It’s been four years since Yang Zi and Qin Junjie announced their breakup in 2018. However, speculation about them were reignited due to paparazzi photos of the two eating at the same restaurant in Hengdian.
Entertainment blogger “Melon-eating Girl Zhang Xiaohan” revealed that the two were photographed on May 7 entering a restaurant one ofter the other. According to their reports, Qin Junjie left first at around 10:30 p.m. then Yang Zi left with two other women thirty minutes later. Both actors are in Hengdian because Yang Zi is currently filming her drama Lost You Forever (长相思) while Qin Junjie is filming his new drama Heroes (天行健).

According to Sina Entertainment, Yang Zi has denied rumors that she had dinner with Qin Junjie. In a response through her staff, she said, “No truth to this, just dinner with other friends.” The same day, Qin Junjie’s new drama Heroes was also announced which immediately drew flak due to the timing of it coinciding with the rumors.
Qin Junjie took to social media to deny any involvement, “I didn’t find the paparazzi! You can scold me, but don’t scold the drama! Also, what was filmed was pure nonsense!” Meanwhile, Qin Junjie’s studio also issued a statement saying they initially had no intention to occupy public resources; however, they can no longer tolerate those secretly taking photos, creating rumors and maliciously interpreting and disseminating them. Hence, they have entrusted matters to their lawyers.

paparazzi they have good eyes!! lol. That is them, but nobody knows if they eat together or not lol.

Qin Junjie career did get affected by their breakup… the dramas he starred in are not doing very well… I am not saying he is responsible for the Paz… but it does not surprised me there are speculations/rumours he may have a hand.
Lala
What happened? Did he cheat?
HL- Hoh Liu
Both did not air their laundry in public… so we do not know for certain.
Bobobo
He may have hand as in? You think its possible he tipped the papz?
HL- Hoh Liu
Anything is possible but with no evidences, such rumours and speculation is just hearsay… I really cannot be bothered about them having dinner together… It is better to stay as friends then enemies…
Laila
Well, even if they did eat together, what harm is that? I honestly don’t think their’s anything wrong if they got a late dinner together for something, or even in the same area/frame. We don’t know how the story behind their breakup. It could be a mutual one where both still have good feelings toward one another in a friendly/acquaintance way. Whether it was “planned” by him or not, it’s whatever. Paps and people just need to let them be.
Yiyi
Why do people think that he is the one who hired the paparazzi anyway? If anyone did it, it would be Yang Zi. She pulled the same stunt with Wang Junkai in 2019 after all.

Yang Zi no necesita eso ella es super famosa, solo con saber que hay un drama con ella todos estan atentos
Yiyi
Yang Zi did not do this for hot search. Noticed how this incident only affected Qin Junjie but not Yang Zi. She did this to hurt him, so that he could not promote his drama. Mind you, she did this all the time, not only with Qin Junjie. I have already given Wang Junkai as an example.
HL- Hoh Liu
@Yiyi, lol…we know who you dislike.
Yiyi
So? I don’t like any of the celebrities that I mentioned in the comments. And why is it wrong for me to dislike certain celebrities, but it is fine for you and others? Double-standard much?
Laila
There’s nothing wrong with disliking someone but when you go to this extent to frame someone for something you have no evidence of, it says otherwise. Go touch some grass.
HL- Hoh Liu
I second that..

Idk much about them personally but I will give him the benefit of the doubts as I know he has been working hard for years as second male lead, and he’s still working hard (good on him), so I don’t think he need to pull those sort of stuns. Whereas for YZ, a star needs to be hot all the time, so it’s not surprising if she did pull the stun either. All in all, I wish ppl just leave them be, he seems to be a private kind of person who just want to do this role.
Applefish
*his role
Yiyi
“he has been working hard for years as second male lead, and he’s still working hard” that might be why she’s targeting him now. He was supposed to promote his new drama on that day, when suddenly the paparazzi released the news, and now he can’t promote it anymore.
Poor guy. Being entangled with Yang Zi is never good a thing. She’s really petty (and vicious).
TaTa
Any proof? Or is this just conjecture because you dislike the actress?
Mind you, I don’t really care for her either, but I grow weary of comments like these stated as facts, when it is merely speculation.
Yiyi
What conjecture? Isn’t it odd that the paparazzi release the news on the day Qin Junjie was supposed to promote his new drama? And that he was the only one who got attacked by C-netz while Yang Zi didn’t?
What is it with this weariness excuse. Because you dislike the actor?
TaTa
Nah!
On the contrary, I love Qin Junjie while I merely tolerate Yang Zi, and I seriously dislike her acting in most dramas. But I have noticed, on this blog in particular, that commenters who dislike a particular actor/actress tend to state a lot of negative things about them as fact, when it is merely one’s opinions of events. The fact is, no one here really knows if either one of them called the media to photograph them going into and out of the restaurant to eat. Maybe it could have been a paparazzi on a lucky break that scored some pictures that day. On the other hand it may be true that either party called reporters. My point is that since no one on this blog was physically present at the scene nor possesses inside knowledge, just be cognizant to state your opinions as opinions, not as facts. Less discerning minds could easily believe these negative comments on an entertainer, and said entertainer could be completely innocent of such claims. That is why I am weary.
In any case, in entertainment there is no such thing as bad publicity. Now I know that Qin Junjie has some new work out, I plan to watch it, if I can find English subs. Without this controversy, I probably wouldn’t have heard of or paid any attention to his new drama. I’m glad that this benefits him in some way (my opinion).

Who is to say that QJJ may have not paid the paps to come out instead? A lot of companies do dirty business regardless of the actors/actress’s reputation. That’s how they make sure they stay on the news too or have some sort of news. It’s called a publicity stunt. QJJ worked hard, yes, but who is also to say that YZ didn’t work hard also? I’m a fan of both, so I see that both have worked hard to get to where they are despite what the media or the general public says or portrays them as.
Applefish
QJJ has always been a quiet guy though. From the start of his career until now, he has been mostly quiet, the only time when he’s on main stream media is when it concerns YZ. So no, I don’t think it’s from him at all. At least, atm, if you ask me to pick a side (if one side must be the one who called the pap, instead of a lucky pap), then I would pick his over hers. She’s literally on the news every day with different actor 🙄 so her PR machine is working a lot harder than his.
Laila
Valid reason. I’ll give you that. lol
Peace Joy
Dont say that you don’t know the story behind.
Jc
If they dont want gossip, eat at home. They know there will be Paz everywhere! Obviously they came out to get gossip.
