Qiao En was implying that Lu Xia simply had a stroke of bad luck.
Lu Xia did not look at the first article in the journal. After speaking to the assistant, she felt annoyed and indignant, so she was in no mood to read the article.
Qiao En had explained the situation to her, but Lu Xia felt even worse.
He might have claimed the article was special, but Lu Xia knew it was just an excuse.
Qiao En could tell Lu Xia still felt indignant. He put down the journal and asked. "Have you read the first article yet?"
Lu Xia was upset, so she was naturally in no mood to read it. Since she did not dare to throw a temper in front of Qiao En, she replied patronizingly. "I flipped through it briefly, but didn't read it in detail."
"Why don't you have a read? After you read it, you will know why your article was published second." Qiao En pointed to the table.
Lu Xia looked at Qiao En and picked up the journal.
