After rebirth, she first killed the book thief, and she was busy writing articles to save people

Since you have decided to have your cake and eat it too, you can't just go to see Dugu He with a try-it attitude.

Instead, we should try our best to ensure that we can “win”.

This not only gives her novel a chance, but also gives herself a chance, and also gives Dugu He a chance.

However, this opportunity cannot be "seized" by Jiang Baige alone, and requires the joint efforts of both of them.

Jiang Baige first confirmed with Lin Xingran whether before her book, there had been a situation where the topic submitted by Dugu He was reported, resulting in the topic being rejected.

After receiving a positive answer, Jiang Baige became more certain of his guess.

No matter if the person behind Meng Ping is the "cake man" or some other "rotten apple man", he has already seen the gap between a certain senior leader and Dugu He.

And using the report to seduce Huang Duguhe was his "pledge of allegiance" to the big boss.

However, this was different from the previous life when Lin Xingran concentrated on copyrighted books and didn't care much about online literature. In order to avoid a gap between the new and old editors, Dugu He took Meng Ping with him to work on copyrighted books, allowing him to take advantage of the opportunity.

In this life, influenced by Jiang Baige and Jing Chai, Lin Xingran also became interested in online literature, so she and Meng Ping participated in the selection of online literature topics at the same time.

Dugu He obviously valued Lin Xingran more, so Meng Ping did not get to know some topics, and his evil plan did not succeed.

Moreover, when he first started doing these little tricks, he was not very skilled, and some of them were too exaggerated and careless, so they were directly identified as malicious reports by the website, resulting in his account being blocked and the report failing.

Even if they were successful, some of them happened before Dugu He signed the topic and entered the publishing process, so they did not have much impact on her.

If Jiang Baige hadn't brought it up this time, Lin Xingran would hardly have connected the unexpected suspension of those topics, let alone associated it with Meng Ping.

But after Jiang Baige said that, Lin Xingran did not delay and immediately sorted out those topics and sent them to Jiang Baige - although she had already resigned, she had done the handover work meticulously before leaving, and she did not expect that it would come in handy now.

Jiang Baige confirmed the first release websites of these online articles one by one... As she expected, there were indeed books from Nanlin.com on them.

Before meeting Dugu He, she had already sorted out the information, data and lines of speech.

After meeting Dugu He, Jiang Baige exchanged brief greetings and then got straight to the point.

"Teacher Dugu, I believe Xingran has already told you about my concerns."

The image of Dugu He is similar to what Jiang Baige imagined: capable, shrewd, and bookish.

"But I also told Xingran that you guys are worrying too much." Dugu He pushed his glasses up, also confident, "I know Meng Ping's intentions are not right. When he was still an intern, he did something behind Xingran's back. But... I don't think he would be so stupid as to report the online article and cause damage to the publishing house."

Jiang Baige thought that Dugu He was naive.

Many people who enter the publishing industry have ideals and passions, so even experienced editors sometimes put too much trust in human nature.

What's more, Meng Ping works under Dugu He's nose every day. It's not surprising that she feels she knows him better than Jiang Baige or even Lin Xingran.

If it is so easy to convince Dugu He, then all the previous "homework" would be in vain.

Jiang Baige was neither panicked nor anxious.

She took out a notebook from her bag, read out several book titles one by one, and then asked, "Teacher Dugu, these are the online article selections that were accidentally interrupted after Meng Ping started working with you... right?"

Dugu He's expression said it all.

But she remained alert—to Jiang Baige: "How did you get this information? Is it...Xingran?"

The company's internal information should not be leaked under any circumstances.

What's more, Lin Xingran has already left the publishing house.

Even if this behavior was for the purpose of investigating Meng Ping, Dugu He could not agree with it.

Jiang Baige's answer was very frank: "Teacher Dugu, you misunderstood Xingran. She knew that I wrote for Nanlin.com. After several consecutive reports that the novels you were going to sign on Nanlin.com were taken down, she became too anxious and came to ask me if there was something wrong with Nanlin.com... That's all."

“Then these book lists…”

The cleverness of Jiang Baige lies in that she only talks about Nanlin.com which is related to her and does not mention anything else.

This makes her words more credible.

"Because I am an author for Nanlin.com, the editors often remind us to maintain good relationships with readers and avoid being reported and removed from the shelves... Otherwise, everything will be gone."

Having said that, Jiang Baige showed a helpless smile, which dispelled some of Dugu He's vigilance.

"They have always been very cautious about reporting... But just when Xingran mentioned this to me, my editor also told me that there were a lot of reports during that period and asked me to be careful. That's why I connected the two things together."

Dugu He nodded slightly and waited for her to continue.

"I have a good relationship with the editor, so I asked about the progress of those reports. From the website's perspective, blocking the posts is the most convenient. But we will also try to check the IP addresses of those reports... At that time, the editor told me that it was strange that these addresses almost all came from the same place, and it felt like... a malicious attack."

Hearing this, Dugu He placed his hands on the table and unconsciously clenched them into fists.

Jiang Baige saw it.

"The website checks this because it is actually a request from some authors... no author can accept that their hard work is wasted and their work is reported and blocked. After the website checks, it will be made public. If it is a large-scale malicious attack, the blockage will be lifted."

Jiang Baige took out a piece of white paper from her notebook and handed it to Dugu He: "You may not understand these IP addresses, but you can check... they all belong to the same place."

"We...publishing house?"

"Not all of them." Jiang Baige laughed. To be able to make Dugu He think this way meant that she had succeeded. "He's not that stupid. But it's true that they are concentrated near your publishing house... Let me guess, the house he rented is also nearby, right?"

"……Yes."

Now, Jiang Baige has said everything she needs to say.

The IP checking was all made up by her. But these addresses were all real, of course she hired someone to do it.

But are those important?

The important thing is that the way Dugu He looked at her, he had already accepted the fact that Meng Ping was an unstable factor: "So, you don't plan to sell this book?"

"On the contrary, I really hope that you, Mr. Dugu, will be in charge of this book."

Jiang Baige blinked her eyes: "Since fate has brought us together and we know their conspiracy...are we just going to let a little man do whatever he wants?"

"what do you mean……"

"Just kick away the stumbling blocks on the road. What do you think?"
