Another new release just in time for summer is Zhao Liying’s newest collab with her Golden Wedding director Zheng Xiaolong. Entitled The Story of Xing Fu 幸福到万家, the series is the TV adaptation of the novel The Story of Qiu Ju which has also been turned into a movie by famed director Zhang Yimou. The Story of Xing Fu is the second project the pair have worked on together which will hit the small screens today June 29.
As the titular He Xing Fu, Zhao Liying portrays a simple country girl forced to make her way into the city when things don’t go as planned after taking to court a new factory in town over their land. Life continues to throw her curveball after curveball challenging her career, her marriage, love and family. However, the diligent and brave Xing Fu works hard to overcome the odds against her. She returns to her hometown to affect positive changes in the lives of the villagers.
The Story of Xing Fu premieres June 29 on Beijing TV, Dragon TV and Youku. The series also stars Liu Wei, Tang Zeng, Luo Jin, Cao Zheng and Zhang Ke Ying.
A Countryside Girl at Heart
It seems the role of Xing Fu couldn’t be any more perfect for Zhao Liying who in a promotional interview for the show said so herself that she identifies much with her character. “Xing Fu is like an unpolished gem, she’s very real.” Like her character, Zhao Liying comes from humble stock, having been born into a family of farmers. Raised in a small village in the north of the country, the star mentioned more than once about how growing up poor in a rural area has only made her more resilient.
“I also grew up in the countryside, so I feel the character is very similar to when I was young.” She adds, “I also admire people like her who is very kind and warm and genuinely sincere towards the people around her”. Describing Xing Fu as someone who has her own ideas and her own way of thinking, the actress says she loves how Xing Fu dares to think differently and act differently whilst continuing to have a positive spirit.
Having a positive spirit certainly served the actress well, especially in the face of all the anti-fans who ridiculed her poor background. “What’s wrong with being born in a village?” she once commented. The actress also doesn’t shy away from talking about her upbringing and proudly mentioned in an interview once “I grew up in a village, and my ancestors were farmers. My family loves literature and art, but were never in the film and television industry. This experience of growing up in a village helped hone my will and tenacity. It made me tough. These experiences are what helped mould me into who I am today.”

