“Hey handsome, do you have any space here? Can we sit here?”
Mu Li heard a sweet female voice from behind him. He subconsciously turned around and saw two girls wearing masks and sunglasses standing behind him.
“Huh?” Mu Li felt his brain was a bit slow to process.
What did these two mean?
Wait, why did the girl behind her look a bit familiar?
Mu Li’s eyes widened instantly. Even though the other party was wearing a mask and sunglasses, he recognized the familiar outline at a glance.
“Pei Pei?” Mu Li asked tentatively.
“What the heck!” Before Fu Peiyao could react, Mu Qingqing complained first, “You can still recognize us even dressed like this?”
With that, Mu Qingqing took off her mask and sunglasses, pouted, and sat directly on the stool.
Fu Peiyao’s lips curved into a beautiful arc: “Your eyesight is pretty good!”
Upon hearing that voice, Mu Li completely confirmed the identity of the person in front of him: “It really is you!”
“Mmm…” Fu Peiyao hummed softly and sweetly, sitting down with Mu Qingqing. She casually removed her sunglasses and mask, revealing the stunning beauty hidden beneath them.
The moment Fu Peiyao revealed her true face, Mu Li felt as if the entire cafe was illuminated by something. At this moment, he felt as if he was on a stage, watching a performance, and the only spotlight on this stage shone on Fu Peiyao.
“So beautiful…” Mu Li couldn't help but murmur. For some reason, some images seemed to echo in his mind.
Among those images, there was one where he and Fu Peiyao, both wearing white shirts, stood in front of a red background, preparing to take a photo.
The next second, the scene changed, as if time had fast-forwarded. In the next image, he and Fu Peiyao were each holding a small baby, and they smiled at each other.
At this moment, Mu Li had even prepared to name the child.
At the same time, an old song from Blue Star began to play in his mind.
“I walk you to the outskirt of the village, there’s something I need to tell you…”
“Hello? Hello?” Seeing that Mu Li’s eyes had glazed over, Mu Qingqing couldn't help but reach out her slender, fair hand and wave it in front of Mu Li’s eyes.
“Ah?” Mu Li suddenly awoke from his fantasy. Seeing Mu Qingqing in front of him, he asked somewhat confusedly, “Did you hear anything?”
Mu Qingqing was startled: “What sound?”
Mu Li’s lips curved into a silly smile: “It’s an old song…”
“What are you talking about?” Mu Qingqing couldn't help but roll her eyes and turned to look at Fu Peiyao. But Fu Peiyao didn't look much better than Mu Li; she was staring at Mu Li, not knowing what she was thinking.
Mu Qingqing had completely given up: “These two are hopeless.”
Apparently, Mu Li had not yet recognized their identities, but the netizens in Mu Li’s live stream had already entered a state of frenzy.
“Can anyone tell me if these two are Mu Qingqing and Fu Peiyao?”
“I’m going to die. Didn’t he say he was meeting a netizen? Mu Li’s netizens are Fu Peiyao and Mu Qingqing?”
“Wife!!!!”
“Am I dreaming? My two wives just appeared on camera?”
“Upstairs, let me splash some water on you.”
“No, can someone tell me, who exactly is Mu Li? Why does he know Fu Peiyao and Mu Qingqing?”
…
The news of Fu Peiyao and Mu Qingqing appearing in Mu Li’s live stream spread to Weibo in less than ten minutes, and another trending topic quickly formed.
Fu Peiyao had 80 million Weibo followers, and Mu Qingqing had 20 million followers. Together, they exceeded 100 million.
In just ten minutes, Mu Li’s live stream exploded again, with countless fans of Fu Peiyao and Mu Qingqing flooding into Mu Li’s live stream.
The staff of the “I Live Alone” production team went crazy again.
No, if you come once a day, how can we stand it?
The traffic for each Kuayin Live stream is actually limited. For live streams with many viewers, Kuayin allocates more servers to prevent lagging.
The “I Live Alone” live stream usually had a maximum traffic of ten thousand people, so Kuayin only allocated that much resources to the production team.
But when this insane amount of traffic poured in, Mu Li’s live stream was almost on the verge of collapse. This traffic growth rate was even faster than when Togekiss appeared a few days ago.
The director of the “I Live Alone” production team was Yan Yu, a variety show director in his thirties. His thirties were already a relatively stable age, but Yan Yu couldn't be stable at all at this moment, and the reason for all this was one person—Mu Li.
Initially, he invited Mu Li to participate in the show because he valued the traffic of Mu Li’s songs.
But unexpectedly, ever since Mu Li started live streaming, the popularity of the “I Live Alone” production team soared, subtly gaining the popularity of top-tier variety shows, but the popularity of those shows was real, accumulated with money.
However, the popularity of “I Live Alone” was created by Mu Li’s continuous troublemaking.
On the first day, before the live stream even started, he almost caused a filming accident. After the live stream began, he directly threw out a Togekiss, making the entire internet come to the live stream to make wishes.
On the second day, he went to Xu Yunyi’s home to study, attracting various schools and singers to attend his class. With his extraordinary Psychic control, he directly attracted most of the internet’s Pokémon “experts” to debunk him on Xu Yunyi’s Weibo.
On the third day, he invited Chichi, Zheng Yun, and Fan Yizhi, and the four of them had an explosive show effect.
On the fourth day, he directly invited Fu Peiyao, the hottest queen-level singer in China, and Mu Qingqing, a popular actress.
