Men are envious of "Master Wei" who has seven beautiful wives, and women all like the infatuated and unrepentant "Yang Daxia" with a broken arm. It can be said that Jin Yong, one of the "Four Great Talents in Hong Kong", has created many well-known martial arts novels. However, such a rare talent in the world has a rough relationship experience. He has experienced three marriages in his life.

The hero Jin Yong, who wrote about the love and hatred between men and women in the world, has always been secretive about his love and marriage. His marriages broke up twice and his beloved son committed suicide in the United States, all of which he had to endure.

In 1947, Jin Yong was just a staff member of a small newspaper. When he was still working in a newspaper, he went to a friend's house as a guest and met his wife Du Zhifen.

In his youth, Jin Yong always cherished the ideal of being a diplomat. However, the current situation was turbulent and it was not easy to develop in his official career. In 1948, Jin Yong applied for the position of international telecommunications editor at Ta Kung Pao. On the eve of Jin Yong being sent south to Hong Kong by the government, he rushed to Hangzhou and formally proposed marriage to the Du family. Du Zhifen was young and beautiful at the time, and the two fell in love and got married soon after. After getting married, Jin Yong took his wife to Hong Kong.

At that time, Jin Yong loved his wife very much. In order to prevent his wife from suffering with him, he worked hard. The heavy work not only failed to improve their embarrassing life, but also forced Jin Yong to go home less and less often, and each time he went home late at night.

The beautiful Du Zhifen stayed alone in her boudoir for a long time. Finally, she couldn't bear the loneliness and loneliness, so she decided to return to mainland China alone. Shortly after she returned, the two ended their marriage.

After the divorce, Jin Yong worked even harder. He wanted to use work to forget the pain caused by his relationship. However, every late night, he often thinks of the sweet past with his ex-wife. This lost sweetness stung his heart deeply and made him spend sleepless nights.

Just when Jin Yong was sad, he met his second wife Zhu Mei.

At that time, Jin Yong and Zhu Mei were working in a newspaper. Zhu Mei couldn't bear to see Jin Yong being confused every day, so she told Jin Yong about interesting foreign experiences every day. They fell in love over time, and the two soon got together.

After marriage, Zhu Mei and Jin Yong founded Ming Pao together. In the early days of founding the newspaper, due to lack of manpower, Zhu Mei took the initiative to work as a reporter. She also walked a long way to deliver meals to Jin Yong every day because she was afraid that Jin Yong's body would collapse. Since then, they have spent a wonderful time together.

It is said that men become bad when they have money, and Jin Yong is no exception. Just when "Ming Pao" became a household name, their relationship also came to an end.

When they reached middle age, they painfully discovered that they had fewer and fewer words in common, and the intimacy and friendship in their early years evolved into the indifference and wariness they have today. As a result, the rift in the marriage became wider and wider. Jin Yong did not want this marriage that had gone through many tests to end. He tried his best to remedy it. However, life did not continue according to his subjective wishes. In the end, he failed.

Jin Yong became a well-known local figure because of "Ming Pao", and his vanity became more and more inflated. Zhu Mei is a strong woman who likes to restrain Jin Yong in all aspects of life, which makes Jin Yong feel that he does not get the respect he deserves. As a result, Jin Yong made a mistake that almost all men make. He cheated on his wife during marriage. At this point, his second marriage also ended.

What could make Jin Yong give up the wife with whom he had been so contented was his cheating partner, her third wife Lin Leyi .

Jin Yong met his third wife in a bar.

At that time, Jin Yong was suffering from back pain due to the death of his son. He was drinking alone in a corner to relieve his sorrow. He happened to be seen by Lin Leyi, who was working part-time as a waiter in a bar. At that time, Lin Leyi, who was a fan of Jin Yong, recognized his identity at a glance.

Lin Leyi walked up to him with excitement.

She talked about her favorite characters in Jin Yong's works, her admiration for Jin Yong, and advised him to drink less and be sad.Jin Yong was very pleased to hear that his work was so popular. He feels that he cannot disappoint those who like his works, and he wants to bring more and better works to readers.

Jin Yong regained his composure and told this strange girl about his pain. Lin Leyi kept comforting him beside him, and Jin Yong was very moved. The two people, who were 29 years apart, became friends who talked about everything from that day on.

Not long after the two met, Jin Yong fell ill and was hospitalized due to fatigue. Lin Leyi rushed to the hospital to take care of him immediately. Later, the unusual relationship between them attracted Zhu Mei's attention, but Zhu Mei knew that her relationship with Jin Yong had serious problems, so she allowed their relationship to develop.

Soon after Jin Yong recovered from his illness, Lin Leyi felt that she should not stay any longer, so she said goodbye to him.

However, after taking care of her during this period, Jin Yong felt that he could not live without her more and more, so he begged her to stay. When Lin Leyi saw that Jin Yong loved her so much, she stopped hiding her feelings and agreed to stay with Jin Yong for the rest of her life.

Afterwards, Jin Yong filed for divorce from Zhu Mei and told Zhu Mei that he wanted to marry Lin Leyi.

Seeing that there was no room for redemption in her relationship with Jin Yong, Zhu Mei made two demands:

First, Jin Yong needed to pay herself a sum of money after the divorce, which would allow her to spend the rest of her life in peace.

The second is that Jin Yong can no longer have children after getting married and treats their children wholeheartedly.

Jin Yong agreed to Zhu Mei's two requests. He felt that this was compensation for Zhu Mei sharing the joys and sorrows with him. Jin Yong once said with shame: I am sorry for Zhu Mei, I was not successful as a husband, and I feel sorry for her in my heart!

After the divorce, Zhu Mei spent the rest of her life alone and never remarried until her death. Maybe it was because she no longer believed in love. After Jin Yong's divorce, he immediately held a wedding with Lin Leyi. Because the preparations for the wedding were too hasty, there was only a simple marriage oath.

After getting married, the two never had children of their own, which means that Jin Yong did not violate his agreement with his ex-wife. Later, Jin Yong and Lin Leyi participated in activities together and attended various banquets together. They were inseparable and very affectionate.

At this point, Jin Yong's relationship has stabilized. It can be said that having a young wife by his side is also a pleasure for him in his later years. It can be said that Jin Yong, who was brilliant and proud in the literary world, was rich in emotions but also suffered unspeakable pain. He once lamented helplessly: "My views on love have not changed since I was young. The ideal thing is to fall in love at first sight, get married, and then continue to love each other. Unfortunately, this can only be an ideal.
