A fateful encounter
In the spring of 1995, 19-year-old Xia Yu happily stepped into the gate of the Central Academy of Drama. As the first mainland Venice actor, he bathed in the attention and expectations of everyone, and drew a blueprint for his beautiful college life.
Not long after the start of school in a blink of an eye, a girl named Yuan Quan came into his sight. She has waist-length hair, delicate facial features, and a bookish and quiet gesture.
What Xia Yu noticed even more was that this girl from Hubei was always alone, and her expression was faintly lonely.
Xia Yu took the initiative to talk to her, and it turned out that she was also a freshman in the acting department. The two quickly became acquainted, and Xia Yu had a good impression of this girl who was ignorant of the world and began to pursue it.
At first, Yuan Quan always avoided him, but Xia Yu didn't give up, until one day, he asked her out to enjoy the scenery.
Unexpectedly, the sky was not beautiful, and it rained heavily. The two of them had to sit in the car, listening to music and chatting with each other. Yuan Quan also slowly let down his guard and revealed his true self.
Xia Yu realized that the two of them were so compatible, as if God was destined to come together.
The difference in the background of the two people
Xia Yu and Yuan Quan grew up in different environments. Xia Yu's parents divorced when he was a child, and he lived with his busy father, with a detached personality and always doing his own thing. And Yuan Quan left his hometown early and went to study in other places alone, which endured a lot of psychological pressure.
When Xia Yu was a child, his parents were not harmonious, and they divorced and broke up within a few years. He lived with his father, but his father was immersed in art and rarely took care of him.
Without the restraint of parents, Xia Yu has developed a flamboyant and informal personality.
And Yuan Quan was originally a child from an ordinary family in Hubei, and he showed his love and talent for drama when he was in elementary school. Through layers of selection, she got the opportunity to study Xi at the Chinese Academy of Drama in Beijing, which is undoubtedly a great thing for her family.
However, leaving his family to study alone, Yuan Quan endured too much alone. She had to grow up quickly and learn to solve everything on her own.
So when the two met in Chinese opera, Xia Yu gave Yuan Quan warmth and support, so that she could take off her guard and occasionally be willful like a little girl. And Yuan Quan also gave Xia Yu the object of sincere treatment, so that he no longer always went his own way and learned to be considerate of others.
The complementary personalities and growth environment of the two made their time together particularly precious and beautiful.
Social experience, emotional experience of ups and downs
After graduating from college, Xia Yu and Yuan Quan went their separate ways to develop their careers in the entertainment industry. Yuan Quan chose to fade out of the camera, worked hard in the drama industry, and finally became the youngest inductee of the Chinese Drama Centennial Hall of Fame in one fell swoop.
And Xia Yu continues to shine in the film and television industry, starring in many well-known movies, and is also well-known in the circle.
At first, the two had smooth careers, and their relationship was as sweet as honey. However, the good times did not last long, and the bustling film and television industry eventually eroded feelings. In 2006, a photo of Xia Yu and the new Hua Dan Fan Bingbing being photographed kissing went viral on the Internet.
Although Xia Yu explained that Fan Bingbing himself "borrowed the position", Yuan Quan still felt a faint pain in his heart. A year later, during the promotion period of Xia Yu's new film collaboration with Takeshi Kaneshiro, the media revealed the scandal that he was alone with the actress Gao Yuanyuan in the same film late at night.
This time, Yuan Quan cried silently in front of the camera, letting everyone see that this relationship was in jeopardy.
However, just when everyone thought the two would break up, they resumed the picture of sweet kissing on the street. Perhaps, after experiencing the wind and waves, the two confirmed the importance of each other even more.
In 2009, Xia Yu and Yuan Quan officially registered their marriage. Now, they have gone through more than 20 years of ups and downs hand in hand, and they are happier than many people.
The reason why it finally came together
After experiencing ups and downs, Xia Yu and Yuan Quan still came together. In this Vanity Fair, they have maintained their sincerity for more than 20 years, which is moving.
The main reason for this is that the two always know and respect each other.
After the Gao Yuanyuan scandal in 2007, the picture of Yuan Quan crying in front of the camera deeply hurt Xia Yu. In fact, he and Gao Yuanyuan are just ordinary friends, and their feelings are pure.
But this incident is bound to make Yuan Quan think about it. Xia Yu realized that in so many years of getting along, she had not been able to appreciate her thoughts, what a selfish performance.
As a result, Xia Yu began to reflect and review. He took the initiative to meet Yuan Quan, sincerely apologized to her, and expressed his guilt. He promised that he would cherish her feelings more in the future and think more from her point of view.
Xia Yu's sincere repentance finally moved Yuan Quan. She understands that only Xia Yu is the one who supports her consistently.
The biggest reason why the two finally got back together was because they deeply understood each other's needs. Xia Yu gave Yuan Quan warmth and freedom and never interfered in her life.
Yuan Quan also tolerated Xia Yu's temperament and provided support in his most difficult times. It is this mutual respect and compassion that has allowed them to survive the ups and downs of the long years.
