While initiating the station-wide broadcast, the system distributed a large number of gifts to Mu Nianwen’s live room.
Countless people poured in, and the live broadcast room instantly became the first in the section in terms of popularity.
Mu Nianwen was stunned for a moment, then finally came to his senses: “Thank you, Charming TJL, for sending me… how many Wish Balloons was that? Let me calculate with a calculator… Six thousand, nine hundred and ninety-three Wish Balloons! Oh my god, I’ve never seen so many Wish Balloons in my life!”
The live broadcast room was lively, and those small accounts that had been causing trouble were silent.
The bullet comments were flying fast, but the comments from high-level accounts were displayed separately. Charming TJL had just climbed to the top of the VIP list in the live broadcast room, and his comments came with special effects.
Mu Nianwen paid attention, but this person didn’t say a word other than sending gifts.
“The boss’s name is really special, with a unique temperament,” he deliberately interacted with Charming TJL, “Is there any special meaning behind it?”
Unfortunately, the other party still didn’t speak.
TJL was sparing with words, so Mu Nianwen didn’t continue to pester him and instead steered the conversation back after expressing a bunch of thanks.
At this moment, although his eyes were still slightly red, Mu Nianwen had calmed down.
“As for the accusations against Na’er, my response ends here. It’s much easier to prove that someone has done something than to prove they haven’t. Unless substantial evidence is provided, I won’t waste any more time on this matter. I’m very grateful to friends who are willing to believe and support me. As for those who doubt me, it’s up to you, but I’m very sorry for your foolishness.”
The new audience pouring in brought higher viewership data, and after the live broadcast heated up, more streaming opportunities were obtained, forming a virtuous cycle.
Although many people came and went, the overall traffic of the live broadcast room was still much higher than usual.
All of this was thanks to the 6993 Wish Balloons sent by Charming TJL.
Mu Nianwen was completely unfamiliar with this name.
Except for such special occasions like today, Mu Nianwen usually individually thanked viewers who sent three yuan worth of small gifts with their IDs. Such a unique account name would leave an impression after just one mention. So, this should be a new viewer, or someone who had never sent a gift before.
Someone who could spend over a million at once surely wouldn’t have only sent a dollar before, right?
In his years of live broadcasting, Mu Nianwen had encountered many big spenders, but someone who was so generous was truly a first.
He felt grateful to him and took the initiative to send a private message to this person after the broadcast, roughly saying thank you very much for helping him out today and hoping that his future broadcasts would bring happiness to the person as well, ending with some auspicious words.
After sending it, he carefully observed the person’s account and soon realized why he hadn’t spoken a word.
This big spender, Charming TJL, surprisingly hadn’t linked a phone number and could only send gifts, unable to chat.
The account had been registered for a very short time, just over two months.
Mu Nianwen once suspected that this might be a new account opened by Xiao Can, but quickly dismissed the idea. Because according to the account’s achievements, Charming TJL had already received a reward of five hundred thousand two weeks ago.
Today, the medal was upgraded to one million.
Charming TJL hadn’t opened a live broadcast room, but surprisingly had three fans. Upon clicking in, they were all small streamers in the gaming section. They should have come voluntarily after receiving large rewards from him.
And his attention list only has one person: Mu Nianwen.
Mu Nianwen personally visited each of the three streamers who followed Charming TJL, all of whom were Alphas, and without exception, Charming TJL was the first on the VIP list of the live broadcast room.
Taking all this into account, Mu Nianwen roughly had a portrait of Charming TJL in his mind.
From the account name, it should be a middle-aged person who has succeeded in their career. They had a certain interest in games, but they were not very good at playing this type of app, very indifferent, not your average rich person, occasionally tipping streamers generously, showing a disregard for money.
The recipients of his regular tips were legitimate game streamers without any controversial elements, indicating that he was not the kind of person with low taste and unethical behavior.
Perhaps he felt sorry for him seeing him crying and cursing in the live broadcast room, so he decided to help as an elder. That’s why he lent a helping hand.
However, since he has already followed him, he should continue to occasionally come and support him in the future.
It’s really a blessing in disguise.