Yan Yu couldn't even imagine what Mu Li would do during the second recording to make the show content comparable to the first recording.
However, he clearly didn't have time to think about these things now, because Mu Li’s live stream was about to crash, and he was currently frantically calling Kuayin staff.
Meanwhile, the Kuayin staff were also bewildered, all working overtime urgently to maintain the stability of Mu Li’s live stream.
However, when it came to the degree of shock, no one was more shocked than Liu Yun.
She was now at a loss as to what to do, even almost forgetting the basic functions of an agent.
Who am I?
Where am I?
What am I going to do?
Liu Yun was completely bewildered.
Although she knew in advance that Mu Li was going to meet a female netizen, she didn't care, even overlooking Mu Li’s statement that the netizen he was meeting was someone from the entertainment industry.
But even if she had guessed the other party’s identity in every possible way, she wouldn't have dared to think of Fu Peiyao and Mu Qingqing.
Who were these two? One was a queen, and the other was a talented child star. The fans they had accumulated over the years, with one spit each, could drown Mu Li.
To be honest, she had handled many public relations crises caused by celebrity relationships over the years, but none of them had reached the achievement of Fu Peiyao!
Although Mu Li was meeting two female celebrities at the same time today, which could slightly alleviate the public opinion Mu Li would face, Liu Yun also knew how the online public opinion would ferment next.
Not to mention anything else, Mu Li’s fan base would definitely surge, but these fans would certainly also come to scold Mu Li.
If it were any other new singer, Liu Yun would probably have already issued a statement to distance herself, otherwise, not to mention the public opinion, just the new singer's mentality would probably be difficult to stabilize. However, this person was Mu Li.
Who is Mu Li?
Seven years ago, when he was just a middle school student, he faced the complaints and scold of the entire Chinese people alone, plus the pressure from so many Champion-level players around the world, yet he was still able to win a bronze medal for China.
With such a mentality, Liu Yun should be wondering if she herself would be able to withstand such immense public opinion pressure.
As for the insults and public opinion, they were nothing more than people thinking there was a huge status gap between Mu Li and Fu Peiyao, Mu Qingqing, and others, believing that Mu Li was not worthy of being friends with them, and that Mu Li was approaching them to gain resources.
These problems didn't even require Mu Li to explain; as soon as Mu Li’s identity was revealed, all problems would be solved.
So for Liu Yun, what she cared about now was not cyberbullying or public opinion at all. What she cared about was that there was clearly some gossip between Mu Li and Fu Peiyao!
What could be more exciting than being on the front lines of gossip?
If Mu Li wasn't meeting Fu Peiyao, she would have called him a long time ago.
However, this didn't prevent her from sharing the fun of gossiping with others.
Liu Yun directly opened her private chat with Wu Yao, forwarded Mu Li’s live stream, and also sent a screenshot of the trending topic— “Mu Li, Fu Peiyao, and Mu Qingqing are actually netizens?”
Wu Yao, who was waiting to film, was also bewildered at this moment.
What’s going on?
Why didn't I know that Second Brother also knew Fu Peiyao and Mu Qingqing?
Without any thought, Wu Yao directly forwarded the information Liu Yun sent him to the dorm group of four.
Li Yu: So you’re telling me now that two of the netizens Second Brother used to often play “Pokémon Glory” with are Mu Qingqing and Fu Peiyao?
Xu Ming: And the three of them are meeting in person now?
Wu Yao: I just saw the message my agent sent me. @ Mu Li
Li Yu: Forget Second Brother, can't we just watch the live stream directly?
Xu Ming: Watch live stream + 1.
Wu Yao: The director called me. Remember to record the live stream.
…
It must be said that this incident involving Fu Peiyao and Mu Qingqing almost stirred up the entire entertainment industry, having an even greater impact than the previous Togekiss incident.
Although Togekiss was an extremely rare Pokémon, for most netizens, other people’s Pokémon were, after all, other people’s, and had nothing to do with themselves.
But this time was different. The female protagonists of this incident were Fu Peiyao and Mu Qingqing! They were my internet wives!
The meaning was completely different.
Soon, this netizen meeting incident directly ignited the entire entertainment industry’s trending searches.
Wu Ha’s group chat had already started forwarding it frantically.
Wang Xiang: A Li is popular again.
Gao Hanyu: I saw it too. I’m about to collapse. When did A Li meet Fu Peiyao and Mu Qingqing?
Deng Fei: What happened?
Fan Yizhi: Go check the Weibo trending topics yourself. Even I, who don't use the internet, know about it.
Chichi: Everyone, hurry to the live stream to get the latest gossip.
Wang Xiang: Everyone, hurry to the live stream to get the latest gossip.
…
At this moment, Xu Yunyi, who was still at home enjoying the wonderful experience brought by the flowers, suddenly found his phone constantly vibrating.
After opening it, he found that both Weibo and the chat groups had exploded.
In Jiayu Company’s artist chat group, many artists who had good relationships with Xu Yunyi began to inquire about Mu Li.
Only then did Xu Yunyi realize what had happened.
The essence of human nature is gossip, and Xu Yunyi was no exception. He directly clicked into Mu Li’s live stream and entered gossip mode.
However, Mu Li, who was completely unaware of what was happening outside, was now a bit awkward. His mind was racing, trying to find a topic to break the current atmosphere.
