Li Na, a brilliant women's tennis player, was born with a journey that wasn't destined to be smooth sailing. She was born in an ordinary family, and her father Li Shengpeng was an elite member of the Hubei Provincial Badminton Team.
It's a pity that fate seems to be playing tricks on purpose, Li Shengpeng suffered from a stubborn disease of congenital vascular stenosis, and his physique was difficult to meet the strict requirements of professional athletes, and his sports career was forced to come to an end due to illness, leaving endless regrets.
In the face of such a predicament, Li Shengpeng did not give up his expectations for the future, and he poured all his expectations into his only daughter Li Na, who had just fallen to the ground.
He hoped that this child, who carried the family's bloodline, could inherit his sports dream and continue to carry forward his unfinished career.
However, Li Shengpeng's coach had a discerning eye and found that Li Na's natural athletic talent was more suitable for the competitive sport of tennis. After some guidance from her coach, Li Na did not hesitate to devote herself to the tennis court to meet a new challenge and open a new chapter in her life.
When Li Na was only 14 years old, she successfully entered the youth team of the Hubei Provincial Tennis Team with her amazing strength and began to receive professional and systematic training.
Everything seems to be moving in a good direction. However, fate once again played a cruel joke on Li Na and her family. At the critical moment, bad news came from the family: his father Li Shengpeng's condition deteriorated sharply, and his life was in danger.
When he was dying, Li Shengpeng specially told his wife not to tell his young daughter Li Na about it, so as not to affect her performance in the upcoming important events.
The death of her father undoubtedly brought a heavy blow to Li Na. At the moment when she needed support and encouragement the most, the most important supporter in her life was ruthlessly carried away by death.
At the same time, the family was also in debt due to the father's high medical expenses, and fell into financial difficulties.
The successive blows made Li Na lose the direction of her life for a while. She became reticent, and the innocence and kindness in her heart collapsed in an instant.
Even during the festive season, she would rather choose to stay alone on campus than return to the remarriage of her mother, who was once full of warmth, which made Li Na's spiritual world more and more empty and lonely.
In the face of life's countless challenges and dilemmas, Li Na never chose to back down or be defeated, on the contrary, she put all her passion and expectations into the stage of tennis to pursue her dreams.
She endures extraordinary pressure every day, sweats on the field, and writes her legendary story with endless struggle.
Even though fate put Li Na to the test, she never gave in, but devoted herself to the world of tennis with unwavering conviction. Under the guidance of provincial team coach Yu Liqiao, Li Na underwent rigorous and brutal training.
Yu Liqiao, the gold medal coach of the provincial team, is almost harsh on his disciples, and his temper is as hot as fire. As long as a team member's training attitude or performance does not meet her expectations, she will blame mercilessly, and even add additional punitive training on an ad hoc basis.
However, in such an environment, many players have developed lazy thoughts and always try to reduce the intensity of training out of the coach's sight.
Only Li Na, who was fully focused, resolutely carried out every instruction of the coach, and with perseverance and unwavering determination, she always stuck to the training ground.
The reason why Li Na was able to do this, in addition to the strength from the depths of her heart, is inseparable from the far-reaching influence of her father Li Shengpeng. Although Li Shengpeng's career is full of regrets, his unremitting spirit has been deeply imprinted in his daughter's soul.
Li Na seems to have been born for sports.
With the passage of time, under the spur of Yu Liqiao's strict requirements, Li Na's ball skills improved rapidly, quickly surpassing other teammates and emerging to the fore.
What's even more rare is that she not only learned exquisite skills and rich experience from the coach, but also deeply understood the unique philosophy and life wisdom behind the strict requirements and fiery personality.
In the end, the hard work paid off handsomely, and after a long and arduous struggle, Li Na successfully won the Grand Slam singles championship twice in her career, becoming the first female tennis player in Asia to win this honor.
This is undoubtedly the best proof of her years of dedication, and it is also a perfect interpretation of her outstanding strength.
However, at this incomparably glorious moment, Li Na's unique character regrets, hidden in the depths of her heart, are gradually exposed to the world, allowing people to understand more deeply the story behind this seemingly perfect athlete.
