Chapter 169: The Woman I Like

On Friday, Xu Jing happily called Meng Huo into the office.

"Look, we have occupied the newspapers for the past two days."

There was a thick stack of newspapers on the table, and Meng Huo took out a few pictures and looked at the title.

"The genius reappears, "The Male Public Relations Department of Yinglan University", "Dream Eater" has a hot sales on the first day, and Phoenix Company has achieved another success!" "The Weekly Boy" has been cut in half, and its sales are still hot!" "Phoenix Company has launched two new works, both men, women, young and old, and become a fan of Teacher He Xi with your wife, children, and parents!"

These are reports that praise Meng Huo and Phoenix. According to previous situations, such reports should be the mainstream of comic news this week, and the rest are some derogatory reports.

However, Meng Huo looked through it and found that the reports this week were different from the past. The number of reports that were praised and derogatory was not as good as the speculative analysis, and the targets of those analysis were not the content of the comics, but him.

"The Dream Eater - the autobiography of He Xi." "The Dream Eater has been dissected, and the Dream Eater proves the similarities between Zhencheng and He Xi in many ways!" "He Xi's combination reappears, Zhencheng and Qiuren are partnering, so does He Xi who appears at the Ninghai Carnival, have other partners?" "He Xi is so good at describing the truth of love - a secret love for his classmates in the third year of junior high school."

After reading these reports, Meng Huo was speechless.

"I know why I called you here?" Xu Jing said: "Your comic has caused quite a lot of controversy. You'd better accept a media interview and clear these rumors."

Meng Huo nodded: "Okay, when."

"Tomorrow, Ninghai TV Station wants to conduct an exclusive interview with you. The location is in the company."

Tomorrow is Saturday. But Meng Huo is still coming to the company to continue making games. Xu Jing's arrangements do not conflict with his time.

After leaving the office, Meng Huo walked towards the editorial department of "Weekly Boys". The editors of the editorial department were nervous about statistics. They would sort out all the comic data on this day of the week and also prepare for serialization next week, which seemed very busy.

However, busyness cannot stop these editors from being happy due to the popularity of the magazine's hot sales. Weekly Boys stopped decadence for several months and began to recover. This situation made everyone full of fighting spirit.

"To, Meng Huo, this is your readers' letter."

Alice held the box in front of Meng Huo, filled with envelopes and postcards.

"so much?"

Meng Huo was a little surprised.

"This has been processed. I have screened it. You can read the rest directly." Alice smiled and said, "You have always sent a lot of letters from readers, but I intercepted you in the past, so it shouldn't matter now."

Alice used to worry that Meng Huo was too young and was easily influenced by readers' letters. But now his identity has been exposed, and Meng Huo has not changed much. Alice felt that Meng Huo could read these letters now, but she threw away all the harassing and exaggerating ones.

Meng Huo picked up the postcard and looked at it-"Teacher He Xi. There are too few main plots in "Detective Conan". Can you speed up the progress?"

Several consecutive postcards are written with such readers' opinions, with some very pertinent comments and support.

"Do I need a reply?" Meng Huo asked.

Alice shook her head: "No, just look at it, just throw it away if you don't want to."

Of course, readers don’t need to reply to the letter. If everyone reply to a letter, Meng Huo will not need to draw comics. Of course, there will be exceptions occasionally. If there is any situation, if you need to reply, Alice will agree to Meng Huo in advance.

"No need to reply." Meng Huo breathed a sigh of relief: "Then let it go, I will watch it when I have time."

He said that, but as soon as Meng Huo was busy, he would definitely leave these letters behind.

He was ready to work, but Alice wasn't leaving.

"Is there anything else?"

"Well..." Alice pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Meng Huo, there were many reports in the morning that linked you to "Dream Eater". There will definitely be reporters going to investigate. You'd better call Chen Jie."

"Let her pay attention and don't be suspected to be the original heroine of "Dream Eater"."

Meng Huo was stunned. He had never thought about this at all, but Chen Jie's relationship with his fellow countrymen was not a secret. In addition, Ninghai Carnival had shown his face, so others were likely to target her.

If others regard Chen Jie as the heroine of "Dream Eater", and their scandals are rumored, Meng Huo will be fine, but she will definitely cause trouble for Chen Jie, and she doesn't like to attract attention...

"You are right, I lack consideration." Meng Huo sighed: "I can't disturb Chen Jie's life."

"Annoy her life?" Alice thought of Chen Jie's violence and her eyebrows jumped: "I don't think you have to worry about this problem at all. Chen Jie will solve it yourself. Just tell her not to talk to the reporters. What I worry about is that this matter will have a bad impact on you."

