016, my wife is just very mysterious_1

Summer of Cloud Flowing, with tens of millions of followers on Weibo.

This account was peculiar, only posting its own original content and never replying to comments. It paid no heed to the accusations or verbal abuse from keyboard warriors; it seemed the account was only for logging purposes.

The posts by Summer of Cloud Flowing fell into two categories.

One was a wide variety of video edits, which were diverse and engaging, leading to many shares; the other was occasional original songs of frightening quality that would have many people looping them for a long time.

There were two reasons this Weibo account had become popular.

One was when Zizhuo Xi's acting was under fire as she started to gain fame. Summer of Cloud Flowing used a clip in which Zizhuo Xi had made a cameo and edited it to restore her reputation. The exquisite editing along with the stellar acting significantly improved Zizhuo Xi's image. That time, Zizhuo Xi gained a lot of fans, and so did Summer of Cloud Flowing.

The other incident occurred half a year ago when one of Summer of Cloud Flowing's original songs was plagiarized and pieced together, with altered lyrics. The fans went to the plagiarist to vent their anger, but Summer of Cloud Flowing merely posted a reassuring Weibo, stating that she would handle it herself. Indeed, three days later, the plagiarist admitted to the plagiarism, deleted the song, and apologized to Summer of Cloud Flowing.

Since then, many people speculated about the background of Summer of Cloud Flowing, and they admired her calm and impressive handling of situations, which earned her even more fans.

The account never accepted advertisements, and no one knew whether it was run by a team or an individual. The mysterious aura combined with tremendous talent made this account an unresolved enigma for many, and it was only natural that people were curious and followed it.

And now, Jiang Shan stood in front of Chu Liangxia, almost convinced that she was Summer of Cloud Flowing.

"You flatter me,"

After a momentary lapse, Chu Liangxia had already regained her composure and greeted Jiang Shan with a proper shallow smile.

Jiang Shan narrowed her eyes skeptically, staring at her.

Chu Liangxia appeared not to show any change in expression, calmly meeting her gaze with a hint of surprise and speechlessness in her eyes, as if she indeed found Jiang Shan's accusation inexplicable.

But Jiang Shan hadn't forgotten that this person was a graduate of the Beijing Film Academy.

And she had graduated with excellent results.

Her acting skills were naturally not to be underestimated.

"We've compared your video edits with those of Summer of Cloud Flowing, and many of your editing techniques are identical," said Jiang Shan, her expression somewhat stern but her tone slow and steady.

"You've compared?" Chu Liangxia raised her eyebrows slightly.

"That's not the point,"

"I'm indeed not Summer of Cloud Flowing," Chu Liangxia said with a light smile, "but..."

"But what?" Jiang Shan prompted, following her line of thought.

"I know her," Chu Liangxia enunciated slowly.

"Oh?" Jiang Shan seemed surprised, but her eyes remained very calm.

It was as if Chu Liangxia's response was within her expectations.

Truly a sly fox.

Chu Liangxia raised her eyebrows slightly, her lips curving into a subtle arc, "You should know that growing up in my kind of environment, a meager salary is not enough, and I'm in great need of money. Fortunately, I can exchange my talents for money with her... Why not?"

After pausing briefly and noticing Jiang Shan's contemplative expression, Chu Liangxia continued, "Moreover, if your hearing is fine, you should be able to tell that my voice does not match those in her songs."

Her words did hold a degree of credibility.

Chu Liangxia was a recent college graduate. Although she had certain skills and abilities, she wasn't that influential. Considering her upbringing in luxury, the salary from the TV station was indeed not enough for her to live on, so it made sense that she would look for ways to earn extra money.

Furthermore, Chu Liangxia's voice had always been a thorny issue for them, as it didn't match the vocals in those songs.

Mulling it over, Jiang Shan directly inquired, "How do you collaborate with her? Is she an individual or part of a team? Are there many others like you?"

"I believe I have no obligation to answer these questions," Chu Liangxia replied nonchalantly.

Jiang Shan's eyebrows lifted slightly, her conviction growing marginally.

Summer of Cloud Flowing... perhaps it truly wasn't her.

If she really wanted to clear herself of suspicion, she might have concocted a bunch of fabricated information to satisfy what Jiang Shan wanted to know.

After some thought, Jiang Shan smiled at her and then handed her a business card, "This is my card, if you need anything, feel free to contact me anytime. The remuneration here won't be low."

"Alright."

Chu Liangxia accepted the card, her demeanor undisturbed.

That was Jiang Shan's departure.

As for Chu Liangxia, she glanced at the card for a moment and then casually threw it into the trash can.

"Liangxia, I'm back!"

Accompanied by Lun Yixing's excited voice, a figure rushed from behind. Chu Liangxia had just turned around when she saw Lun Yi, who had already sped to a stop in front of her.

"Here, this is what I got for you."

Running out of breath, Lun Yi nonetheless presented the autograph to Chu Liangxia immediately.

"Thank you."

Chu Liangxia accepted it and simply expressed her gratitude.

Yet, she quickly heard Lun Yi voice confusion, "Huh?"

"What's the matter?"

Chu Liangxia lifted her eyes and followed Lun Yi's gaze.

She caught sight of Jiang Shan's figure just as it disappeared at the end of the hallway.

"Isn't that Jiang Shan?" Lun Yi blinked, watching the direction where Jiang Shan had left.

"You know her?" Chu Liangxia asked, puzzled.

"Can't say I know her," Lun Yi shook her head, explaining, "I just know she's the exclusive makeup artist for Goddess Qin."

Goddess Qin... Qin Yajun?

If Jiang Shan was Qin Yajun's person, then—

All that had just transpired seemed to make sense.

If Qin Yajun intended to consolidate her position in the industry, networking was one aspect, and on the other, she needed competent people who could work for her.

Mistaking her for Summer of the Drifting Clouds, then probing and getting close... If Qin Yajun had any issues, with the popularity of Summer of the Drifting Clouds on Weibo, just a word in support of Qin Yajun could definitely turn the tide.

Heh—

This water seemed deep; she really didn't want to wade into it.

That afternoon, Chu Liangxia kept busy with her work amid Lou Yingying's intentional or unintentional targeting.

Ordinarily, Chu Liangxia would stay to work overtime with everyone else, but now she had to leave on time to cook dinner, so she left the office as soon as the clock struck the hour.

The work could be done later; after all, her editing for Gongsun Shiqi had always been in sync with others. Later on, just finding some highlights and finishing the subtitles would generally suffice.

"Leaving so early?"

Seeing her pack up on the dot, Lun Yi was surprised and arched an eyebrow.

"Yeah, I have some things to take care of back home," replied Chu Liangxia.

"Oh," Lun Yi nodded, "then be careful on the way."

"Sure."

Chu Liangxia acknowledged and then left with her bag in tow.

It was getting late, and as soon as she left the TV station, Chu Liangxia quickened her pace.

She needed to stop by the supermarket first to buy some ingredients before heading home.

While at the supermarket, Chu Liangxia thought of Lang Lin and decided to call to ask what he felt like eating for dinner, only to realize she had missed a call from Lord Ling San.

Chu Liangxia immediately called back.

"What's the matter?" As soon as the call connected, Chu Liangxia asked.

"Two things," Lord Ling San's voice was somewhat grave, seemingly waiting for her to prepare mentally.

"Go ahead."

Stopping her search for vegetables, Chu Liangxia stood among the crowd, calmly asking.

"Lou Ruhui is pregnant," Lord Ling San began, his tone flat.

"I know," Chu Liangxia replied, her eyebrow flickering faintly.

"Also, Feng Ziheng has been hospitalized."
