Preface:
Love is like flowers and plants, which need to be cared for with heart to bloom and bloom.
However, life circumstances are ever-changing, and some marriages eventually fail to escape the fate of withering.
The love between Shen Teng and Wang Qi is such a story of ups and downs.
On the surface, it seems to be sweet and happy, but there are too many mysteries hidden in the shadows.
The original obsession and paranoia eventually caused their marriage to fall apart under the test of time.
We don't judge it, if the relationship could have started more openly, would the outcome have been different? All that is left for us is endless thinking.
In 2002, an encounter that was destined to go badly...
Shen Teng and Wang Qi: A fate destined to break up
In the fall of 2002, Shen Teng and Wang Qi met in the Performance Department of the PLA Academy of Arts.
Shen Teng is three years older than Wang Qi and is a student overlord in the acting department.
Wang Qi, on the other hand, is a freshman with a spicy and bold personality.
It was a rainy autumn day, and the performance department held a freshman meeting in the indoor theater.
Shen Teng spoke on stage as the representative of the seniors, and his humorous speech caused laughter in the audience.
Wang Qi sat in the first row, whispering with the girls around him from time to time.
After the meeting, the department arranged for new students to visit various drama clubs on campus.
Wang Qi was most interested in the dialogue drama club, and followed the president Shen Teng to their rehearsal venue.
Shen Teng was instructing the members to rehearse excerpts from the play, and Wang Qi was attracted by his input.
"This classmate, you come to try the role of this maid." Shen Teng beckoned Wang Qi to the stage.
Who knew that Wang Qi talked to himself as soon as he came up, and he had no intention of entering the play at all.
"I think this character setting is too weak, and it should be more personal."
Wang Qi suggested, and Shen Teng's face was ugly.
"The rules still have to be followed, and newcomers should honestly listen to the guidance."
Shen Teng's tone was not good.
"Rules can also be broken, isn't innovation better?" Wang Qi was not to be outdone.
The two exchanged words, leaving the members present embarrassed and speechless.
Although the process was not very pleasant, Shen Teng couldn't help but be impressed by this girl with a spicy personality.
The first semester is a time to grind in with each other.
Wang Qi is proud and always wants to prove himself; Shen Teng believes that newcomers need to learn humbly.
The two have different concepts and often argue about the details of the performance.
"You are so stubborn at such a young age, you will definitely suffer losses in the future." Shen Teng couldn't bear it.
"I just have my own ideas, and I don't need the consent of you old fritters!" Wang Qi's words were astonishing.
Although it is not right, Shen Teng also admits that Wang Qi is indeed very talented, as long as he can change Lisuo's personality, the future is limitless.
In 2003, a performance brought two hearts closer
In the spring of 2003, the SARS incident led to the closure of the campus.
In order to enrich the student activities, the college decided to hold a week-long cultural special program.
It's a great opportunity to show what's going on, and all the acting clubs are getting ready.
Shen Teng is responsible for writing and directing the programs of the drama club, and he decided to integrate and adapt various classic drama fragments to add elements of today's young people.
After the script was completed, he asked Wang Qi to play one of the supporting roles.
"I don't want to play a supporting role, I want to be a heroine!" Wang Qi directly refused.
"Your current acting skills are not worthy of the heroine, and it is your common disease not to accept advice." Shen Teng said impatiently.
"I'm going to give it a try, how do you know if I can do it without giving me a chance?" Wang Qi has a tough attitude.
The two argued for a long time, and finally reached a consensus under the mediation of the members to let Wang Qi try the heroine.
Shen Teng thought to himself, let you try it, I want to see how you act.
After a month of high-intensity rehearsals, the program of the drama club finally took shape, and Wang Qi's performance also impressed Shen Teng.
She played the role well and successfully dismissed Shen Teng's doubts.
The special program arrived as scheduled, and the atmosphere was warm in the college.
The drama club's program received a sensational response, and the audience resounded with warm applause and cheers.
At the end of the play, Shen Teng and Wang Qi joined hands to call the curtain, and the two exchanged a knowing look.
After the show, Shen Teng asked Wang Qi to go back to the dormitory together.
