She abandoned her husband first, then her children, and was ecstatic after the divorce.

Take a thousand steps back.

Although ghostwriting is common in the industry, it usually only causes a stir in a small circle. How did it end up on the internet?

Lin Qingran sensed something was wrong and immediately asked her assistants to compile the information currently available online and send it over.

Bo Ye sat beside Lin Qingran, accompanying her as she read through the articles one by one, and finally only managed to summarize one point.

"These articles are written in a style that can truly be called the Spring and Autumn Annals style, just like someone else's style."

Susukino is someone who never beats around the bush; she says what she means.

He almost wrote out the name Fu Xiuheng directly.

Lin Qingran sneered. It seemed that Fu Xiuheng still hadn't listened to her.

Fu Xiuheng would never understand the meaning of the phrase "behave oneself and keep to one's lot."

Fu Xiuheng was unaware of his other identity, and in the eyes of a president like him who was used to having absolute power and was arrogant, Jiang Yuanbai's status was not enough to pose any threat to him.

Therefore, he naturally assumed that Jiang Yuanbai was his weakness.

He tried to admit defeat in this way, which really shows a complete lack of moral character.

Bo Yeqi gritted his teeth, "This kind of person should just be stuffed into a sack and rolled down the mountain."

Lin Qingran imagined the scene Bo Ye had described and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"The teacher has many students, but very few of them have become famous in the industry and can be considered to have truly mastered his teachings," Lin Qingran said.

She pointed to the blurry photo on the computer screen, "The whistleblower didn't dare reveal too much, so he only dared to release this kind of photo. He thought no one would recognize it, but even in my next life, I would recognize this painting."

This painting was not painted by Jiang Yuanbai at all, but by Zhang Beichen, Lin Qingran's nominal senior brother.

Zhang Beichen is mediocre and cannot be considered talented in painting.

Back then, it was entirely thanks to family connections that Jiang Yuanbai had to beg and plead with him many times before Jiang Yuanbai reluctantly agreed to take Zhang Beichen as his apprentice.

Jiang Yuanbai treats all his apprentices equally. As long as they are willing to learn and put in the hard work, Jiang Yuanbai will do his best to teach them everything he knows. Zhang Beichen is no exception.

However, Zhang Beichen's skill level was really not that great; he could barely be considered mediocre. He could paint a couple of pictures, show them off to impress people, and help his family make some exchanges of benefits, which wouldn't be a big deal.

So when he held an art exhibition in Beijing that year, almost everyone immediately realized that Zhang Beichen wasn't selling paintings at all, but rather personal connections.

However, apart from Lin Qingran, Zhang Beichen was the first among all of Jiang Yuanbai's disciples to hold an art exhibition in China.

Although it's somewhat incongruous, we should still give them the respect they deserve.

Therefore, Jiang Yuanbai not only personally inscribed a message for Zhang Beichen's art exhibition, but also personally oversaw the event.

If Lin Qingran's guess was correct, the other party's strategy was to confuse the public.

After all, that happened ten years ago, and Zhang Beichen's art exhibition was not large in scale, so it wouldn't have been widely publicized by the national media.

Therefore, they could easily piece together the story, misrepresent it, and claim that the art exhibition that Jiang Yuanbai was supporting for his apprentice was Jiang Yuanbai's own art exhibition.

If he were to be accused of selling fake paintings, Jiang Yuanbai's reputation would likely be ruined in his later years.

Lin Qingran adjusted her goggles and turned to ask Xiao Zhou.

What did Dad say?

"Teacher Jiang said that in life, one is not only concerned with fame and fortune, but also with the opinions of others. However, those who betray their teachers are truly despicable."

Jiang Yuanbai, with his sharp eyes, immediately spotted the problem.

On the surface, it is Fu Xiuheng who is targeting Lin Qingran.

But behind the scenes, Fu Xiuheng colluded with Zhang Beichen to put Jiang Yuanbai in an unjust position.

Lin Qingran thought that Fu Xiuheng couldn't possibly be unaware of the consequences of doing this, but he still did it anyway.

Therefore, Lin Qingran cannot easily let go of either Zhang Beichen or Fu Xiuheng.

The most important thing now is to clean house.

Lin Qingran turned to look at Bo Ye and said with a smile.

"Now that things have come to this, I have to say a classic line from a domineering CEO novel."

"what?"

"It's getting cold, let's bankrupt the Zhang family."

Lin Qingran has a private Weibo account where she sometimes updates her paintings. Because she is known as Jiang Yuanbai's closed-door disciple, she has a considerable number of followers.

Each update causes a huge stir in the community, and even makes it to the trending topics a few times, drawing more attention to traditional Chinese ink painting.

It has been seven years since his last Weibo update.

Many years ago, when she returned to the Lin family and bid farewell to her identity as Jiang Jiuge, she chose to stop updating her work.

His return almost instantly ignited the entire art world, and incidentally blew up other circles as well.

On Weibo, hashtags such as "[Jiang Jiuge speaks out for her teacher]", "[Jiang Jiuge returns]", and "[Jiang Jiuge makes a powerful statement]" have already appeared on the trending topics list.

Lin Qingran not only used this account to clarify the ins and outs of the Jiang Yuanbai incident, but also attached a group photo of them at the art exhibition back then.

At the time, the buyer of the painting and Zhang Beichen held the painting together, and even Jiang Yuanbai had to stand to the side.

It goes without saying who the true author of this painting is.

Public opinion quickly reversed, and people began to condemn Zhang Beichen. Even his company was trending on social media and criticized.

The most interesting part of this matter is that when Lin Qingran discovered the trouble, the incident hadn't yet caused a huge stir.

It was precisely because of his fate that the story became widely known and spread.

I'm afraid Fu Xiuheng's face must be green with anger by now.

Although Fu Xiuheng is still hiding behind the scenes, he underestimated his own abilities and rashly dragged Zhang Beichen into the mess.

The all-powerful netizens in China are everywhere, and they quickly dug up some of the dirty deeds of the Zhang family.

At this moment, Fu Xiuheng should already be entangled with Zhang Beichen.

Lin Qingran looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction and smiled slightly.

"I also have to thank Fu Xiuheng for giving me this opportunity. Taking advantage of this popularity, the game can also do some marketing."

While the online flame war raged on, no one noticed that another trending topic was quietly climbing up the trending list.

When everyone came to their senses, they discovered that the newly released game from Shenghai Group had given its first batch of players extremely generous gift packs, which had earned it a great reputation and attracted a large number of new players.

Having laid a solid foundation, Sheng Hai Group has also issued a clarification through its official account.
