A few days ago, the news that Zhang Jiani’s husband bought over and stayed in a hotel overnight with a female college student caused a stir on the Internet.
No matter how active and affectionate you are in the past, it seems that you can't hold a restless heart.
And the vow that Maichao said, "Only widowed, no divorce" , has now become a satire on their love.
are no different.
In November six years ago, athlete Lin Dan also staged a "ironic passion play" in a hotel about his love at first sight for Xie Xingfang.
Holding hands with young model Zhao Yaqi during the day, without wearing a hat or mask, the two bodies are close to each other throughout the whole process, "showing affection" without any scruples;
dragging her into the hotel at night, without even having time to close the curtains, they start a passionate "interaction" - hugging the waist, touching the buttocks, bumping the crotch, super "cannot wait".
Xie Xingfang, who fell in love with Lin Dan at first sight, is waiting for delivery in the hospital.
After finally giving birth to her son, she had to work non-stop to sort out her mood and speak out for this man who "dare to take responsibility".
The understanding of his wife Xie Xingfang allowed her husband Lin Dan to return to the family unscathed, but
could not stop the " super Dan " who dominated the badminton world. He was defeated by the "big breasts and fat butt" of the young model overnight.
quickly fell from the top and plummeted ever since.
01 Love at first sight
In 1992, at the age of nine, Lin Dan was sent to the Fujian Provincial Sports School by his parents and officially began professional badminton training.
Because his home is far away from the sports school, every time his parents come to visit, he would shed tears reluctantly at a young age.
For this reason, Lin’s mother prepared several empty envelopes for him in advance, filling in his home address and contact person, so that he could write home at any time.
From then on, Lin Dan began a long ten years of sports school life while missing his mother.
"Mom, you must come!"
"I'm waiting for you all the time!"
At the same time, at the Guangzhou Sports School 800 kilometers away, Xie Xingfang, who is two years older than him, often pretends to be sick in order to stay home for an extra day on weekends.
Every time when she went back to school, she would lie on the bed groaning and feebly asking her parents to ask for "sick leave" for her. Although she could "do it" for one more day every time as she wished, her seven years of sports school life still continued.
In 1995, two people, eight hundred kilometers apart, left their respective sports schools at almost the same time.
This year, twelve-year-old Lin Dan was spotted by the Bayi Engineering Brigade and became a young soldier.
Fourteen-year-old Xie Xingfang joined the Guangzhou badminton team and began to shine on the court.
In 1997, Xie Xingfang, who had an outstanding record, was selected into the National Badminton Youth Team.
Her and his fates began to gradually intersect from then on.
This year, Lin Dan followed the Bayi team to Nanri Island military training. Going out to do exercises, standing guard, and training from morning to night were a bit overwhelming for the fourteen-year-old Lin Dan.
However, fate favored Lin Dan and arranged a heart-pounding encounter for him during the tough military training.
At that time, the National Youth Badminton Team happened to go to Nanri Island for training, and Xie Xingfang was among them.
While training in the arena one day, the boys from the Bayi team whispered to Xie Xingfang not far away. Lin Dan's teammates also told him in amazement:
There is a girl over there who is very tall and has very long legs. She is quite beautiful.
Lin Dan looked back secretly, and his heart was moved at one glance. From then on, Xie Xingfang's appearance and beauty were deeply imprinted in his heart.
It was not enough for fate to arrange an encounter, but it also arranged for him to become Xie Xingfang's sparring partner.
However, at this time, the young Lin Dan was not yet a veteran in love. During the whole afternoon of sparring, not only could he not get a phone number, he did not even say a word.
But the result of youthfulness was that for five years, he and she were just acquaintances.
But what he didn't know was that when he was reluctant to take that step, his reputation had already reached Xie Xingfang's ears.
02 Perseverance finally touched the heart of "Fang"
In 2000, Lin Dan entered the national team and saw the figure in his memory again. But due to the boundary between new and old team members, he did not dare to approach Xie Xingfang.
But he wanted to talk to her again, so he gave her the nickname "Qiuxiang" privately, trying to attract her attention, but he did not succeed.
There is no chance of love sprouting, Lin Dan put his sweat on the field, stood on the podium of All England Championship , and won the trophy of Korea Open .
In this game, because the Korean opponent was out of bounds, the Korean referee was awarded a good goal, and Lin Dan was so angry that he played against the referee.
It’s a pity that he failed to get justice. Therefore, in the subsequent games, he had more movements and larger amplitudes, which made Xie Xingfang in the stands stunned:
"It's like a performance, very exaggerated."
exaggerated so much that she left a deep impression on her.
She knew his reputation, and with the achievements, he also began to take the initiative.
