Chen Jie told Meng Huo on the phone about the holiday she spent in Qingcheng and also talked about her new job the next day.

"After my parents knew I was going to get a promotion, they took me to the city to buy a formal outfit. I clearly said no," Chen Jie said with a smile: "They were happier with my promotion than me, and even advised me not to sing again."

Her parents are very traditional people and don’t like their daughter to show up in public. Meng Huo also knew this early in the morning that Chen Jie’s personality was inherited from her parents, so no matter how good she is to be a star, she still wanted to leave the stage and do a serious job.

Meng Huo once thought that Chen Jie's ideas would change as she was welcomed by more and more people, but the result was not. Her stubbornness impressed him and was slowly conquered by her.

Because they had work the next day, the two of them didn't chat too late, so they finished the phone at 11 o'clock.

After one night, Chen Jie changed into the formal outfit she had just bought and dressed up well to come to Phoenix Building to report to Xu Jing.

“What is my job?”

she asked excitedly.

"Stand behind me."

Xu Jing replied.

"What?"

"Stand behind me and watch me do things." Xu Jing said: "You don't know anything now. Watch me learn from the side first. Sometimes I ask you, don't be a waste."

Chen Jie only then realized what Xu Jing meant. She was a little surprised, but this was indeed a good method. Compared to teaching her to do things directly, it would be easier to make her watch while watching. It not only tests her understanding, but also saves trouble.

She stood honestly on Xu Jing's side and watched him start his day's work

On this day, the rain in Yangzhou still did not stop. The news that He Xi appeared was leaked from somewhere. Early in the morning, the door of Huiyue Studio was filled with reporters.

"May I ask, is Teacher He Xi in there?"

"Huiyue has always denied rumors that she was acquired by Phoenix Company. Can she officially admit it now?"

"Is Teacher He Xi here to prepare a new animation?"

The reporters interviewed everyone who came in and out, but they didn't know that Meng Huo was sitting in the car not far away, watching the scene silently.

"Teacher. I don't know where the news was leaked." Qin Ming wiped his sweat while he had already made people strictly keep the secret. Unexpectedly, He Xi's trace would still be discovered so soon.

Meng Huo's mood was broken by the reporter in the morning. He really didn't want to go in through the gate: "Can you have a back door to enter?"

"Yes." Qin Ming nodded. Then he asked Gan Ning to drive around the studio and parked outside an inconspicuous alley: "Walking in this alley, we have a secret door, which we made not long ago."

Qin Ming secretly thanked that he had planned for the future. It turned out that Huiyue Studio had no back door. But he was worried that many reporters might block the door when He Xi came here, so he asked someone to open a door in this alley.

After getting off the car, Qin Ming led the way, and Meng Huo walked into the alley with him with an umbrella.

The alley was very dirty, and there was some garbage on the ground. He frowned and walked. Suddenly, a messy sound came from the front. Qin Ming was startled when he walked. Then he looked carefully and found that it turned out to be a black wolf dog.

"Teacher He Xi. It's okay, it's just a stray dog."

Qin Ming said, Meng Huo walked over and saw that the wolf dog was as thin as a firewood, and its sparse hair was stuck together by the rain. It looked at them vigilantly next to the pile of trash that was turned up, and a low warning sound came from his throat.

"Teacher He Xi, let's go in. Don't mess with this dog, it won't bite people."

Qin Ming said. Meng Huo nodded, looked at the wolf dog again, and then walked over to it. The wolf dog seemed very afraid of people, so he hid on the side and looked at them motionlessly. After they left, he lowered his head and flipped up the garbage dump.

After entering the studio, Meng Huo began to lead Huiyue Studio to officially start production of "Genius Mahjong Girl".

The artists were very excited, but in fact, this cannot be said to be the first time they made this animation. Before Meng Huo arrived, they had already done a lot of preparations. Many cartoon clips were prepared.

All of these animation clips were done well. Meng Huo proposed some modifications and then supervised the entire studio to carry out the animation of the first episode in a organized manner. He found that he didn't have to worry about the quality of the picture, just be a guide.

According to this situation, Meng Huo felt that he would be able to pull himself out of Yangzhou in less than two weeks.

However, at noon and during the break, the reporters outside showed no sign of dispersion. On several occasions, some people were planning to break in and were pushed out by the security guard. Meng Huo saw that the reporters outside would not give up until they found out.

Qin Ming was worried that the employees would be entangled by reporters after leaving get off work, so he ordered takeout for everyone, and the takeout was delivered directly to the studio. He did not let the takeout person approach Meng Huo.

However, after dinner, Meng Huo saw that the reporter was still not dispersed, so he suggested: "The press conference of "Genius Mahjong Girl" will be held in the afternoon."

"What?" Qin Ming was startled by him: "After afternoon?"

"Yes, you can let those reporters come in in the afternoon and hold a press conference for "Genius Mahjong Girl"." Meng Huo repeated: "I'll introduce this animation to them."