On the way, the two discussed the performance, and Shen Teng did not hesitate to praise Wang Qi's performance. "I really admire your courage, you made me see the possibility of a heroine.
We can partner up for more plays in the future. ”
"It was your training and encouragement that gave me the confidence to try this role, and I am grateful." Wang Qi said softly.
Since that day, the relationship between the two has grown by leaps and bounds. Shen Teng would call a group of friends and ask Wang Qi to eat and watch a movie together.
Wang Qi also took the initiative to discuss performance skills with Shen Teng, and the two often practiced together until late at night.
On a young April day, even the night is covered with a hazy soft light.
In 2007, an episode of a brief breakup
After graduating from university, Shen Teng chose to stay in a theater troupe near the college to develop.
At first, he could only play some supporting roles or tricks, and his life was difficult.
Wang Qi's acting career has been smooth sailing, and after playing supporting actresses in several hit dramas, her popularity has risen.
The two gathered less and separated more, and gradually drifted apart.
Wang Qi has always paid attention to career planning, and she believes that she must seize the opportunity to go all out.
Shen Teng, on the other hand, focuses on the process and always feels that the opportunity will come sooner or later.
Different values lay the groundwork for the relationship between the two.
In the Spring Festival of 2007, Shen Teng invited Wang Qi to go home for the New Year.
Wang Qi refused on the grounds of busy work and proposed to break up in turn.
"I think there are too many differences between us, and there is no future if we continue like this."
Wang Qi's tone was calm and determined. This was like a thunderbolt for Shen Teng.
"Do you want to end all these years of relationship in just a few words? I am willing to make a change for us. Shen Teng was anxious.
"Everyone's direction is different, and we should have faced reality long ago.
This is good for both sides. Wang Qi stood up and left without looking back.
The breakup was a heavy blow to Shen Teng, and he fell into self-doubt and confusion.
Fortunately, his old friend Ma Li has been accompanying him, and Shen Teng gradually came out of the haze.
At the same time, new opportunities are ushered in in the career.
A certain director took a fancy to Shen Teng's comedy talent and gave him the opportunity to play a large-scale stage play.
Shen Teng worked overtime all day to rehearse and finally regained his confidence.
After the success of the stage play, Shen Teng plucked up the courage to call Wang Qi.
"I want to give us another chance, and this time I will take it."
Wang Qi on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time, and finally agreed to get back together with him.
Perhaps it was this separation that touched Wang Qi, and from then on, she began to devote herself wholeheartedly to the relationship.
Wang Qi slowed down his work and focused more time and energy on taking care of Shen Teng.
Shen Teng's small achievement is the happiest thing for her.
In 2012, his career improved, and Wang Qi urged him to get married
At the 2012 Spring Festival Gala, Shen Teng became popular with "Today's Happiness", and his popularity skyrocketed.
Wang Qi watched him leap from a nobody, and his heart surging.
"We've known each other for so many years, and now that you've had a successful career, isn't it time to think about the next step?" Wang Qi asked tentatively.
"What's next? It seems that there is no rush for a while, I just want to concentrate on my work now. Shen Teng dodged.
"You're also at marriageable age, and my parents can't wait." Wang Qi is not dead.
"Now my career is just beginning, and I haven't even reached the point where I want to get married." Shen Teng looked embarrassed.
Wang Qi was eager to stabilize the relationship. She no longer directly mentioned the marriage, but put pressure on Shen Teng through actions.
When attending the event, Wang Qi would hold Shen Teng in a high-profile manner and declare sovereignty to everyone.
He also always confessed in public, embarrassing Shen Teng in public.
Over the years, Wang Qi has paid too much, and she really can't afford to wait.
Shen Teng's shirking made her very anxious. Wang Qi tried to put pressure on Shen Teng, afraid that this person would fly away.
In 2015, under pressure, Shen Teng chose to give in
In 2015, Shen Teng's popularity increased day by day.
He is no longer a small supporting role, but a leading actor who can single-handedly pick a big beam.
This year, Shen Teng has won the championship of many popular variety shows.
"When will you finish your lifelong event with Miss Wang?" The host asked with a smile.
"It depends on fate, there must be a suitable time." Shen Teng was vague.