During a team treatment, Lin Dan and Xie Xingfang happened to be in line. He started treatment first, while she waited boredly, chatting with him in a mess.
During the chat, Lin Dan found a suitable opportunity and asked: "I don't have your phone number yet."
Because his tone was very natural, Xie Xingfang didn't think much about it, so she said: "Then I'll give it to you."
At that time, she didn't think at all that he would like himself. After getting the number
, Lin Dan began to send her text messages from time to time, and waited for the right opportunity to invite her out for dinner.
When he first made an appointment with someone, he was both happy and nervous. He was not preparing to confess his love, but felt that he was finally one step closer to her.
After invited her to have dinner several times, he took the opportunity to confess to her. However, Xie Xingfang rejected him immediately.
How could he like himself who is two years older than him?
She didn't believe it, but Lin Dan did not give up. Not only did she chat and eat, but she also brought her a gift when she was out for competition.
However, the first gift he gave made Xie Xingfang full of doubts:
"Strange, what does it mean to give a pair of slippers?"
Later, she realized that Lin Dan had noticed that her slippers were old, so she specially gave a pair of new slippers.
And with his careful and persistent pursuit, Xie Xingfang opened his "heart" and accepted his entry.
But due to the national team regulations, the two can only fall in love secretly.
When this love was carefully hidden in the dark, Zhao Yaqi, who had already embarked on the road of modeling, finally won the first prize in her life - the Hong Kong, Macao and Guangdong Dance Competition, with her proud figure.
Since then, she has begun to enter the public's vision and also provides the possibility for her encounter with Lin Dan.
However, there are still fourteen years left before they meet.
03 Deep affection, and they reached the top 15 times together
In 2004, when the Chinese badminton team won the soup and Yu Cup for the first time, Lin Dan turned to Xie Xingfang and said that he hoped that the two of them would have the opportunity to win the trophy together.
Due to angle problems, this picture was interpreted by the media as: "Lin Dan couldn't help but kiss Xie Xingfang." Therefore, their relationship was made public.
However, the lover who just made public immediately encountered difficulties.
It was also in this year that Xie Xingfang missed the Athens Olympics , but Lin Dan was eliminated in the first round.
For a moment, the sky was full of criticism towards the two and their relationship.
However, at that time, Lin Dan had no time to take care of the outside world's discussions, and his experience of "one round of travel" made him fall into confusion and self-doubt.
The darkest twenty days in Athens were Xie Xingfang who accompanied him slowly came out on the phone.
At that time, they were indeed deeply in love.
She didn't cook the soup, he would drink it all; when he was nauseous in the middle of the night, he had to think about it for a long time before he decided to go to the bathroom and vomit.
He will buy her favorite clothes or accessories.
He will also sneak out to buy cakes and flowers when he is not allowed to go out in training, and then after the training is over, he can't wait to send his birthday surprise to her room.
She reached the top fifteen times with him on the road of love for seven years and witnessed the whole process of becoming the "Super Pill".
When they made their final sprint for the 16th round of the Beijing Olympics,
Zhao Yaqi, who was 22 years old at the time, also began her own beauty pageant, and participated in the beauty pageant between Miss World and Miss InterContinental .
Unfortunately, both competitions stopped in the South China Championship and she failed to go further.
Zhao Yaqi is naturally unwilling to give up, but she can't go to the competition, so she can only operate it and transform into a judge of these two competitions.
Just as she was struggling to climb up, Xie Xingfang had already stood on the highest podium of the All England Championship.
Lin Dan hurriedly bought a bouquet of roses. At the instigation of the reporter, he gave her this bouquet in front of the audience and the camera, and also gave her a "first kiss on the screen".
In the face of this "sensational kiss", criticism and doubt, champion and reputation have generally lost their color.
What the audience cares more about is whether this pair of "The Legend of Condor Heroes" in the badminton world can achieve the right result.
04 Start with a kiss and end with a kiss
In 2008, Lin Dan and Xie Xingfang ushered in the 16th chance to reach the top together.
Lin Dan did stand on the highest podium of the Olympics, but Xie Xingfang regretted winning the silver and ended her sports career.
What comforted her was that she had reaped the fruits of love. Lin Dan handed over the gold medal, the key to the mansion, and the future life together to her.
She was overjoyed and washed his hands and made soup for him from then on.
Lin Dan's passionate affection at this moment actually has only 8 years.
At that time, Zhao Yaqi, who was 25 years old, made rapid progress in her career and served as the host of the TV station CITY and the China Cover Model Competition. These resumes helped her take over her first movie "Lily" and become an entertaining entertainment industry.