This farce was not completely over yet, but so far, Mu Nianwen had made a steady profit.
The private message he sent to Charming TJL went unanswered, completely ignored.
In the following two days, Charming TJL did not appear in his live broadcast room either.
Mu Nianwen pondered secretly whether he had been too proactive, making Charming TJL think he was the kind of person who was not serious and wanted to take advantage of the situation.
Or maybe he was just casually giving away money as he passed by, without taking it to heart.
On the other hand, Zhenzhu Zhuna’er responded. He cried in the live broadcast room and said that the previous news was revealed to him by a kind friend. For the sake of protecting this friend, he couldn’t provide specific screenshots. His intention was not to blame Mu Nianwen, after all, they both were hardworking streamers trying to make a living and were forced into this situation. streamers should unite, and he felt very sorry for the trouble caused to Mu Nianwen.
Mu Nianwen watched the recording and nearly rolled his eyes to the sky.
Zhenzhu Zhuna’er’s explanation didn’t work as well as before, and there were quite a few doubters. Of course, there were also many who sided with him, saying, “Na’er didn’t mean it on purpose. Being willing to apologize is better than many people.”
After the organization helped to privately mediate, Zhenzhu Zhuna’er took the initiative to add Mu Nianwen as a friend.
Mu Nianwen didn’t accept it and didn’t respond publicly either.
He said if there was no evidence, he wouldn’t bother, and he would stick to his guns.
He didn’t care about this kind of person and didn’t care to deal with them.
So, a week passed like this. As everything gradually calmed down, Charming TJL appeared again in Mu Nianwen’s live broadcast room.
As the broadcast was about to end, Mu Nianwen sighed at the task bar in the live broadcast room, asking if there were any kind-hearted people willing to help complete that day’s star-level task. It was just a little bit short, it would be a pity to give up like this.
Several viewers sent him small gifts worth three yuan each, and he thanked them one by one, blowing kisses and making heart gestures.
Such enthusiastic responses could really mobilize the audience’s enthusiasm. In no time, small gifts piled up, and the task line was smoothly completed.
“You guys are amazing, I’m so happy!” Mu Nianwen smiled and enlarged the camera window that was originally tucked in the lower right corner to the entire screen, “Are you not tired yet? Then I’ll add half an hour to today’s broadcast and chat with everyone!”
At this time, a bullet comment floated by: Are you so happy with only four stars? Your competitor has five stars.
Mu Nianwen’s expression froze for a moment.
It seems that guy accumulated quite a few true fans after that incident.
“I also want five stars, but being content is important,” he shrugged, “Being too focused on gains and losses and comparisons will make you unhappy.” He said with a smile, squinting his eyes, and raised his finger, “But if you guys are willing to boost me to five stars, of course, I’ll be very happy!”
The bullet comments were full of “next time for sure.”
Mu Nianwen wasn’t angry and pretended to nod seriously, asking, “When’s next time? Come on, give me a date, I’ll write it down and chase after you then.”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a ding sound, and three aircraft carriers dragging rainbows floated across the live broadcast room.
Immediately after, the five-star task appeared.
Mu Nianwen covered his mouth in surprise: “Wow! Thanks… Thanks to the three rainbow aircraft carriers sent by charming TJL! Boss is so generous~! Haven’t seen Boss TJL for a while, right? Are you busy lately? Take care of yourself!”
charming TJL remained silent as usual.
Many people in the live broadcast room remembered this boss, and they all clamored.
Mu Nianwen said a bunch of appreciative words again, while secretly opening the chat box with charming TJL.
It was empty inside, with only his previous message.
Does this guy not even know how to read private messages?
After the broadcast, Mu Nianwen tried sending another thank-you message, but still received no response.
If you don’t reply, that’s fine, as long as you’re here.
After that, TJL became a frequent visitor to his live broadcast room, sending gifts every time, ranging from thousands to tens of thousands, and long-term occupying the first place in Mu Nianwen’s live broadcast room VIP list.
Two months passed like this, and the silent charming TJL achieved the achievement of receiving 2.5 million in rewards.
Mu Nianwen loved him to death.
There was no boss more likable than this, not only generous, but also didn’t require any maintenance, completely like a godsend.