"You've all known each other for more than ten years, what time are you waiting for?" The moderator asked.
Shen Teng smiled and said nothing. The atmosphere at the scene was somewhat awkward.
This is not the first person to mention marriage to him, and the pressure is increasing.
At this moment, Wang Qi's parents publicly expressed their position, hoping that Shen Teng would give Wang Qi a title as soon as possible.
"Our old couple is looking forward to this wedding date, you can't always give our maid a clean heart." The father-in-law spoke seriously.
Shen Teng was forced into a corner, and this marriage could not be shirked.
Wang Qi finally waited for psychological preparation, she showed that this was her long-cherished wish, and the whole family was looking forward to this day.
The agent suggested that Shen Teng seize the opportunity to propose, otherwise he would face a word-of-mouth crisis of "negative heart".
In desperation, Shen Teng could only choose to give in. He carefully designed the marriage proposal ceremony, hoping to give Wang Qi a perfect ending.
At the marriage proposal scene, Shen Teng smiled, but his heart was mixed.
Seeing Wang Qi excitedly accepting the engagement ring, his heart knot was not untied.
In 2016, the scenery was married, and netizens angrily sent "congratulations"
In 2016, Shen Teng and Wang Qi registered their marriage.
At the wedding of the two, Wang Qi was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut.
"Thanking my friends and family for witnessing our union is my greatest wish in this life."
Wang Qi said with tears in his speech.
However, the public reaction was not enthusiastic, and they expressed doubts online.
"I can't see that the groom is happy, and this wedding is like a show."
"I'm scared for Shen Teng, this woman is too terrible."
In the comment area, netizens express sympathy in every word.
Everyone believes that this is a marriage forcibly obtained by Wang Qi, and there is no talk of two loves at all.
What's more, more than 10,000 bad comments were sent directly to Wang Qi.
"Congratulations on your success by forcibness, this marriage is destined to be fruitless."
"You think you can keep someone by stratagem? Hum. Netizens did not hide their anger in the slightest.
Wang Qi turned off the comment, but he was faintly uneasy in his heart. She hopes that time will dilute everything and make everyone agree on the correctness of this marriage.
In 2022, the marriage changed, and the two faced falling apart
Time has passed, and the marriage of the once loving couple has gradually drifted away in the passage of time.
The marriage that Wang Qi used his best efforts to obtain really cracked under the grind of time.
At the beginning of 2022, Shen Teng's cervical spine disease recurred and he had to fly to Japan for medical treatment.
However, to the surprise of the outside world, Wang Qi did not accompany him.
This unusual move immediately caused an uproar online.
"Wasn't it inseparable in the past, why was it not by the husband's side at the critical moment?" Everyone sighed and had many doubts.
There are also rumors that Shen Teng posted Weibo in Japan to ask for language barriers, which is an allusion to Wang Qi, who has failed in his duties.
Not being around to help each other at this time shows that the relationship between the husband and wife must have broken down.
At the same time, Wang Qi's photos were also circulating in major forums in China.
She sat around the table with a group of boyfriends, smiling.
"The separation from virtue is so obvious, what is left of this marriage to save?" Netizens rushed to comment.
The estrangement between the two did not help calm the speculation of the outside world, but pushed the divorce rumors to a peak.
Public opinion overwhelmingly decided that this was a doomed marriage.
The story is not over, and we do not know the truth.
But time has passed, and the marriage that was once forced is finally difficult to repair the original rift.
Whether we can also give it a good ending, let's wait and see.
Epilogue:
The marriage of Shen Teng and Wang Qi has gone through many trials in this way, and it is difficult to escape the end in jealousy.
Feelings are a match made in heaven, but they are distorted and dominated by external forces.
We are not allowed to glimpse the hearts of this past lover, we can only see the rupture and tumble under the lens of the years.
Maybe they will get back together and heal the past barriers.
Or perhaps, some fates are difficult to repeat after all.
In any case, the unforgettable memories that were once forged have become memories that will no longer be destroyed.
May this past couple find their own happiness in their lifetime.
This marriage, which was destined to break up, also became a precious turning point in their lives.
Bless the life and the world, and finally become a dependent.