Qin Ming frowned: "But teacher, the animation premiere time has not been determined yet. Is this too hasty?"

"The premiere time is not urgent. You can wait until the animation is almost done before confirming." Meng Huo said: "The press conference can be held now."

The work situation in the morning was very satisfying. He felt that there was no need to delay any further. Although Qin Ming felt it was too sudden, since He Xi said so, he naturally did not continue to object.

"I'll go down and give orders right away."

Qin Ming turned around and ordered.

In the afternoon, the reporters were put in. Meng Huo announced the production of "Genius Mahjong Girl" in the first half of the press conference, and introduced the process of Huiyue Studio joining Phoenix Company. However, he threw it to Qin Ming halfway through the press conference and left the conference room before being entangled by the reporter.

The press conference continued, but Meng Huo picked up the umbrella.

"Does the teacher want to go back?" Gan Ning asked.

"Yes." Meng Huo nodded: "Send me back."

Gan Ning immediately packed up his things and then protected him and walked out through the back door.

In the alley, Gan Ning led the road ahead.

"Why is this dog still here!"

He suddenly stopped and it turned out that he saw the black wolf dog on the road again. It was still rummaging for the garbage in the alley. Meng Huo walked over with some curiosity.

"Teacher He Xi, don't go over, it's too dirty." Gan Ning said hurriedly.

Meng Huo stopped and turned around and said, "Is there anything to eat?"

"Eat it? Teacher He Xi, you are really sympathetic..." Gan Ning smiled and said, "Why should I go out and buy skewers of sausage?"

Meng Huo nodded, Gan Ning ran out of the alley with an umbrella, and then bought a few sausages from the small shop on the street. He brought them back: "Teacher He Xi, it should be able to eat this?"

"It should."

Meng Huo took the sausage and placed it in front of the wolf dog.

The wolfdog looked at the two of them vigilantly, then lowered her head and smelled the sausage, licked it. Then she ran away quickly with the sausage in her mouth.

"Teacher He Xi, let's go!"

Seeing that the wolf dog had already eaten, Gan Ning said to Meng Huo.

"Okay." Meng Huo followed him two steps, then felt something was wrong, so he looked back at the direction the wolf dog left and said, "Let's take a look."

"Why?"

"I'm a little strange." Meng Huo walked towards the direction where the wolfdog left and replied, "Why does it stay in this alley all day?"

"Is this strange?" Gan Ning couldn't figure it out. This is a stray dog, so there is nothing strange about it.

But Meng Huo saw that if this dog's bitch was an ordinary stray dog, it would not be easier to find some food in other places. How could he stay in the same alley for so long? Instead, it seemed like he was protecting something.

Of course this was just his guess. Meng Huo hoped that he had guessed wrongly, but the result was the same as he thought. He found a bitch eating sausage by a dumped trash can. This seemed to be its small nest, and there were some puppies squeezing beside it to drink milk.

“1,2…9…”

Meng Huo counted the puppies, and the more he counted, the more he felt uncomfortable. It was not that he was full of sympathy, but three or four of the puppies in this litter were obviously unable to move. Even if he was not dead, he could not be saved.

There are 9 puppies barely alive, but they are also very fragile. This bitch is too thin, inadequate in nutrition, and not enough milk. If they don't care about them, these puppies will die here in the future.

"So pitiful..." Seeing this scene, Gan Ning was also a little unbearable.

Meng Huo suddenly said, "Raising them!"

"Ah?" Gan Ning was stunned: "Teacher He Xi, do you want to raise a dog?"

"No, it's not me..." Meng Huo shook his head and then smiled: "It's you."

He thought it would be feasible to keep the dog in Huiyue Studio. They don’t have to worry about the food expenses, and the dog can help them guard the door at night. Isn’t this the best of both worlds?

Gan Ning was a little amused. Teacher He Xi was so mean, but he said so. Gan Ning took a look at the doghouse again. These puppies were really pitiful, so how could he not do it?

"Then I'll talk to the minister."

"Go!"

Meng Huo waved his hand with a smile.

Gan Ning then ran back to the studio quickly, and not long after, he came out with a few female painters.

"Teacher He Xi, Minister agrees!"

He said happily, and the female painters gathered around.

"Those dogs?"

"So pitiful, save them!"

When the girls saw the bitch and its children, they immediately felt sympathy. Unfortunately, the dog was not happy when he heard their voices, but instead stood up quickly and roared at the group of people, warning not to get close.

"Let me do it! I have a dog at home, I know how to deal with it!"

A girl stood up confidently, then bent down and slowly reached out to the bitch.

"Dog, don't be afraid...we are not bad people..."

She comforted the bitch with a gentle voice, but just as she was about to touch the other person, the dog suddenly stretched out his head and almost bit her hand. Fortunately, the girl reacted quickly enough to withdraw her hand, so she was not injured.