Whenever Li Na encounters a challenge or gets into a difficult situation on the field, the long-suppressed anger in her heart will always erupt like a volcano, and the most unfortunate victim is often her husband Jiang Shan.
Even on live TV, Li Na did not hide her emotions, always showing her anger in the presence of a wide audience around the world, roaring at Jiang Shan, and even speaking ill of him, completely ignoring his face and dignity.
Although Jiang Shan is her coach and the closest person in her life, the relationship between them is not properly protected in the face of Li Na's anger.
What's more, in the face of many fans, media reporters and fans, Li Na often shows an arrogant and self-righteous attitude.
Once, in an interview, a reporter asked her how to respond to the question of failing to meet the expectations of fans, but she dismissed it, and instead retorted, "Do I need to kneel down and kowtow to apologize to the fans?"
In Li Na's lonely and tenacious tennis career, there is one person who has always silently supported her and understood her, and that is Jiang Shan. He is not only Li Na's husband, but also her most solid support and safe haven.
The encounter between Jiang Shan and Li Na originated from an interesting experience. Back then, Li Na went to a different place to participate in the competition, but because the coils in her luggage were exhausted, she fell into a penniless situation.
Just when she was helpless, her father Li Shengpeng had to go to the provincial team to ask for help, but she didn't expect to meet Jiang Shan unexpectedly.
In this way, Jiang Shan walked into Li Na's life journey. At first, they were just an ordinary teacher-student relationship, but it wasn't long before Li Na developed a special affection for Jiang Shan.
Although she was just an unknown young contestant at that time, and Jiang Shan had already made a name for herself, she still mustered up the courage to confess her heart to Jiang Shan and gave him a box of high-end chocolates as a confession gift.
So, they started this "secret relationship", cleverly avoiding the strict rules of the team at that time "no falling in love", cherishing and supporting each other, along the way, the relationship became deeper and deeper, and the bond became closer and closer.
After retiring, Jiang Shan did not hesitate to step forward and volunteered to serve as Li Na's coach, and the two started a new chapter in their careers together.
Since then, whenever Li Na encounters any difficulties on the court, Jiang Shan has always done his best to help and protect her, inspiring her fighting spirit and confidence in her own unique way.
However, such a dedicated person sometimes unfortunately became the "scapegoat" for Li Na to vent her emotions. Whenever Li Na is in trouble in a competition, Jiang Shan's opinions and suggestions often become the focus of her dissatisfaction.
During the intermission, Li Na often glared at Jiang Shan angrily, and even spoke ill of him, telling him to "leave as soon as he can't stand it".
What's even more amazing is that even in front of the camera of the live TV, Li Na completely disregarded Jiang Shan's face and dignity. However, despite such treatment, Jiang Shan still faced Li Na with a broad mind and deep understanding, and never felt the slightest resentment towards her.
The reason why Jiang Shan can do this is because he deeply understands Li Na's love and dedication to tennis. In his eyes, Li Na's "pickiness" and "willfulness" are actually just a unique expression of her passion for life.
Therefore, whether she is angry with herself or arrogant and rude to others, he always tries to be as tolerant and understanding as possible.
It was Jiang Shan's selfless understanding and tolerance that gave Li Na endless courage and strength, giving her the courage to fight hard and move forward bravely on the court, and finally won the highest honor in two Grand Slam tournaments.
Jiang Shan has become a haven in Li Na's life, sheltering her from the wind and rain in his own unique way, and becoming her most solid support in difficult times.
The two supported each other and spent the glorious period of Li Na's career together. Although there are often doubts and speculations from the outside world, deep in their hearts, an indestructible and deep emotional bond has already been built.
It is a sincere and pure love that transcends worldly notions.
In 2014, Li Na officially announced her retirement from professional tennis, and the focus of her life shifted to her family. Since then, she and Jiang Shan have formed a warm and harmonious small family and live a happy life.
Although Li Na's personality is sometimes uninhibited and her lifestyle habits do not fully meet the requirements of the traditional "good wife and good mother", her husband Jiang Shan has no complaints.
In his eyes, all of Li Na's mannerisms are full of unique charm and irresistible, and the "willfulness" and "pickiness" that come from nature are precisely what distinguishes her from many ordinary housewives.