"Me?" Meng Huo was confused: "What impact can I have?"

He has gradually gotten used to other people's hype. He will not lose a single hair when the media likes to say anything.

"You underestimate your readers too much." Alice looked at Meng Huo deeply, and then said, "You'd better call Chen Jie early and let her stay more relaxed these two days."

"Oh, OK."

Meng Huo looked at the time and it happened to be over. He took out the phone and called.

"Reporter? Don't worry too much..." Chen Jie smiled and said, "Meng Huo, I'm going to Phoenix Company to dubber in the afternoon. Then it's a holiday. I'll stay at your house for two days. Isn't there anything going on?"

“Okay.”

Meng Huo was relieved. He thought that Chen Jie had escaped these days and that as long as he was interviewed tomorrow, the matter would be over.

But as Alice said, Meng Huo underestimated his readers.

Bai Ping is a top student at Ninghai No. 2 Middle School and a fan of He Xi. This girl born in a wealthy family has been self-disciplined and hardworking since she was a child, and she is very outstanding in both study, communication and personality.

She grew up with praise from adults and peers, but unlike other girls, Bai Ping would not dress herself up very beautifully. She always kept it clean and tidy, just like a white crane standing among the crowd.

Many boys pursue Bai Ping. But she never looked down upon anyone. She felt that no one was worthy of her. A handsome boy had no talent, and a talented boy looked ugly...

Only a boy who is smart and handsome, like a prince charming can make Bai Ping feel moved...

Bai Ping felt that she would never find such a person in her life, but when He Xi's identity was exposed a month ago, her heartbeat like many girls began to increase.

Talented, handsome, and a peer... He Xi is like a prince charming falling from the sky, instantly making Bai Ping fascinated him. However, as soon as this issue of "Weekly Boy" was released, Bai Ping found that she was betrayed.

She was in the classroom, watching the media analysis on her mobile phone.

"He Xi's works, except for "Pokemon", have more or less the atmosphere of love. Especially for the male and female protagonists of "Five Centimeters in Seconds", the bitter and helpless love still makes me feel sad. Why can a 16-year-old boy write such a true love?"

"After "The Dream Eater came out, all doubts were explained. Masashiro declared that he was a cartoonist in the third year of junior high school, and this time happened to be the debut time of Teacher He Xi."

"Machiro secretly fell in love with his classmate Yadou, so what about Teacher He Xi? Did he like someone before his debut? Or is he still like that person to this day?"

"If you analyze it carefully, it will definitely be a heartbreaking answer. How could a person who can write so many love stories have not experienced love? And the author believes that Teacher He Xi's love must have failed."

"We can see this from the works. The stories written by Teacher He Xi are bitter, and in the comics that have ended so far, love has no good results. Only Teacher He Xi has broken up can he write such cruel love."

Bai Ping feels more uncomfortable the more she looks. Teacher He Xi likes others?

She looked for other reports, and the general guesses were the same, and what she said was very reasonable. Bai Ping felt that the image of He Xi in her heart seemed to have been defiled. The He Xi she imagined was a pure and talented boy.

How could such a boy like other women?

Bai Ping flipped through the comments on her phone and felt that she was betrayed, and several girls also felt that He Xi in her mind had been destroyed.

"Let's go and ask Teacher He Xi clearly. If he likes other women, I won't like him!"

"Yes, we're going to find who that vixen is!"

He Xi's female fans were angry, but people with extreme thoughts like Bai Ping were decimals. Others did not point their finger at He Xi, but at the media and the women He Xi liked.

"Teacher He Xi must be innocent! We want to ask the newspaper clearly, they are talking nonsense again!"

"Teacher He Xi is so pitiful. No wonder he has been writing about love tragedies. He must have been deceived by some bad woman. We must teach that woman a lesson!"

In the afternoon, more and more girls expressed their opinions and gradually escalated into activities. Under the organization of interested people, some female fans gathered to the newspaper office, hoping that they would delete the reports.

There were also more than a dozen extreme female fans walking towards Phoenix Company, and they wanted to ask He Xi for the truth. Bai Ping was also among these people. After school, she came to the gate of Phoenix Company and walked to the alley on the side as agreed with her companions.

"Why do you want to gather in such a remote place?" Just as Bai Ping was surprised, she saw a girl wearing a mask in the alley.

"Are you here to find Teacher He Xi?"

The girl asked.

"Yeah, yes!" Bai Ping looked around: "Why are there so few people..."

"They went home and said they didn't want to disturb Teacher He Xi." Before the girl walked slowly, she narrowed her eyes slightly: "I strongly recommend that you go home too." (To be continued...)