Funny. The people from ZLY’s countryside do not like her and she also accused them of being greedy. She’s the countryside girl who’s spoiled and doesn’t even know how to cook basic dishes like eggs and noodles LMAO.
Bratty
Although she’s from the countryside, I feel she is very spoiled.
Not required to do well in school, or cook, and learn basic etiquettes. After getting famous, she’s even more privileged to ignore them.
Literature is required for actors so they can practice scripts. Although she doesn’t want to make any further improvements in literature, she is old already and should learn more etiquettes. When she comes off impolite, she should acknowledge more and apologize more.
It’s very rude the way she acted in The Chinese Restaurant, refused to apologize like a spoiled brat and blamed the whole production. The industry is very afraid of her, after having done that, swearing to never return to that show, still actually made a return without issue in the next season. It’s obvious she has the most excellent connections.
Anonymous
Doesn’t shy from her background? Wow!
She lied at the beginning of her career saying “a city girl like me…” and that she met her first love from university to make it sound like she was a city girl who went to college.
Nobody made fun or despise her, they were only questioning why she lied.
She could have cried pitifully and say she had no choice but to lie. Instead, she cries and accuses everyone of hating her background.
Sounds very Trashta, she will be able to play that role really well.
Roles that require a human brain is too hard for her, she tries hard to copy how Sun Li acted in Nothing Gold Can Stay, so unnatural and cringey.
Anon
Normally not a fan of urban cdramas but just becos this is ZLY’s transformation drama, giving it a shot. Had just finished watching the first 2 epis and surprisingly got drawn and hooked, hopefully this will continue to the end.
ZLY’s eyes can truly portray the stubbornness that is needed of her character…just perfect.
Anon
Sorry to say the truth, her eyes wonders all over the place, here and there as if she’s posing on red carpet for many cameras. Her acting doesn’t align with the women of that time period, it’s very unprofessional. When someone was doing a speech she was in the background making all these faces and humping a little, reserved women during that time will only listen attentively. Is this novel supposed to be about a time traveler? This is another “transformation” drama like The Story of Minglan that she isn’t fit to play, but of course fans will pretend to say her acting is top notch. Next time, please get a professional actress.
lenje
She got a Magnolia Awards’ Best Actress nomination for Story of Ming Lan. Magnolia is one of the most prestigious awards together with Feitian for television series. The recognition isn’t given by fans, but by the industry.
Anon
@Lenje
Magnolia is only prestigious by name but nobody is convinced how the judges have qualifications. ZLY was also shortlisted for JTOF, which her acting was irritating and annoying. Many people questioned it. YZ’s fans also questioned how her character Jinmi from AOL not shortlisted when ZLY got shortlisted for something nasty like Hua Qiangu. Although many people said they are annoyed by Jinmi, it is still alot better than Hua Qiangu. In the next round, ZLY got shortlisted again for TSOM but her acting was the weakest out of everyone in the show. Most of the judges haven’t even watch TSOM too, it is unfair that they pick it just because there are lots of bought fans. ZLY is not easy to offend in the industry, they’re just picking those who they can curry with.
Anon
I looked at the first episode, it’s ok and quality is high but ZLY’s acting is so bad.
So unrealistic how 2 big men cannot break through the door and requires her to kick it with heels. If they’re afraid of the thugs then they wouldn’t help ZLY when she breaks in. They’re giving her that unrealistic halo. The sister is a much more professional and talented, I think ZLY will target her with something bad like what happened to Wang Ziwei and Han Ye last time.
Eagle Eye
That r*pe scene was too extreme and scary. They lost the realistic momentum the second FL arrives. She acts like it’s an easy peasy job to come clear things out. Nothing hard for her, it’s easy to be the sudden hero coming to rescue, and the baddies aren’t even going to fight back, how simple. It’s hardest for the actress doing that r*pe scene, her acting indeed surpassed the lead.
Anon
LOL she came right in as if it’s a normal routine, not surprised and not panicked a bit. Looks like she practiced what to do many times but didn’t give any thoughts in how to act.
No matter what, she’s not simple.
15 years ago she couldn’t act so Zheng Xiaolong only gave her a small role.
15 years after, she still couldn’t act. Zheng Xiaolong gave her a lead role this time because she has too many fans anticipating her TRANSFORMATION.
She can save him tons of money if she markets the product like usual, It’s worth overpaying her, she will give back to the production. This plot is obviously tailored after her constant personal branding.
At one point he gave up midway and wanted to go work on something new. After receiving too many scary threats he came back to work with her.
With fans that scary, this drama is bounded to be another successful “master piece” like TSOM. Not simple!
Even without airing this is already a guaranteed epic.
Amy
what happened to Wang Ziwei and Han Ye? who are these people? sorry, kind of new to cdramas.
Min
Wang Ziwei and Han Ye are nobodies!
They starred in Minglan with ZLY, they were only maids.
But most of the audiences like their acting more and they received more praises than ZLY who was the lead.
I’m surprised ZLY’s agency will target those 2 nobodies right after her divorce. ZLY was on set with FSF during Minglan, If FSF cheated on set with WZY and HY during minglan, ZLY should see that going on. The director admitted witnessing ZLY and FSF dating on set, if FSF was 3 timing then how come nobody said anything until there was a divorce? Those 2 didn’t get pregnant, ZLY was the only one ending up pregnant by who nobody knows but FSF took responsibilities.
