In mid-November.

At 7:30 pm, Meng Huo stood up while packing his drawings: "Today's comics are all here, I'll get off work first!"

"Eh?" Several female cartoonists in the studio looked at him strangely: "Teacher He Xi, get off work so early today?"

"Yes." Meng Huo laughed, then walked out with the original manuscript of "Chess Soul".

After he left, Bai Han looked at Qin Ya with a little curiousness: "Teacher Qin Ya, Teacher He Xi usually leaves the last time. Is there anything he has to do today?"

"...I don't know either." Qin Ya shook her head, but she knew the truth in her heart. Today is the day when Chen Jie comes back, and Meng Huo must have wanted to get off work early to see her - but this matter cannot be told to her assistants, it will be bad if it is spread.

Qin Ya is very conservative in this kind of gossip-provoking news.

"Okay, Teacher He Xi is not here, but you can't relax." She clapped her hands, diverted the attention of her assistants, and said, "Next week's "The Legend of the Galaxy Song" is about to be finished. You all speed up the pace. We will complete it today!"

"Hey! Why is it so fast!", "Then will it take a holiday tomorrow?"

The assistants were both surprised and happy, and their hands became faster.

After leaving the studio, Meng Huo quickly walked back to his apartment. He took out the key and planned to open the door, but heard a song coming from inside. Meng Huo was stunned for a moment, then took the key back, reached out and pushed the door, and the door opened as expected.

"Ah, Meng Huo, you're back!" Alice, the first person to notice the sound of opening the door, stood up on the sofa in the living room, and came to greet her.

"Did you open this door?" Meng Huo asked while changing into slippers.

"Well. The administrator here saw Shen Jie and I come over and took the initiative to help us open the door." Alice replied with a smile. She and Shen Jie were both regular customers here. The staff who managed and cleaned the apartment recognized them and knew that their relationship with Meng Huo was not ordinary.

Meng Huo changed his shoes: "Where is Chen Jie?"

His eyes looked along the song, and before Alice could answer, Meng Huo knew the answer: "She is in the kitchen?"

"Yes." Alice nodded: "It's rare to come back once, she said she wanted to cook for you to prepare dinner." In the past, Chen Jie returned to Comic Island, and Meng Huo was welcome to cook. However, this time, Meng Huo was busy with work, so Chen Jie took the initiative to show her attention.

"Okay, please help me put these comics in the study, I'll go and see Chen Jie..."

Meng Huo handed the original manuscript to Alice, and then walked towards the kitchen. The kitchen was making soup, and the pressure cooker was whimpering. Chen Jie seemed to have not noticed Meng Huo's return. She turned her back to Meng Huo. She was humming a song while skillfully stir-frying the dishes.

I haven't met for several months. But from Chen Jie's performance, she looks in good condition. Meng Huo smiled slightly: "Do you need my help?"

"No need...hey? Meng Huo!" Chen Jie was startled when she heard the voice and looked back: "Why are you back? Didn't you say it will take half an hour!"

"I'm not working today." Meng Huo walked over and helped Chen Jie to help him: "Besides, you're a rare opportunity to come back. I originally wanted to come back early to make some delicious food for you... but you took the lead."

Chen Jie couldn't help but smile and said, "How can you do it every time? It hurts my self-esteem!"

At this time, Alice, who had put the original manuscript of the comic, also walked to the kitchen door. She looked at the two people talking inside, thought for a while, but did not go in to disturb her, but returned to the living room, picked up the tea and started drinking.

Dinner is still a supper for three people. It looks weird to outsiders, but these three people are used to this kind of scene and the atmosphere is not awkward at all.

"My mom likes watching "clannad" very much!" Chen Jie smiled at the dining table, "My dad has also watched a few episodes, but compared to this animation, he seems to prefer "Mobile Suit Gundam 00" and has been competing with my mom for TV these weeks."

"Oh, who won that?" Alice was very interested in the topic.

"No one won, I won." Chen Jie said proudly: "I bought a new TV for them online, and they don't make a fuss anymore... By the way, Meng Huo, my mother often calls your mother. Both of them like "Clannad" very much and can chat for a long time every week!"

Meng Huo nodded: "I heard from my mother about this, but does your dad really hate "clannad"?"

"How can it be!" Chen Jie shook her head immediately: "It's just relative. "Mobile Suit Gundam 00" is about to reach its climax, and my dad is watching it very hard! But when the "Clannad" is broadcast to the end, I believe he will definitely watch it again!"

Chen Jie is also confident about the charm of "Clannad". If it can't attract his father, there will be no animation to attract it.

"But at my house, my dad was chasing "The Rebellious Lelouch." Alice smiled and said, "Several times, he told me how Meng Huo, how did you do this head? How could you think of such a wonderful plot!"

Meng Huo heard Xu Jing praise "The Rebellious Lelouch". Such an animation that is tense, exciting, and full of strategy and wisdom is deeply loved by Xu Jing. In fact, it is not only Xu Jing, but also Dong Ding.

In the eyes of these smart old men, "The Rebellious Lelouch" is a rare animation that suits their appetites, and the strategies in it make them appreciate it even more.

"Speaking of this, "Clannad" is about to be branched." Alice remembered this incident and sighed: "After the animation story branch, there are four animations here. I can't finish watching the previous works, so it's even harder to choose this time."

"That's right!" Chen Jie said after hearing the voice: "There were enough animations. After "The Rebellious Lelouch" came out, I had to consider what to watch in advance every week. Now, with "Clannad", I will have to worry about it every day in the future."

Meng Huo smiled bitterly. China launched a lot of animations this year, and he was no exception. This is one of the reasons why he did not want to launch more new animations. At least before the Chinese New Year, these works now are enough to make animation audiences carnival.

"Chong Elf", "Mobile Suit Gundam 00", "Rebellious Lelouch", and the four lines of "Clannad"... Just an animation with the label "He Xi" is enough to occupy every day of every week.

There is no doubt that at this time, Meng Huo has reached his most prosperous period since his debut in the animation industry. (To be continued, please search for Piao Tianwen, novels are better, updated and faster!
