Wang Junxia, who is in her fifties, stands in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of her home in California, USA, staring at the five children playing in the yard. She wore a bright red dress, shining in the sun, and her delicate face made it hard to believe that she had gone through more than half a century of life.
Looking at the innocent smiles of the children, Wang Junxia's heart was warm, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but smile happily.
This is her life now, her loving husband Li Huiyang and five children form a warm family. Running and playing in the yard are the three children born to Wang Junxia and her previous two husbands, as well as the flesh and blood sprouts of her and Li Huiyang.
Despite their different backgrounds, in this family, every child is regarded as the jewel of the palm of the hand, and is equally cared for and loved.
Looking back on the past, Wang Junxia couldn't help but feel emotional. Her life path has been full of twists and turns, experienced countless hardships and setbacks, and even fell into the cage of despair several times. But she never gave up her efforts to find happiness, and finally won a happy ending in the last stand, regaining the happy life she had longed for.
Now, whenever night falls, Wang Junxia snuggles up in her husband's arms with great happiness and listens to Li Huiyang tell her children about her legendary sports career in her youth.
Yes, it has been nearly 30 years since she achieved glory in the Olympic Games, but those years of hard work that belonged to the era of athletes will always be the most valuable experience and source of motivation in her life.
When it comes to Wang Junxia's legendary life, we have to start with her growth experience. When she came into the world in 1973, the environment in her home was poor.
Born in an ordinary family in Jiaohe City, Jilin Province, the economic conditions of his parents can be called poor, which makes the arrival of Wang Junxia's new life even more precious.
However, the good times did not last long, due to the serious malnutrition of the mother during pregnancy, Wang Junxia's birth weight was only six catties. When relatives and friends heard the news and came to visit, they all sweated when they saw her thin body, and persuaded her parents to be more attentive to their diet and supplement enough nutrition.
Indeed, the first few years after Wang Junxia's birth were spent in the shadow of frailty and illness all year round. She is thin, lacks vitality, and always looks sluggish, and the people around her affectionately call her "Little Sick Seedling".
Seeing their daughter's situation, the royal father and queen mother naturally fell into extreme anxiety and worry.
Although the family is poor, they are not discouraged, but are determined to strengthen their daughter's body through exercise. From then on, early every morning, as long as the sky was about to dawn, the royal father would take Wang Junxia's little hand and take her to run and exercise on the streets near her home.
At first, the thin Wang Junxia couldn't keep up with her father's footsteps at all, and was often out of breath, and even almost fainted on the side of the road a few times. But her father never lost patience with her, but dragged her up again and again, telling her that "persistence is victory".
Slowly, as time went by, Wang Junxia's body did quietly change, not only did she not get sick as often as before, but she also gradually developed a strong interest in running.
After arriving at school, running and running became Wang Junxia's nicknames well-known to teachers and students on campus. As long as she arrives at the recess playground, she is always the first to dance her feet, and her graceful figure is like an arrow off the string, shining in the bright sun.
Since then, Wang Junxia has made up her mind to turn this love of sports into the cornerstone of her future career and pursue higher and farther goals.
At the age of 15, Wang Junxia shined for the first time in an official competition. It was a municipal primary and secondary school student sports meeting, and Wang Junxia represented the school in the 1,500-meter competition.
The moment the starting pistol sounded, she was as swift as a beast out of the cage, running around the track, and soon left the other runners far behind.
Before the finish line, Wang Junxia slowed down, strode into the finish line, and elegantly won the championship. The audience immediately burst into deafening cheers, and the coaches were impressed by her outstanding performance.
At this moment, Wang Junxia finally showed her unparalleled talent in track and field, which attracted everyone's attention.
After returning to school, teachers and classmates offered their most sincere wishes to Wang Junxia, believing that she would be able to shine in her future career with her extraordinary athletic talent.
The school also attaches great importance to Wang Junxia and decided to recommend her to join the provincial team and receive professional track and field training.
Just three years later, at the age of 18, Wang Junxia ushered in the challenging National Games. Whether or not she can excel in this heavyweight event will be the ultimate test of her years of training.
Sure enough, Wang Junxia's never-say-die fighting spirit on the field amazed everyone. Her sharp steps, like a loaded rocket, pierced the sky in the eyes of everyone and became the focus of attention.
In the end, Wang Junxia won the favor of the tournament with excellent results, which also fascinated Ma Junren, the head coach of the Liaoning team at that time. Ma Junren can be said to be the most outstanding "gold medal leader" in the track and field industry at that time, he saw Wang Junxia's unparalleled potential at a glance, and immediately threw an olive branch to her, inviting her to join the powerful training camp "Ma Jiajun" led by himself.
Just when her track and field career was reaching the peak of her life, Wang Junxia made a shocking decision - she announced her retirement and threw herself into the palace of marriage.
Although this decision seems inexplicable, for Wang Junxia, who has been bruised on the road of love several times, it is the beginning of a cautious pick-up and a new start.
Wang Junxia's first marriage was with football player Zhan Yu. After meeting and falling in love, the two were like glue and fell in love. Soon after the marriage, an angelic child was born into their home, pushing the couple's sweet life to a climax.