FSF was never confirmed to date anyone else other than Ni Ni. His biggest scandal was with Jelly Lin, but the photo of them dining was very very polite and well mannered. I wouldn’t even count Jelly Lin as an ex bc there’s just not enough evidence. Compare to the evidence ZLY went honeymoon with a married CEO from the US, he isn’t even counted as her ex and her dating record is still advertised as clean as shit. Why should a polite dinner be such a big deal when it comes to FSF?
You can search up in google by typing “Zhao Liying divorced the four actresses who lay guns and turned into little three”. Little three means b**** in Chinese. The 4 actresses accused of sleeping with FSF was WZW and HY as mentioned above, following Gulinazha and Zhang Huiwen. Gulinazha and ZLY had problems together since back then when GLNZ didn’t wish her happy birthday on SM and gets labeled being a hater thinking she’s prettier than ZLY. Zhang Huiwen is the junior from ZLY’s own studio she should be looking after, but ZLY also dragged Zhang Huiwen down during Legend of Fei through a Hamburger SM post. There are way many more actresses FSF gets slandered of sleeping with, basically all actresses he worked in the past slept with him. Not something he was known for when dating neither Ni Ni nor Jelly Lin, these malicious lies only surfaced after he got together with ZLY.
Anti water army
Oh lord, she still wants to advertise her countryside background? That’s no longer needed.
People from her very own hometown hates her.
Residents of the village they did the shooting for Xingfu also hate her.
They were caught being angry on cams and she also gave them a dirty look back. They are poor but the production used their places without any:
-Notice
-Permission
-Compensation
Those villagers even have to bear the noises caused from filming and sharing their own spaces without complaining. Since they are so looked down on, then don’t use them to promote yourself.
——-
Advertising being hard working should also be eliminated.
This Xingfu character does not do a thing that is dangerous.
ZLY is again caught using doubles.
One time, in a yellow dress crossing the street.
Another time, in a white dress in the street again.
I’m sure there are many more.
Just how dangerous is it to stand up and walk across the street?
If she’s lazy to this extent, she’s going to sell her face for a high price and just Aritificial Intelligence (AI) her face into professionals that can act right? She copied someone else’s face though, wonder if she can sell her face.
———
The advertisement of her being resilient and nice should also stop already.
She’s known for her unapologetic behaviors. For so many years, she can only rely on fans being nasty to other artist and push them down so she can climb up with the best acting status.
But when the gov banned her studio, she did not make any apology saying she will rectify her fans going onwards. Instead, she backstabbed her fans that it was their behaviors that made her pay the price so she should not be in trouble but them. Sounds wonderful to buy your own fans so you can mistreat them however you like, and they won’t walk away. Wondering how much I can get paid to be a fan, even if verbally abused I just need the money.
Compare to Xiao Zhan when the case of 227 occurred he was still new, his fans were not around for more than 2-4 years. It might not even be his fans involved, but he still made the apology to everyone. That’s a better example of resiliency. When and where was ZLY ever resilient? She didn’t apologize even when the gov demanded it, they let her pass through. Even when she bad mouthed other actresses, she never apologizes to them but continues holding grudges at them.
She actually attempted to bring her baby with her on set everywhere so she won’t get called a bad mother who doesn’t visit, if not thanks to the netizens rational mind and great kindness opposing such behaviors, she would done it already. On set environment is nowhere for a young child. After making that mistake, she shifted the blame to FSF fake infidelities and his mother.
If that is called resilience and humane, I don’t know what resilience means anymore. Does she know how to spell resilience? She does not like to improve on anything as long as she has money to buy mouths that speak great things about her. She doesn’t even bother to learn how to spell “Lan” which is one of the most basic Chinese characters and the name of her very own character “Ming Lan”, I wonder if she can even read scripts or if she couldn’t at all that’s why she often forgets her lines. Hardest working? Best at acting? Most resilient? How fake, money is speaking. Not good at anything but money can just make things happen magically. Not acting most of the time, most scenes are only done by doubles and second leads, but she still walks away eating off all the budget to herself. It’s not enough that the second leads worked harder but they also get accusations of all sorts, ranging from bribing directors for more scenes and having affairs with all her exes (when she was already ALSO on set with those exes, and had her own multiple dating scandals flying around at the same time).
Even Stephen Chow cannot get excused for his harsh, mean, and stingy personality. He doesn’t even advertise his poor life either, or lie about being a nice person when he knows he isn’t. For someone with no talent but also bad attitude, completely reliant on fans but still backstab them and curse them to have stomache ache, and she gets excused from things others can’t. Still gets called nice and resilient all the time when she’s not. Unbelievable!
Dramapanda and Jayne are really nice when it comes to ZLY, truthfully we don’t see these positiveness when it’s others. Anyone else get blame for crimes they haven’t even commit and there isn’t even any evidence.