Thanks to him, Mu Nianwen finally achieved second place in the special activity, leaving the fourth-placed Zhenzhu Zhuna’er in the dust.
On the night the rankings were announced, Mu Nianwen celebrated in the live broadcast room.
Because the gap with the first place was not big, some viewers expressed regret, and many people joked that “Boss TJL was just one step away.”
“Second place is already good enough, right? I’ve never gotten such a high ranking before!” Mu Nianwen said, “Why are you guys greedier than me!”
TJL remained silent as usual.
Viewers who often watched Mu Nianwen’s live broadcasts were already very familiar with this big shot, and they all sighed that Boss TJL was really mysterious. One person on the VIP list said that TJL never spoke online and seemed to have never attended offline VIP gatherings either.
Every quarter, Mu Nianwen would actively invite VIPs in the live broadcast room to gather for a meal.
Many people considered it unethical for streamers to privately communicate with big shots, but Mu Nianwen didn’t avoid it.
His treat was always public, and he invited multiple people each time, open and upright.
“I did invite Boss TJL to the last gathering,” Mu Nianwen told everyone, “but Boss didn’t reply to me.”
TJL remained silent as usual.
The crowd sighed that Boss TJL was truly transcendent and suggested changing his name to TJL god.
After the broadcast that day, Mu Nianwen finally received a reply from the legendary TJL god.
—Sorry, I just saw the private message [sweating]. Can you give me your contact information?
Mu Nianwen burst out laughing on the spot.
After exchanging contact information, Mu Nianwen quickly understood the twists and turns in between.
It turns out that users who had not passed mobile verification not only couldn’t send bullet comments, but their private messages would also be intercepted, and the backstage would only show a red dot and a prompt for authentication.
The red dot in the background of charming TJL had been on since before he met Mu Nianwen, and he had no awareness that Mu Nianwen would send him a private message, so he had never paid attention to it.
It wasn’t until today in the live broadcast room that he heard Mu Nianwen’s words that he realized what he had missed.
Mu Nianwen, while feeling both amused and regretful, actually regretted it a bit.
In this way, this big boss also became someone who needed to be maintained. If he didn’t serve him well, wouldn’t it be a huge loss?
What was even scarier is that TJL actively asked him how to qualify for offline gatherings.
This was too polite. Mu Nianwen had no problem organizing a last-minute gathering for him.
Out of resistance to the image of that middle-aged uncle in his mind, Mu Nianwen replied pretentiously: “Whenever you come, I can treat you anytime!”
Charming TJL’s personal information showed that they were not in the same city and were quite far apart.
Unexpectedly, the other party immediately sent a location, telling him: “I’m here now.”
This was unnecessarily coincidental.
Mu Nianwen couldn’t refuse anymore, so the two agreed to meet two days later on Saturday afternoon. Mu Nianwen told him that he would also bring a few friends with him, and the other party readily accepted.
He thought this was going to be a reserved, aloof uncle, but the actual encounter was very different from his imagination.
TJL was gentle and polite. Although they only communicated through text, Mu Nianwen could feel that he was a very kind person, quite different from the extravagant image of him lavishing money in the live broadcast room.
This, of course, was not off-putting. What made Mu Nianwen uneasy was that Charming TJL seemed very eager to meet him.
A middle-aged tycoon who had spent over two million on him in over two months, and now urgently wanted to meet him offline—what a dangerous signal.
He had to handle this carefully.
They agreed to meet at a trendy restaurant.
A few days ago during a live broadcast, Mu Nianwen casually mentioned being interested in it, and Charming TJL actually remembered. When they discussed where to go, he suggested meeting there.
Such small details were quite touching.
On the appointed day, Mu Nianwen first met up with his friends before heading to the restaurant they had booked.
He had wanted to invite more people to make it livelier, but due to time constraints, only one person could tag along.
The girl accompanying him was named Xiao Xiao, a moderator in his live broadcast room. When Mu Nianwen was still an unknown small streamer, she was already his loyal viewer.
A few years ago, Xiao Xiao was still a student with no money, unable to afford valuable gifts. She diligently checked in every day to accumulate popularity for him, actively chatting and enlivening the atmosphere in the live broadcast room.
