According to the rules, relatives who come to worship will have a meal at the home.
Warm opened the door and found her seventh aunt, eighth aunt, uncles, and children were all in. In addition, Warm’s father looked a lot older. He looked depressed while the other people looked happy.
There were dishes on the table, and some people were watching TV. There were also some people squatting on the side, playing games on their mobile phones.
Warm walked through the door, causing a lot of sensation.
“The big star is back? How’s work going?”
“Warm, you said you are too busy with this work, your mother left for a week before you came back. As an uncle, I really have to say a few words about you! What a shame!”
“Dad, she’s busy with work. She’s been on the island before this. Now, she’s just finished and she’s back. Don’t be scolding her!”
“Yes, Warm and her mother have a good relationship. She is most miserable when this happens. Don’t criticize her anymore!”
There was a lot of talking, and Warm really could not afford to cause a commotion. She simply said hello to everyone and went to talk with his father.
Jiao Jiao was left among a group of relatives.
A little girl, eight or nine years old, came over and patted her back. “The fool is back? Grandma died, you know? It’s good that you don’t know anything. You won’t be sad!”
Ruan Jiao Jiao turned around and saw a girl with a ponytail, with a lollipop in her mouth, looking at herself obliquely.
Seeing that Jiao Jiao was looking back at her, the girl also took the lollipop out of her mouth and waved it in front of Jiao Jiao’s face. “Want to eat it? Go to your mother!”
A few adults saw this but did not say anything, some people still puckered their mouths, shaking their heads while laughing.
They were all coquettish or stupid.
Ruan Jiao Jiao gave the little girl a glance, and knew that this was her cousin Xu Shan. Xu Shan’s mother was Jiao Jiao’s mother’s sister.
At this time, aunt pulled Xu Shan aside. “Did you practice the piano today? You should play a song later to make your grandfather happy.”
Xu Shan puckered at her mother’s gaze. It was clear in her heart that her mother wanted her to play in front of these relatives to put on a show, so as to earn some face for her.
Sure enough, an aunt immediately agreed. “Yes, Shan Shan’s piano practice has been more than a year? If I say that your family’s artistic cell is really powerful, I think Shan Shan will also become a big star in the future!”
Someone asked with an inaudible voice. “If you asked me, Warm should bring Shan Shan to participate in the program, what does Jiao Jiao know? If we take Shan Shan, with our Shan Shan’s intelligence, we’ll definitely get a lot of fans, and we’ll not be scolded so badly?”
Aunt heard these words and feel good. She was Warm’s sister, but Warm had always been more beautiful, smarter, had better luck than her. Warm even became a big star while she was young.
However, she herself divorced early and had a low income. Up to now, she did not even have a house of her own. She had been living in her parents’ home. Even her parents’ house was bought by Warm.
It all made her feel jealous and unbalanced.
But who would have thought that things would turn around?
Warm unmarried pregnant, unexpectedly had a child, she did not even know who was the child’s father.
And the kid’s a fool!