But the good times didn't last long, and as time went by, contradictions came, and love began to dim.
Zhan Yu has a strong inferiority complex and can't look directly at his wife's huge prestige and lofty status in society. He became increasingly cold to Wang Junxia, and the two often quarreled, and the illusion of family harmony was completely broken.
What's more, Zhan Yu actually did some hurtful behavior. After 9 years of painful torture, Wang Junxia finally decided to divorce him and left all her property to her ex-husband.
After the divorce, Wang Junxia once fell into an emotional quagmire and completely lost confidence in marriage. But fate seems to be playing tricks on her, and in 1999, at a dinner party in the United States, Wang Junxia met a polite man, Huang Tianwen.
Although the two did not have much contact at that time, Huang Tianwen's gentlemanly demeanor left a deep impression on Wang Junxia.
In the nine years that followed, Wang Junxia left this brief encounter behind her and concentrated on her career. Until one day, Huang Tianwen took the initiative to show up and enthusiastically launched a journey of pursuit.
Despite her mother's strong opposition, Wang Junxia, who was already in love at the time, turned a deaf ear and finally married Huang Tianwen and settled in the United States with him.
But the life after marriage is far from what Wang Junxia wants. Huang Tianwen imprisoned her at home like a tyrant and strictly controlled her life one by one. Wang Junxia lived a prison-like life, with no freedom at all.
What's even more outrageous is that Huang Tianwen has set up a camera at home to monitor Wang Junxia's every move all the time.
This kind of harsh treatment made Wang Junxia's fire that had been held back for five years finally break out. She filed for divorce from Huang Tianwen without hesitation, but was resolutely obstructed by him. Huang Tianwen not only tried his best to stop it, but also deliberately exposed Wang Junxia's privacy in public, intending to humiliate and retaliate.
But Wang Junxia finally resolved him one by one with tenacious willpower and successfully got rid of this painful marriage.
After escaping from Huang Tianwen, Wang Junxia once again fell into hesitation. Her confidence in her marriage has been lost, and she feels that she is destined for a fateful fate.
Just when she was at her most desperate, the god of life seemed to give her another chance to re-examine the meaning of marriage.
One day after the divorce, several netizens created an online community for Wang Junxia out of admiration for her to express their reverence for the legendary athlete.
After Wang Junxia learned about it, she felt warm and decided to join this community under the pseudonym "Wang Xi" to communicate with netizens.
In the beginning, Wang Junxia just used the community as a place to vent her inner feelings. She told netizens in detail about her two bad marriages and the current situation of physical and mental exhaustion.
Wang Junxia was afraid that the next relationship would end in failure like the previous two times, so she did not hide her true identity when she confided online.
At this time, a netizen who called himself "Li Huiyang" began to have a private conversation with Wang Junxia. At first, Li Huiyang only listened to her thoughtfully and did not make any judgments.
Gradually, in the process of Wang Junxia telling the end of her marriage, Li Huiyang found that this woman's inner tenacity and courage deeply moved him.
Knowing that Wang Junxia was still in the divorce entanglement with her ex-husband Huang Tianwen, Li Huiyang made a decisive decision that he would go all out to help "Wang Xi" complete this long and difficult divorce proceedings.
In the days that followed, he was like a reliable assistant, looking for all kinds of legal materials and evidence materials needed for Wang Junxia, and always accompanied her to give spiritual comfort and encouragement.
Gradually, Li Huiyang found that his heart had a deeper and deeper love for the woman "Wang Xi". Once, he couldn't hide the depression in his heart and revealed his heart to his friends: "Wang Xi is so beautiful, I look forward to being able to always be by her side and get along with her."
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, my friend looked sad and said to Li Huiyang seriously: "You should know that Wang Xi is actually the athlete Wang Junxia who once created a legend in the Olympic Games.
She used a pseudonym because her previous marriage was too traumatic and she didn't want to reveal her true identity again.
After learning that "Wang Xi" was actually Wang Junxia, Li Huiyang was shocked. But soon, he made up his mind, walked towards Wang Junxia, and confessed his heart in front of her: "Whether you are Wang Xi or Wang Junxia, you are the pride of my heart."
Even if you haven't gotten rid of your ex-husband's entanglement yet, I will always be by your side and be your solid backing.
Tears were gurgling in Wang Junxia's eyes, and she finally found the last harbor in this life. With the help of Li Huiyang, in January 2015, Wang Junxia finally officially dissolved her marriage with Huang Tianwen, ending this torment.
However, Li Huiyang did not stop there, he was determined to gamble his love. Only a few months later, a diamond ring was cherished by him in front of Wang Junxia and proposed to her.
Although she still hesitated slightly, Wang Junxia finally bravely seized this opportunity, just to be able to embrace happiness again.
So, after a grand wedding, Wang Junxia and Li Huiyang officially entered the palace of marriage and formed a new family together. Li Huiyang not only accepted the children born from Wang Junxia's previous two marriages, but also gave birth to his own flesh and blood with his wife, making this originally broken home immaculate again.
