"You're right; we cannot take risks now." Lin Yiyi also expressed agreement.

"Then fine, let us continue waiting." Chen Mama said helplessly.

Thus, they continued waiting in the city for an opportunity.

During this period, they also encountered a stranger. This stranger appeared to be about their age, wore a tracksuit, and held a travel guide in his hand.

"Are you also from out of town?" that person stepped forward and asked.

"Yes, we are from another place." Chen Kaijun replied.

"Are you also here for fun?" that person continued asking.

"No, we are waiting here for an opportunity to return home." Lin Yiyi replied.

"I see; I heard recently an airline is recruiting flight attendants and male cabin crew; you could try." that person suggested.

"Really? That is actually a good idea!" Chen Guofu said with surprise and delight.

"But we have no experience." Lin Hai Feng said with some worry.

"That does not matter; I can teach you some techniques and precautions to help you pass the interview more easily." that person said with full confidence.

"That is wonderful; thank you!" Lin Yiyi said gratefully.

Thus, they began following that person to learn how to interview for flight attendant and male cabin crew positions.

They learned how to dress appropriately, how to apply makeup and style themselves, how to prepare a personal resume, how to display confidence during the interview, and so on.

After a period of study and preparation, they all felt their confidence greatly increased and were ready to attend the interviews.

The interviews proceeded very smoothly; they performed exceptionally well and were ultimately successfully hired by the airline.

They were all very happy, feeling this was the result of their efforts over this period.

"This is truly wonderful; we can finally go home!" Chen Lihua said happily.

"Yes, I did not expect we would return home in this manner." Lin Yiyi said with emotion.

"This is all thanks to the help of that kind person." Chen Kaijun said gratefully.

"Alright, alright, no need for thanks." that person said with a smile, "I also must thank you, because I still have matters to handle upon returning home; now we can return together."

After hearing this news, everyone cheered and jumped for joy.

They could finally return home! They could finally reunite with their families!

They boarded a plane and returned to their hometown, to that familiar city.

When they stepped off the plane, they saw family and friends already waiting at the airport.

They happily embraced one another, cheered, applauded, and wept.

In this moment, they finally understood what it meant to feel the sensation of returning home.

They vowed never to separate again and to always remain united. At the airport, family and friends surrounded Chen Guofu's family; while talking animatedly, they walked toward the exit.

"Lihua, Haifeng, you have finally returned! We were worried sick!" Chen Mama's face overflowed with joyful tears as she tightly embraced her children.

"Mom, we are fine; we made you worry." Lin Hai Feng and Chen Lihua also cried while comforting her.

"Good children, you did very well; you are worthy of being my children." Chen Mama wiped away her tears, turned her head, and looked at Chen Guofu and Chen Kaijun, "Guofu, Kaijun, you also worked hard; rest well now that you have returned."

"Yes, Mom." Chen Guofu and Chen Kaijun both nodded with smiles.

After they exited the airport, they saw among the many welcoming crowds quite a few were their relatives and friends.

"Guofu, you have finally returned!" a middle-aged man walked toward them, "I am your uncle; I heard about your ordeal earlier and always wanted to come visit you, but unfortunately had no chance; now you have finally returned."

"Thank you, Uncle; your help and support for us all this time, we are endlessly grateful." Chen Guofu said gratefully.

"Kaijun, Lin Yiyi, you also worked hard; rest well now that you have returned." the middle-aged man looked at Chen Kaijun and Lin Yiyi and said.

"Yes, Uncle." Chen Kaijun and Lin Yiyi both replied with smiles.

Next, Chen Guofu's family, surrounded by relatives and friends, returned to the place they had always known—their hometown.

After resting at home for several days, they began handling some matters left over from before.

During this period, they also met many former friends and neighbors.

"Guofu, you have finally returned!" a middle-aged woman walked toward them, "We heard about your earlier situation; it was truly outrageous! But now it is fine; you can finally return."

"Yes, thank you for your concern and support." Chen Guofu said gratefully.

"Kaijun and Lin Yiyi are truly remarkable!" the middle-aged woman looked at Chen Kaijun and Lin Yiyi and continued, "They were able to protect their own and their family's safety under such dangerous circumstances; that is truly extraordinary!"

"Yes, we are also very grateful to them." Chen Mama said with emotion, "They experienced so many difficulties and dangers, yet ultimately successfully returned to their hometown."

In the following days, Chen Guofu's family settled back down at home.

Every day they gathered with relatives and friends, sharing each other's lives and experiences.

At the same time, they also began slowly adjusting their lives and work.

"Haifeng and Lihua, have you considered returning to school to continue studying?" a relative asked.

"Yes, we plan to register for school in a while." Lin Hai Feng and Chen Lihua both replied, "We still have many shortcomings that need learning and improvement."

"This is wonderful!" the relative said happily, "You are both smart and excellent children; you will surely have a better future."

With the support and help of relatives and friends, Chen Guofu's family slowly emerged from the previous unhappiness and shadows.

They also gradually understood: as long as there is family support and love, all difficulties are not to be feared! Days passed; Chen Guofu's family gradually resumed normal life. However, just within this peaceful life, a new storm was brewing.

After long-term companionship, Chen Kaijun and Lin Yiyi's feelings gradually warmed. However, their relationship triggered Chen Guofu and Lin Hai Feng's worry. They felt Chen Kaijun and Lin Yiyi were still too young, and their relationship might also bring threats to their safety.

"Kaijun, your uncle and I do not want you to be with Lin Yiyi." Chen Guofu frowned and looked at Chen Kaijun, saying, "You are both still too young, and your identities are special; continuing like this will very likely bring threats to your safety."

"But we already love each other very much." Chen Kaijun said somewhat helplessly, "Is being together not happy?"

"It is not a matter of happiness or unhappiness, but that you are too young." Lin Hai Feng also frowned and said, "You have not yet experienced society's harsh blows; you do not know society's treachery."

"Then cannot we try to face society's treachery?" Chen Kaijun retorted, "We are not children anymore; we also have our own thoughts and judgments."

"But you are too innocent and easily hurt." Chen Guofu and Lin Hai Feng both said with some worry, "We do not want you to walk our old path."

"I think we should trust them." Lin Yiyi stepped forward to support Chen Kaijun, "We are not children anymore; we should be able to decide our own lives."

"But doing this will very likely bring a threat to your safety," Chen Guofu and Lin Hai Feng said, both somewhat angry. "We do not wish for you to take risks."

"Even if we are not together, those criminals might still find us," Chen Kaijun said, looking at his parents. "Can we not try to face the treachery of this society?"

"But we are still worried about your future," Chen Guofu and Lin Hai Feng said, both somewhat helpless. "We do not want you to take the wrong path."
