On December 17, according to the "Jimu News", it was rumored that on October 31 this year, Li Xiaoxiao, a disabled table tennis player, was killed by his ex-boyfriend with a knife, and his parents were also injured.
Li Xiaoxiao, a Chinese paralympic table tennis player, represented the Shanxi team at the 11th National Paralympic Games in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, in October. On the evening of October 27, Li Xiaoxiao/Duan Xianping won the silver medal in the women's TT1 (wheelchair group) table tennis doubles. After the game, Li Xiaoxiao returned to his hometown.
In addition to playing table tennis, Li Xiaoxiao also runs a women's clothing store, part-time as a flat model and car model; she also shares her daily life on a platform, showing an optimistic attitude, and has 12,000 fans.
According to reports, on October 31, Li Xiaoxiao's ex-boyfriend went to his home with a knife and stabbed him to death, and Li Xiaoxiao's parents were also injured in the process of preventing the attack. Insiders revealed that Li Xiaoxiao had been in formal contact with the man involved for more than a year and had just broken up some time before the incident. At present, Li Xiaoxiao's body is still in the funeral home, and it has not been buried.
Li Xiaoxiao recorded a video about his relationship with his ex-boyfriend before his death. She said that she was paraplegic because of a car accident, had no self-care ability, and met her ex-boyfriend on a short video platform. The ex-boyfriend gave her the impression of being steady, down-to-earth and honest. Xiaoxiao's parents also agree with their daughter's love affair.
At the beginning of the relationship, the boyfriend was good to Li Xiaoxiao and took care of her very carefully, but after a long time, some contradictions arose. When they were getting ready to get married, the boyfriend left because of a fight.
"In the past year, he rarely worked, and the job he was looking for felt too tired, too dirty or too hot, and I would all do it, that is, I felt that he was good to me and took good care of me; but in the end, he didn't even bother to take care of me, maybe he didn't want to pretend, so I mentioned breaking up, I didn't want to do it." 」 Li Xiaoxiao confided in the video.
Li Xiaoxiao's murder is regrettable. Also in October of this year, a similar tragedy occurred in Africa. On October 13, Kenyan athletics star Agnes Jebelt Tilop was stabbed to death in his home by her husband at the age of 25. Tilop won the bronze medal in the women's 10,000m at the World Championships in Athletics twice in 2017 and 2019. At this year's Tokyo Olympics, she finished fourth in the women's 5,000 meters.
On September 12, Tilop ran a good time of 30 minutes and 1 seconds in the women's 10 km road race, breaking the world record set by Moroccan Lekhzaui in 2002.