I bet that was the fan Coralie last time hating on LYF.
Real Anti Water Army
It’s got to be! In that thread, Coralie hated LYF to death and insisted LYF having no acting skills and also looking super ugly.
A user wrote under a name like “ZLY’s minion” revealing Coralie working under ZLY and attacking actresses that are more talented than her. Coralie replies back as “ZLY’s real minion.”
Now somebody is stealing “Real Anti water army”, it’s got to be Coralie again.

Just curious, who is @Coralie? Why is she named here?

Looks like that’s your other twin or besty from Jaynestars, and we look forward to Jayne writing something really NICE and CLEAN about zly there.
Last time A Dream of Splendor got lots of hate and Coralie said bad stuff about LYF, a username stealing technique was used there and reappearing here so it’s obviously the same person.

Why does her hometown hate her?
Anon
Her hometown doesn’t like her because of a fake donation.
Nobody knows who built a road in her hometown. There was a rumor that an elderly person trip on the road bc it was bumpy and bad, a young man helped the elderly get up and he decided he will fix the road. That man was a head/gov’t of the village.
At the same time, ZLY was AWARDED as ambassador of her hometown. Such an award can only come through the gov’t, not many people can get it, the first one was only Hu Ge and ZLY wanted to be that second person. So this made the villagers believe she built the road for them. Some villagers said they wished she made the road better bc she is so rich and the fix was not even that good. I have to agree, it looks like they only swept the road a little so it’s no longer bumpy and that was it. That might be bc whoever fixed it for real (not ZLY) did not have much money.
ZLY made no reply to this matter at all. Netz cursed the villagers greedy and evil for months, but ZLY as an ambassador did nothing about it. Making netz believe even more that she built the road, she was an angel and the villagers was too ungrateful.
Then after some time, nobody remembers this problem anymore, she came out to say she didn’t build it. This made the netz lose lots of face.
But fixing public road has to involve gov’t too, if she built it she must have some relationships with the gov, if she didn’t build it then it would be an offense to take over their credentials. It was a matter that she should have replied on it asap but never did. This made people still believe she built the road, otherwise the gov’t would been angry at her already. Her ambassador role is also not affected or revoked.
But lately, it looks like the gov’t actually greatly favors her. Even Jing Tian who is rumored to have a CCP boyfriend got fined and forced to apologize for some advertising some products with unproven research. ZLY also did the same with a bird nest product for a long time, claiming to eat that product every day for health benefits, she was not fined or asked to apologize. This is very questionable. The gov’t put censorships on dramas and disallow anything related to rebelling against the gov’t. I guess we will see if Xingfu fights against the gov’t and it went uncensored.
Be Happy
I like this drama so far. Clearly haters gonna hate.
Anon
Reading all the comments makes me wonder how powerful is ZLY or the person backing ZLY? China is a patriarchal country & I guess only the most powerful person in the country can make a man to admit a child that wasn’t his as his.
Anon
I don’t see how it’s a crime to give birth but Zhang Bichen (ZLY’s friend) had to reveal and apologize for giving birth, bc she did it in secret. With ZLY though… not required to explain anything about all the odd things happening during pregnancy to giving birth. Shrugs…
Lol
Fsf is prolly too nice and trusting so he got trapped. Initially he believed it was his child it’s why he signed the marriage papers. Some insiders from fashion department revealed the blood didn’t match, if that’s true then he can’t do nothing about it cause he found out too late. Nobody wants to embarrass himself being a green hat. He can fight but not like anybody will be on his side, 200 billion users said he has a playboy image. Who can fight against a number that exceed humans actual population?
Rheana
She has tight connections. I still remember a time her driver overspeed, so she won’t be late to a show. The police stopped them and everyone in the van must come out. She strongly refused and it pissed off the police. She only gave her ID to a staff to pass to the police, when they saw the ID they got so angry they said they don’t even know her, implying she’s not even famous. The police angrily said everyone has to follow the law. Celebs are not exempt. Her father is a police she should know better. Years later, Wu Jing chose her to do a type of police ads that the government put strict restrictions for celebs with clean records to shoot only. She still gets a passing to shoot the ads, earning her full trust from citizens.
Anon
How disgusting and unfair is it that ZLY’s team is using YM and WDX’s scandal to market this drama. Are they so desperate for heat?
WTH
That is very low of ZLY. I wouldn’t think the same name “Da Xun” being used in this drama was for any other purpose but coincidently just a same name as Wei Da Xun. Until they actually tagged YM on it to get on hot search, it becomes obvious they used the name Da Xun with ill intentions.
YM once had a scandal of being raped after getting drunk, and it was recorded. The woman in it resembled YM but her body has moles that YM does not have, YM had to deal with it. The most disgusting thing was nobody even care to have any sympathy for the victim but only interested in insinuating that the woman was YM.
I’m quite convinced they’re trying to make Xingfu’s sister act as if she’s YM! Are these really coincidence?
WTH
Now I know why Zheng Xiaolong ran into an extramarital affair scandal with ZLY, he writes these types of scripts for ZLY to get back at people she hates.
If YM was ever raped for real, does she not deserve sympathy for such a cruel thing?
Anon
Such an insignificant line as “how are you and Da Xun” enters hot search it’s obviously to rub off of YM’s popularity. Later on if ZLY is accused of living in YM’s shadows some people will dare to say it’s unjustified.
Anon
Zly is famous for copying everything Ym does which earns her the titular Trashta.
So far:
* the sis got raped and filmed
* the sis broke up with Da xun
Whats next:
* the sis will become jealous of Xingfu
* the sis will COPY Xingfu
YAWN! Ok ok, what a waste of the actress’s talent who played as the sister.
Anon
The funny thing is that the title of the hot search isn’t “Zhao liying/Xing Fu asks how are you and da xun”. How embarrassing, as if the character Da Xun is more popular than wei da xun who was rumored to have an affair with YM.
Nonny
Christ people. I’m not her fan nor do I think she’s that great an actress. In Minglan, for being the FL, I’d say she was overshadowed by the rest of the cast. Having said that, give it a rest people. Those essays on top? I’m embarrassed for you. Go outside and touch some grass. No need to dedicate you life to someone you hate.
Wondering
There isn’t anything off topic though, the production and actress sound wrong to mistreat villagers then use villagers as a tactic to win viewers admiration.

