It's unclear where these reporters learned about Liu Jin's return date, but they organized a team to stake out the airport, film and television company, and the vicinity of the eight-courtyard house.
When Ye Chenming drove off with Yan Xiaonan and Dongnan, the reporters immediately got to work, snapping photos of Ye Chenming's car with their cameras and microphones.
Southeast was somewhat worried, but Yan Xiaonan was very happy. She needed this kind of hype to promote Liu Jin in a grand way, which would greatly benefit the development of Liu Jin's character.
The car smoothly entered the airport, and Yan Xiaonan and the others walked into the waiting hall. To her surprise, she found Dean Tan and a group of students holding up a flag to welcome Yan Chi back to China, waiting quietly to the side.
Upon seeing Yan Xiaonan, Dean Tan rushed over and pointed to the fifty or sixty students behind him, saying, "Nannan, what do you think of this scene?"
Yan Xiaonan gave two thumbs up, admiring Dean Tan's shrewdness. Liu Jin was his last disciple, and as a master, the more successful the student, the happier the master was.
"Here he comes! Liu Jin is out!" Ye Chenming suddenly shouted. In an instant, flags fluttered in the waiting hall, and cheers resounded throughout the entire area: "Yan Chi! Yan Chi! Yan Chi! Yan Chi!"
The orderly and rhythmic shouts attracted everyone in the waiting hall. They didn't know what was going on, so they quickly came over to see what was happening.
The reporters were in a hurry. They hadn't expected the scene of welcoming the guests to be so grand. They quickly raised their cameras and started snapping pictures from every angle.
Then they pushed their way forward, trying to get the best spots to take some valuable photos.
Finally, Yan Chi appeared in everyone's sight. His hair was neatly parted in a 3/7 ratio, and he wore a plaid suit. He pushed two large suitcases and walked step by step toward Yan Xiaonan.
The cheers grew louder. Many students had seen Liu Jin's photo in front of the school's photo frame. They all knew that Liu Jin was Dean Tan's last disciple, and they also knew that Liu Jin's performances were always very successful.
Looking at the certificates and photos in the frame, they already have great respect for Liu Jin. Knowing that he can study at the best school in the world, they not only feel deep envy, but also hope to see him in person.
Sure enough, the person slowly approached. A dignified man walked over, saw Yan Xiaonan and the others waiting in the first row, put down his luggage, and hugged Yan Xiaonan tightly.
"Auntie, I'm back."
Yan Xiaonan's eyes were a little moist. Liu Jin, whom she had cherished since childhood, had shed his boyish innocence and, like a sapling, was growing strong and healthy under the nourishment of sunlight and water, slowly becoming a towering tree.
"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
Yan Xiaonan suppressed her excitement, pulled open Liu Jin's clothes, and carefully examined him. Very good, very good, no injuries, no missing limbs.
"Dad, you're here too. Where's Mom? Where's Fubao? And Uncle? Thank you for all the help you've given me over the years, and thank you for letting me have another little brother." Liu Jin hugged Dongnan and Ye Chenming again.
Finally, he walked up to Dean Tan and bowed deeply to him: "Teacher, I'm back. I didn't let you down. I received the highest honor from that school."
After saying that, Ye Chenming opened the outermost layer of his suitcase and took out his graduation certificate and a large stack of awards and trophies.
Dean Tan, with tears streaming down his face, accepted the trophy and certificate with trembling hands and held them high. Reporters quickly took pictures of the two of them.
Liu Jin wanted to bring Yan Xiaonan along for a photo, but Ye Chenming stopped him. Nan Nan was already famous enough; he couldn't have Nan Nan's shadow everywhere, as that would be detrimental to Liu Jin's future development.
Southeast and Liu Jin each pushed a suitcase, leading Dean Tan in front, with Nan Nan and Ye Chenming following behind. A large number of students followed behind, waving flags and shouting, and gradually left the waiting hall.
The reporters saw Liu Jin get into the car and rushed to their newspaper offices, eager to be the first to publish such big news.
Grandma Yan, Cuihua, and Yan Xiaoqiang, dressed in new clothes, stood at the entrance of the courtyard house with Xuemei and Fubao, who were full of excitement, eagerly anticipating their arrival.
Fu Bao was worried that her great-grandmother's health couldn't handle it, so she brought a stool for her to sit down. Apart from Yan Ran, Yu Shu and Tian Ru, Yan Feng didn't have a very deep memory of Liu Jin, especially one-year-old En Ming, who had no idea that Liu Jin existed in the family.
When the car arrived at the eight-courtyard house, before the doors were even opened, Xuemei rushed up and pulled open the back door. Liujin's beautiful eyes stared straight at Xuemei.
"Mom, I'm home."
Liu Jin got out of the car and hugged Xue Mei tightly. He heard his mother's low sobs and felt her hot tears falling on his shoulder.
After a long, long time, Liu Jin finally let go of Xue Mei, whose emotions had gradually calmed down, and walked quickly towards Grandma Yan. With a "plop," Liu Jin knelt straight down in front of Grandma Yan.
"Great-grandmother, your great-grandson is unfilial. I've been away for five years and haven't been able to fulfill my filial duties to you." Liu Jin's tears also flowed. He saw himself as a child, nestled in his aunt's arms, with Grandma Yan feeding him spoonful by spoonful.
"Silly child, it's good that you're back. Your great-grandmother has been waiting for you. Get up quickly, don't hurt your leg, be good." Grandma Yan stretched out her hands, wanting to help Liu Jin up, but the over ninety-year-old woman was too weak to do so.
Liu Jin quickly stood up and helped Grandma Yan walk towards the courtyard. Seeing Ye Ren and Fu Qingping in the hall, he greeted them warmly, "Grandpa, Grandma, hello!"
Ye Ren nodded in satisfaction. Although he was abroad, he was very knowledgeable about things in China, even knowing about the changes in how he and Fu Qingping addressed each other.
"Brother Liujin"
Liu Jin heard the call, turned around, and his eyes widened in surprise: "Yan Ran, it's you! You're so beautiful."
Yan Ran blushed. Liu Jin had never liked her. In fact, it wasn't just Liu Jin who disliked her; the children from both the Yan and Ye families disliked her as well.
Since she changed, the first person to extend an olive branch to her was Yu Shu, then Tian Ru, and gradually, Fu Bao also became willing to share her feelings with her.
Yan Ran felt uneasy when she saw Liu Jin come back today. She knew how important Liu Jin was to her family. If Liu Jin didn't like her, then all the changes she had made over the years would have been in vain.
Unexpectedly, Liu Jin seemed to have completely forgotten everything from his childhood and instead genuinely praised him. Yan Ran couldn't help but grin from ear to ear, he was just too happy.