Mu Nianwen was deeply moved. After adding her as a friend, the two of them chatted very well and gradually became friends in real life.
Xiao Xiao was ecstatic to meet the legendary big shot Charming TJL.
“Are you sure he’s a middle-aged uncle?” she asked Mu Nianwen. “I feel like he’s cool, like the domineering CEOs in romance novels!”
“He should be not young,” Mu Nianwen said, “and his temperament has nothing to do with ‘domineering.'”
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Xiao clasped her hands together. “I hope he’s a handsome guy.”
“You’re being unrealistic,” Mu Nianwen laughed.
Beauty had always been a scarce resource. If someone was already so wealthy, if they were also exceptionally good-looking, the world would be too unfair.
As soon as they got off the subway, Mu Nianwen received a message.
“He says he’s already here,” he told Xiao Xiao.
“So early!” Xiao Xiao checked the time and confirmed, “How proactive.”
“Let’s hurry up and go up too,” Mu Nianwen said, “Let’s not offend the big boss.”
Xiao Xiao clasped her hands together again, repeating, “I hope he’s handsome.”
“What are you doing?” Mu Nianwen couldn’t help but smile. “Whether he’s handsome or not has nothing to do with us. We’re here to entertain today, understand?”
“It does matter. What if he’s a middle-aged baldie with yellow teeth and bad breath? That would ruin the meal!” Xiao Xiao said.
Mu Nianwen frowned. “Don’t say such scary things.”
The popular restaurant strictly adhered to the reservation time. They couldn’t enter if they arrived early. When they arrived, there was already a long line at the door.
“Don’t see any middle-aged men…” Xiao Xiao murmured, scanning around.
Then she reached out and pulled Mu Nianwen’s sleeve, “Look over there!”
Mu Nianwen followed her gaze and saw a man leaning against the railing, lost in thought.
“So handsome!” Xiao Xiao said, “Could that be him?”
Not very close, the man still had his head down, making it impossible to see his face clearly, but one could roughly make out a high nose bridge and a well-defined jawline, coupled with a tall stature, which indeed warranted the description of a handsome.
“How is that possible,” Mu Nianwen chuckled, “This guy doesn’t seem to have much money.”
The dressing of this male Alpha looked very ordinary at first glance, with no unique designs or logos, very plain.
Compared to the extravagant spenders, his slightly melancholic temperament and slightly curly short hair resembled more of a struggling artist who could barely afford canvases without assistance.
“True,” Xiao Xiao muttered, “He looks like someone who could be supported by a rich older woman.”
Unable to spot anyone resembling TJL in his field of vision, Mu Nianwen picked up his phone and dialed the other person’s number.
As he pressed the call button, he subconsciously glanced at the Alpha from before a few more times.
Although he knew it was unlikely, he couldn’t help but hope that it was him.
As the ringing sound echoed in his ears, the man in his line of sight lowered his head, took out his phone from his pocket, and then held it to his ear.
At the same time he spoke, Mu Nianwen heard a gentle male voice coming from the phone.
“Hello, where are you?”
Mu Nianwen was stunned for a moment and said, “…look to your left.”
Upon hearing this, the other person straightened up and turned his head.
The two locked eyes from a distance of seven or eight meters.
Mu Nianwen finally saw the other person’s face clearly.
His mind went blank for a moment, and then suddenly, a strong sense of panic surged in his heart.
The other person, however, appeared much more natural than him, immediately squinted his eyes and showed a gentle smile, walking towards them briskly.
“Wow,” Xiao Xiao whispered in awe, “So handsome! Is it really him?”
The other person quickly arrived in front of them and greeted them with a smile, “Hello, I am…”
Mu Nianwen was still in a daze, but Xiao Xiao, excitedly, continued, “Charming TJL!”
The other person was taken aback for a moment, then slightly lowered his head, looking a little embarrassed, “To be called that in real life feels a bit…”
“What’s your name?” Mu Nianwen’s heart was pounding, his expression tense as he asked.
“My surname is Tan,” he said, “Tan Janglin. You can just call me by my name.”