I don’t know why people always act like it’s fair for ZLY to do these things. Whoever that actress playing the sister is, she’s definitely following WZW and HY’s footsteps. ZLY will never let the supporters perform better, if they do they will run into something bad. I wonder if she knows at all, her character was only made to despise YM and replay all of YM’s past scandals. The recorded r*pe and break up with WDX, both are accidentals? Really convincing. Please hire this person who never touch grass too.

I don’t care about ranking, maybe it’s not #1 or -1 right now, but it will be very soon. This is ZLY ROTFL, who can beat ZLY? She’s not one who will take 2nd place and below, it can only be 1.
I can give her a 0 since that’s above 1.

This type of scripting has to be made through ZLY and Zheng Xiaolong together. So her team is not involved, they’re just following orders.
Mystery solved: FSF divorced ZLY during the shooting of this drama.
There was some photos of ZLY and ZXL in a room, and there was a bed in the background. Don’t know how reliable that source was, but definitely looks more legit than the laughable FSF’s text messages with Liu Yifei’s clones.
The picture doesn’t show her face but it was the same exact clothes (nobody else own) she worn with FSF. Her famous A4 waist got caught in the photo. The source claimed they recovered the photo from FSF’s stolen laptop. Don’t know for sure if the rumor was true but what we know for sure, he divorced her after that. It’s just surprising FSF doesn’t attack her the way she attacks him. Looks like every time she “transform” there is a man behind it. From Gao Ziqi to Chen Xiao, Yu Zheng, Nicky Wu, Hu Bin, Kris Wu, FSF, ZXL, etc.

Queen of water army: 200 billion views and no box office value 😆 unfortunately the box office has no water
Queen of malicious marketing: ZLY could not carry this drama’s popularity, they had to use YM and WDX.
Queen of green tea: most hardworking actress that works 300 days a year yet uses body doubles for everything.
This number one spots are undisputed for ZLY.

Right? I would expect to see 200 billion people show up, but nobody even buys a ticket. Monkey King was a huge huge flop, they couldn’t recover 2 million back. The investor mustve hated her for lying.

Of course the first thing out of your mouths is accusing me of being paid lol. Like I said I have no horse in this race (not ZLY fan nor fan of anyone in this drama production, has no plans to watch said drama). As a casual drama fan, all I see every time an article about her is posted is the inundation of “Anons” posting the most ridiculous and convoluted conspiracies about this woman. Even in articles not about her but her competitors, this woman’s supposed dirty laundry gets aired. Ya’ll cry about her paid water army but all I see is her anti army loud and outspoken. If her water army is strong on like Weibo or other Chinese sites, you anti’s being vocal on an English site is like a moot point. But you can waste your time and energy however you like.
Like I said, I don’t care about her. All I know is whenever an article about her gets posted, the comment section would be wild.
Peace.

The first hot search was “How are you and Da Xun”
The second hot search “Da Xun scumbag”
None of the titles carry Zhao liying/Xingfu’s name, the title of the drama or even the
surname of the so called Da Xun character. With this heat the hot search has over 300 million readings from fan wars and discussions on the teams original intentions, no one is talking about the actual drama. Yet they are unapologetically celebrating topping Maoyan’s popularity index. I have never seen a realistic themed drama backed with big names like Zheng Xiaolong and the supporting cast use this kind of tactic or any kind of tactic for popularity. Wasn’t this drama supposed to broadcast on its own strength?
Anonymous
I think the character Da Xun didn’t even show up in the show and he has more hot searches than ZLY herself. How is that not done on purpose?
Lollol
@dramapanda you guys should hire this person. It takes lots of work and dedication to go on every article to write such long essays. At least pay her! She is working so hard! Probably loosing sleep lol. Ahhahahahahahahhahahahaha keep on going. Keep on going my friend! Jai you!

