Chapter 1059: Unqualified(1/2)
On Friday, a car stopped at the entrance of Phoenix Building in Ninghai.
Chen Jie walked out of the car, took a breath, and then walked towards the building with big strides. She was coming to report to Xu Jing today and started working under him.
But after walking a few steps, she was suddenly stunned and found that there were many people standing in the lobby on the first floor of Phoenix Building. They were dressed up as reporters.
"How come there are so many reporters here? Do they know I will come today?" Chen Jie was shocked.
A security guard at the door first noticed Chen Jie's arrival. He picked up the phone and said a few words. Not long after, all the security guards around him walked out and then walked in with Chen Jie.
After the reporters saw Chen Jie, there was a riot at first, but just as they were about to come and interview her, some security guards stopped them.
"Everyone, your interview today is not Ms. Chen Jie. If anyone goes there again, you will not be welcome to the press conference later."
As a security guard said this, the reporters were restless for a moment, but in the end they were honestly not harassed Chen Jie.
Chen Jie walked into the elevator smoothly. She breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked curiously: "Press conference? What are these reporters here for?"
"The press conference of One Piece."
A security guard who led her in the elevator gave an answer. Chen Jie suddenly realized that it was no wonder that these reporters came for "One Piece".
The news about "One Piece" has been announced for several days, and the media has not stopped paying attention, and the discussion has also been buzzing. Chen Jie has been asked several times if she will dubbed in "One Piece".
It turned out that Chen Jie asked Meng Huo to come here today to bring her to see Xu Jing. She had never contacted Xu Jing alone. She felt a little nervous. But she was also ruined because Meng Huo was being harassed by the reporters attracted by "One Piece".
"I don't know if Mr. Xu is easy to get along with..."
Chen Jie thought to herself. Xu Jing is the president of Phoenix Company and Alice's father. In addition, she also knows the relationship between her and Meng Huo. On the way to his office, Chen Jie always has a subtle feeling, like... the tension of a man meeting his father-in-law for the first time.
This feeling is wonderful, but Chen Jie is a better metaphor.
"Miss Chen Jie, the president has been waiting for you for a long time."
The security guard took Chen Jie to the door of Xu Jing's office. The secretary at the door had already received the news in advance and knocked on the door directly, and then took Chen Jie in.
Xu Jing was working. When he saw the secretary bringing Chen Jie in, he waved his hand: "You go down first!"
"yes."
The secretary turned around and left, and closed the office door.
There were only two people left in the office at once. Chen Jie stood restrainedly, but Xu Jing put down his work and got up and walked towards the cabinet where the tea set was placed.
"Drink tea?".
He asked with a pack of tea.
Chen Jie's eyes lit up and she replied, "I know how to drink. When I was traveling, I learned to make tea with Meng Huo. He said you like to drink tea."
"Oh?" Xu Jing was a little surprised and then smiled and said, "Then what if you make a cup for me?"
"certainly."
Chen Jie nodded, and Xu Jing handed her the tea leaves and tea sets. Chen Jie made a smooth simmering tea.
She knew Xu Jing’s hobbies, in fact, Alice also knew Chen Jie’s parents’ hobbies. For the sake of possible troubles in the future, the two learned some ways to please each other’s parents.
"please……"
After soaking the tea, Chen Jie carefully handed it to Xu Jing.
Xu Jing took a few sips in surprise, then laughed in silence: "It smells like Alice, I'm afraid this tea is not taught to you by Meng Huo, but Alice?"
Chen Jie was stunned. Can he drink this?
"Are you thinking about why I can drink it?" Xu Jing saw through Chen Jie's thoughts at a glance and smiled: "Alice is my daughter. Will I not be able to drink her tea? Moreover, Meng Huo's child's tea art is not comparable to ordinary people..."
He shook his head and said, "The child's tea is full of spirituality. If you have more than one, you have less than one. It's the best time every time. I really don't know how he did it."
Chen Jie thought to herself: "How could he know that he never forgets it."
Meng Huo has no grasp of details. Whether it is painting, making tea or even exercising, as long as Meng Huo finds the best result, he can repeatedly achieve this result.
However, this also made Chen Jie discover something. In fact, Meng Huo is not in the best condition every time. He is not able to do the best, but he is like a robot. As long as he does it well, he can write it down and then reproduce it.
Maybe if you master something, others need dozens of training, but Meng Huo only needs to do it once. The same principle is to make tea. As long as Meng Huo successfully brews the best tea leaves once, he can brew it again and again later.
"Okay, don't stand, sit down, let's talk about your previous trip."
Xu Jing asked Chen Jie to sit down and then asked her about traveling. Chen Jie was a little restrained at the beginning, but she let go as she chatted.
"Sure enough, it's the same as what they both said..."
Chen Jie soon discovered that Xu Jing was deliberately eliminating his tension, but it was true that he was very interested in the trip of the three, and he kept listening with relish.
What's even more rare is that Chen Jie found that Xu Jing, like Alice's mother, did not express any dissatisfaction or anger at the relationship between the three, which made her understand why Meng Huo was relieved to let her follow Xu Jing.
This is a respectable old man, his heart is wide enough to accommodate a quiet existence.
Chen Jie couldn't help feeling guilty for Alice.
Alice's parents did not put Chen Jie in any way about the three of them, and were even willing to raise her. How many pairs are there in the world of such parents?
Chen Jie knew that her parents would never do this, and Alice would definitely be blamed or even insulted by her parents in the future, so she felt guilty and felt that the situation they faced was not fair.
After chatting for an hour, Xu Jing didn't talk about Chen Jie's work. Just when Shen Jie was wondering if he had forgotten it, it was approaching that the time for get off work. Xu Jing stood up.