Although this movie failed to make her famous, it allowed her to gain Gao Hu, the minister under her skirt. The two of them are at the World Trade Center in Beijing, walking close to each other, with their fingers tightly clasped, so sweet.
But after sweet "interaction" for several months, the two walked onto their own single-plank bridge.
Zhao Yaqi focused on her career again. After some operation, she entered the international fashion market and won a Best Dress Award. The increase in her reputation has helped her go further in the entertainment industry, and she has been invited to film and television dramas and variety shows.
If she concentrates on her career, she may be able to make a fortune.
Ko's "bad fate" with Lin Dan made her work was wasted and she was deeply trapped in the quagmire from now on.
It is only 5 years since the beginning of this "bad fate".
At this time, Lin Dan and Xie Xingfang registered to get married and lived a newlywed life with a deep affection.
The first year after marriage coincides with Xie Xingfang's 30th birthday.
Lin Dan planned a surprise birthday party and gave a affectionate confession:
"I hope you will always be with you in the future. At the same time, I will also be with you."
In 2012, Lin Dan personally planned the wedding of the two, using Olympic tickets as wedding invitations. The barcode on the ticket hides the promise of "Love you for a lifetime" .
Xie Xingfang, wrapped in love and affection, had a happy smile on her face.
However, the shelf life of this promise is only four years.
In 2013, when Li Dan won his fifth World Championships, he rushed down the arena and kissed Xie Xingfang, who was commenting on the commentator, with affectionate kisses.
On the podium, he shared the honor with her and kissed her again.
But this relationship started with a kiss and seemed to end with a deep kiss.
05 The deep love in the past was destroyed overnight
In 2016, Lin Dan continued to compete in major competitions. Xie Xingfang, with a big belly, cheered and prayed for him. Unfortunately, he didn't perform well.
People thought he was in poor condition, but later they discovered that maybe his "energy" was too high.
Because at this time, Zhao Yaqi's figure had already appeared in his arena and life.
Moreover, there was also a bloody plot in which the wife and lover were present at the same time.
However, it only lasted for a month. When Xie Xingfang gave birth to her child, the "bottomless" paparazzi used all-round videos and the most comprehensive explanations to tear off Lin Dan's "loving wife" mask in one fell swoop.
The Internet was full of abuse and condemnation, and his good image collapsed.
He stood up and apologized to his family, and as his family member, Xie Xingfang also publicly expressed forgiveness.
But as a lover, it is unknown whether she has forgiven her.
The couple expressed that they should "do it and cherish it." As a third party, Zhao Yaqi hurriedly held a press conference and apologized to the public in tears.
There was no "war of the century", and the turmoil gradually subsided with apologies and forgiveness. After the
controversy, Lin Dan decided to use his results to defeat doubts from all parties. It took him three years to return to the top.
However, no matter how superior the record is, this past event cannot be completely sealed.
In 2020, after returning to the top, Lin Dan retired bravely and ended his athlete career.
He retreated, but after three years of hiding, Zhao Yaqi was pulled out again to accept the lashings from all sides. In desperation, she could only respond again.
However, no matter how sincerely she said it, she could not get rid of the bad reputation of the "third party".
Lin Dan, on the other hand, is known as the double-lap badminton "Grand Slam" and is active in business and variety shows, earning both fame and fortune.
But can fame and fortune really save him?
seems to not be able to.
On stage, he looks like a successful person; but off stage, the audience is still talking about the scandal of "butt touching and crotch touching"; when searching for his information, Zhao Yaqi's figure is always among them.
Xie Xingfang, who started her own business and has tens of millions of wealth, also began to avoid talking about the sweetness of the past, and just said in an understatement:
"Marriage is not black and white":
"He (netizens) scolded him, but I lived my life."
The life she talked about was probably for the warm childhood of her children, maintaining the appearance of a happy family of three..
Since this happened, Lin Dan and Xie Xingfang rarely took photos to show their affection; when they went out to play with their son, the two also kept a certain distance, did not look at each other or hold hands, and looked very indifferent.
On December 12, 2022, the badminton exchange center named after the two people was officially opened in Shenzhen Bay. During the promotion, the two were more like business partners, no longer the golden boy and girl who loved passionately in the past.
As the only athlete with a double-lap "Grand Slam", Lin Dan is blameless;
But as a husband and father, there is obviously a "stain" that cannot be washed away.
No one knows whether the "stain" will become heavier as it gets stained, or becomes lighter with washing.
It is said that trust is the cornerstone of love and marriage.
Lin Dan used "butt touching to kill" to destroy the deep affection in his youth, the attention in love, the sweetness in newlyweds, and Xie Xingfang's complete trust.
There is still a long way to go to rebuild trust.