When I saw a whole article dedicated to her, I was like can’t wait to see what that comment section is like. Her anti-fans never disappoint. Though the writing is a bit of a slough. I tried reading it but my eyes just automatically rolled to the back of my head. I have no patience for all that convoluted nonsense.

It’s not all true, thankfully we all have the capacity to think, but it’s not all a lie.
LOLOL
There are 2 dramas grossly overhyped by international reviewers like AvenueX and Marcus Sim in the past years. On other platforms like Avirtualvoyage, Kappy used to be an active reviewer and had the same taste.
1. Legend of Zhen Huan
2. Nirvana in Fire
It’s all coincident.
Interestingly, ZLY happens to be all 3 of their #1 favorite idol. And YM happens to be someone they detest.
It’s all coincident.
After Zheng Xiaolong (directed Zhen Huan) and Daylight Production (produced NIF), they become very unshakeable in business.
Then, ZLY finally work for them. First, it’s Daylight (Minglan) and second, it’s Zheng Xiaolong (Xingfu).
Doesn’t matter how ZLY performed, her transformation is going very smoothly with such 2 well-reputed big names.
It’s all coincident.
Both international and local Chinese reviewers also have nothing but praises for her, and her news are very well controlled, she maintained the best reputation and ranking in dramaland for a decade.
She might be smarter than y’all think, maybe she planned everything ahead.
ZLY aims very high and wants to get international like LYF so she cares about international fans.
Unlike YM who only cares about her success within China locally, as long as she builds everything from ground up instead of depending on men, she’s content. Jaywalk was built by her from scratch, with 2 other women owning most of the percentages and hers the smallest. For ZLY, she’s very competitive, no colleagues can be seen as friends but competitors. Unless they have a special use like Sina and He Jiong that can protect her on variety shows. If she wants to own a percentage of companies, it’s got to be done through men, an example is big daddy Nicky Wu giving her a share of Strawbear agency. Don’t you guys realize how hard it is to build things from scratch? Will people praise you if you make your own company? No, they will call you hungry for money. If you take free money from men though, there SHOULD be 200 billion people being supportive of that. 200 billion is a huge number but if 200 billion people disappeared on you LOL, you suck!
Joker
Wait, so the ZLY fans here accusing haters here of lying, where are your proofs at?
If anyone google search on ZLY, all you read about is candies and rainbows.
But when these haters google search on their idols, they saw these things:
Zhao Lusi – “Finally stop being a ZLY copycat after seeing Crystal Yuan getting nowhere, now moves to Korean style”
Crystal Yuan – “ZLY copycat, couldn’t get famous until copying ZLY”
Yang Mi – “Look down on ZLY, made everyone ignores ZLY”
(untrue, no such thing in any of the footages. ZLY even has a team editing stuff and pieced them together to create fake news.)
Liu Yifei – “Fairy sister is fat, ZLY is prettier”
(this did not happen to LYF when she stood next to ABB and YM who are also slimer than LYF)
Yang Zi – “Yang Zi has fat face next to ZLY, it’s why nobody wants to take photo next to ZLY”
(not true. ZLY always hid behind so the pple closer to the camera appear bigger. Everyone knew this, even the cameramen, it became a joke and every time everyone joke, they know ZLY started it.)
Chen Xiao & wife – “Chen Xiao cheated ZLY. Michelle Chen is the 3rd party”
(not true. CX did have some dating rumors with ZLY close to the same time of dating MC, but he admitted liking ZLY publicly many times already, and it was her who always rejected every time. At the same time, she had a scandal honeymooning with a CEO from USA who she claimed to be a friend only but he still appeared on set during Qing Yun Zhi. Then she also carries matching items with William Chan and caused Charlene Choi to dump William Chan. These made CX moved on and get married, but when he gets married ZLY purposedly said she got “cheated on” so to ruin CX’s marriage at the right timing.)
Of course people can only point out the truth that ZLY’s team is behind all these hate.
Since ZLY’s team will never publish anything truthful other than (fake) innocent stuff.
If the haters here are lying then just provide your proof. Convince everyone how the hate articles on all the other actresses are not coming from ZLY’s marketing team.
