Married by Accident: The Rich CEO's Deeply Rooted Pampering Tactics

Chapter 226 So, you're saying you deserve credit?

Bai Ge was momentarily at a loss for words. She paused for a moment before replying.

"It's true, but that's not how it is. Qiao Luo and I, we..."

Before Bai Ge could finish explaining, Lin Mei interrupted her, "Editor-in-Chief Tang, did you hear that? She has already admitted it."

Bai Ge wanted to argue, but Editor-in-Chief Tang didn't give her a chance. After all, Editor-in-Chief Tang didn't care about the facts; her only concern was the news story.

After all, for media professionals, the most important thing is to race against time to grab the exclusive front page; everything else can be ignored.

Lin Mei grasped precisely this psychology of Editor-in-Chief Tang.

"Since this is true, send the manuscript to my email immediately."

After finishing his speech, Editor-in-Chief Tang turned around and went back to his office.

Lin Mei and Bai Ge were left standing there.

"Bai Ge, hurry up and do what Editor-in-Chief Tang tells you."

Seeing that she was still standing there without moving, Lin Mei chuckled and reminded her.

Bai Ge had no choice but to comply.

By the time Qiao Luo arrived, half an hour had passed.

"Bai Ge, how did things go? Where's Lin Mei?" Qiao Luo asked Bai Ge as soon as she arrived at the magazine office.

Bai Ge pursed her lips, her face full of guilt.

"Luo Luo, I'm sorry, I couldn't stop it. The manuscript has already been sent to Editor-in-Chief Tang's email."

Bai Ge said with a face full of self-reproach.

Although Qiao Luo felt somewhat regretful, she was more interested in how it happened than the outcome.

She couldn't quite understand how Lin Mei had discovered it.

So she asked,

"Bai Ge, what exactly is going on?"

Upon hearing her question, Bai Ge then explained what had happened. It turned out that after returning to the magazine yesterday, Bai Ge had started writing the news article.

Her original plan was to write the article herself first, and then send it out as soon as Qiao Luo confirmed it. This would prevent other media from getting the first chance and save a lot of time.

But who could have imagined that Lin Mei would look through her computer that morning and find that manuscript?

This is what happens next.

"Luo Luo, you can scold me all you want. Lin Mei stole such a great news story."

Bai Ge looked remorseful.

Qiao Luo didn't blame Bai Ge, after all, it was just an accident and something she couldn't control.

So she comforted Bai Ge, saying, "Bai Ge, don't blame yourself anymore. This isn't your fault. It's my fault. I should have made the decision sooner."

"No, Luo Luo, it's all my fault."

"Bai Ge..."

Just as the two were vying to take the blame, Qiao Luo's phone rang. It was Editor-in-Chief Tang calling, asking her to come to the office.

Qiao Luo had no choice but to do as she was told. When she arrived at Editor-in-Chief Tang's office, Lin Mei was also there.

Seeing her come in from outside, Lin Mei looked smug.

Qiao Luo knew that she was waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

She ignored Lin Mei's expression and instead said to Editor-in-Chief Tang, "Editor-in-Chief Tang, you wanted to see me?"

Editor-in-Chief Tang gestured for her to sit down. After Qiao Luo sat down, she asked seriously, "Qiao Luo, what exactly happened? Tell me."

Qiao Luo naturally understood what Editor-in-Chief Tang was referring to. She said, "I admit that I already knew about this yesterday at noon. The reason I didn't report it to the company at the time was because the authenticity of the information still needed to be verified, so I asked Bai Ge to keep it a secret for the time being."

After Qiao Luo finished explaining, before Editor-in-Chief Tang could speak, Lin Mei spoke first, "So, you also deserve credit?"

Her tone was sarcastic.