"Let's talk about this today. I'll talk about it next time if I have the opportunity. You can take a break from tomorrow and come to work on Monday. Don't worry about the procedures. I'll make arrangements for you."
He suddenly said this, which shocked Chen Jie's face.
"What?" Xu Jing saw Chen Jie's surprise and asked, "Is there any other problem?"
"No……"
Chen Jie shook her hand, how could she have any problems? She was surprised that she had just passed Xu Jing's level so smoothly.
"Mr. Xu... don't you test me?" Chen Jie asked.
"What are you doing? Meng Huo and Alice both said you can do it. I believe them. They are not people who speak nonsense." Xu Jing smiled, but he didn't agree to this matter just because of Meng Huo's recommendation. He knew Chen Jie's experience and had confidence in this girl.
In addition to the flaw that she failed to get into college due to an accident, Chen Jie's experience since childhood is a legend, and she can do anything well. It can even be said to be another different gender "He Xi".
Xu Jing has no reason not to believe such a legendary girl.
After leaving Phoenix Company, Chen Jie immediately called Meng Huo to tell the good news. Of course, Meng Huo was not surprised compared to Chen Jie's joy. Xu Jing was the one who kept his promise. If he suddenly changed his mind, it might be easier to surprise him.
"Xu is always a good teacher. You can learn a lot when you are by his side." Meng Huo has also studied with Xu Jing in the past and said, "You can work in Ninghai with peace of mind, and I will come to see you when I have time."
"Why do I go back to Su Hua to see you tonight?"
Chen Jie suddenly thought that Meng Huo had no way to see her, so wouldn’t she just go to Su Hua to meet him? Anyway, she also has time this holiday.
"No need." But Meng Huo refused. Now is the time for Min to be sensitive. The influence of "One Piece" has not yet passed. A large number of reporters have come to Manga Island. Chen Jie may be discovered when she returns.
Moreover, he didn't have time to accompany Chen Jie. He had to solve the problem of "Flower Season" this holiday and then rushed to Yangzhou.
"Yangzhou? What are you going to Yangzhou for..." Chen Jie's voice was halfway through, and then she immediately remembered: "Is it because of another animation?"
"That animation is called "Genius Mahjong Girl".
Meng Huo agreed to go to Yangzhou last month, but time has been delayed again and again. Now that the news about "One Piece" has been announced, Huiyue Studio is extremely anxious, and Meng Huo also has to go and see the situation of "The Genius Mahjong Girl".
"Then I can only stay in Ninghai..." Chen Jie was a little disappointed. She actually wanted to spend the holiday alone.
"If you can't get idle, can you go back to Qingcheng to have a look?" Meng Huo gave her advice: "If you don't want to go home, then you can come to Su Hua to accompany Alice."
"Good idea... Well, I'll go home!" Chen Jie's eyes lit up. She hadn't been home for a long time and missed her parents quite a bit. Ninghai and Qingcheng are not far away from the high-speed rail. Now I'll book tickets and get home in the evening.
Alice can go anytime in the future, so it is better to go home. She thought of it and did it. After Chen Jie made the phone call, she immediately ran to the train station and took the high-speed train back to Qingcheng.
Not to mention the matter on this side, but on the other side, just after the call with Shen Jie, Li Qin didn't know where to learn that Meng Huo was about to leave Su Hua, so she called to ask if he was real.
Meng Huo first admitted it, then felt that there was a fire in Li Qin's words, and couldn't help but ask, "Mom, what's wrong?"
"What's wrong? I said, why are you so careless!" Li Qin said angrily: "How far is my place from Manhua Island? It doesn't take long to drive. People have to go back and forth several times a day when they go to work. They will remember to go home every day. How many times have you been back for so long? How many times have you been to the Meng family? How many times have you calculated?"
Meng Huo was sweating. He knew this without counting it. Once, it was the time he went out with Alice.
"Is there anyone who is like this?". It seems that Li Qin was really angry: "I don't even look at her pregnant Alice, and I'm going to Yangzhou now. Are you a father?"
Meng Huo wiped his sweat. He hadn't become a father yet: "Mom, am I afraid of running over and being discovered if someone is discovered..."
"Come on, don't make excuses!" Li Qin said impatiently: "I've been discovered yet! With your grandmother here, who discovered you? You just don't have this heart, you and your dad are just the same..."
She didn't continue to say anything, but Meng Huo already understood it. The heavy words made him feel a little uncomfortable. Meng Huo used to be the most dissatisfied with his father, but today when Li Qin said this, he felt like he was stabbed by a needle.
"I'm sorry, mom..."
He felt that his performance was too ruthless. Although he often had work at night, he didn't have time to see Alice. No matter what, Alice was just a close place. He didn't go back to take a look for it for several weeks, which was too unreasonable.
And as Li Qin said, the distance between the Meng family and Manhua Island is actually the distance between many office workers from get off work every day.
"Mom, I'll go back tomorrow."
Meng Huo changed his mind and wanted to see Alice before going to Yangzhou.
Li Qin felt a little more uncomfortable when she heard this: "...Xiao Huo, a woman's pregnancy is a very sensitive period. Alice doesn't say it, but you should spend more time with her, so it's hard to find her personality!"
Meng Huo was silent. A woman's emotions are prone to more changes after pregnancy and become more sensitive, but Alice gave her the same feeling as usual, so Meng Huo didn't care too much.
But when Li Qin mentioned this, he realized that Alice might have deliberately hidden her changes and did not want him to worry.
But if Meng Huo was really so inhumane, just so close to see it once a month, Alice would definitely not be happy in her heart and would not say it out loud, but when she was in the spotlight, Meng Huo found that she was indeed sitting in the wrong place.