As Li Na's husband, Jiang Shan deeply understands and supports his wife's love for life, and has always been tolerant and considerate of her seemingly insignificant little habits.
Even if Li Na never cooks herself, insists on maintaining a certain sense of space when she gets along with her in-laws, or even just calls her in-laws "uncle and aunt" and only entertains guests when necessary, Jiang Shan has never been dissatisfied or accusatory because of this.
In fact, the relationship between Li Na and her in-laws has always been quite harmonious. The two parties are just accustomed to maintaining a proper living distance, and the in-laws are able to understand and accept Li Na's lifestyle that is very different from that of the younger generation.
A few times a year, having dinner together or visiting the market is enough to create a warm and beautiful atmosphere.
Since Li Na's retirement, family has become the center of her life. However, that doesn't mean she's completely cut off from tennis.
The coach, the team, the games and the trophies that made her so happy and proud have become an eternal concern in her heart.
It was Jiang Shan who gave Li Na the courage and determination to pursue her tennis dream and helped her realize the value of life. When the dream was finally held tightly in her hands, she was finally able to pour all her love into Jiang Shan and their small family without any worries.
As a result, this energetic couple stepped into the sacred hall of love, supported each other in the daily trivial firewood, rice, oil and salt, and spent the ordinary and extraordinary life journey together.
Looking back on Li Na's brilliant career and family life after retirement, many of her styles and living habits have been questioned and criticized by the outside world.
One of the most eye-catching is that she has shown an attitude towards housework in her married life since she got married for 16 years, but Li Na has never set foot in the kitchen, and her family's diet is all dependent on takeaway services.
This behavior naturally sparked a heated and fierce discussion among the majority of netizens, who condemned Li Na for "lacking the unique family qualities of women" and "being a good wife and mother, it is difficult to shoulder heavy responsibilities".
Until they appeared on a couples reality show together, openly admitting that their living habits are slightly different from the mainstream standards of society, and there is no need to be overly rigid in traditional rules, so that the outside world can eliminate speculation about their marriage.
In addition to housework, Li Na's attitude towards her parents-in-law is also surprising. It has been 16 years since she got married, and Li Na has not stepped on the threshold of her in-laws' house, and the honorific titles of the two elders are still at the stage of "uncle and aunt".
In the face of doubts, Li Na candidly said that this is not a matter of respect, but a result of lifestyle and age gap.
However, the most controversial thing is undoubtedly Li Na's arrogant attitude towards the media, spectators and fans on the field. She often made rude accusations against fans, and was even more merciless to reporters, and even asked rhetorically: "Do I have to kneel and kowtow to apologize to the fans?"
However, there were also expressions of understanding and support. After all, everyone has different personalities and ways of acting, and Li Na's actions may only be a reflection of her true self, rather than indifference and neglect of her supporters.
Looking back on the love road between Li Na and Jiang Shan, their encounter actually originated from a wonderful fate, which can be called a gift of fate.
The story begins when Li Na travels to a foreign country to participate in an important event. As a young player, she was financially struggling at the time.
Just when the entanglement in her bag was exhausted and she was penniless, Li Na fell into an extreme predicament, just when she was helpless and had nothing to do, her father Li Shengpeng had to turn to the Hubei Provincial tennis team, and unexpectedly met Jiang Shan.
So, Jiang Shan broke into Li Na's life by chance and became an indispensable precious gift in her life. At first, the two were just an ordinary teacher-student relationship, but soon after, Li Na developed a special affection for Jiang Shan.
At that time, Li Na was still a little-known young fighter, and Jiang Shan was already famous, but this did not extinguish the flame of courage burning in her.
She resolutely expressed her love to Jiang Shan, whom she had admired for a long time, and presented a box of carefully prepared chocolates to show her affection.
In the face of Li Na's brave confession, Jiang Shan obviously understood his intentions, so the two took the first step in this "secret relationship".
At that time, the athlete team had a strict attitude towards romance, so the relationship between Li Na and Jiang Shan can be described as under great pressure, as if it was struggling to move forward in a treacherous wave.
However, they relied on treating each other sincerely and supporting each other to overcome one predicament after another, and their feelings became deeper and deeper, and it was difficult to let go.
In this way, from the initial teacher-student relationship, it gradually developed into an underground lover, and finally became a lifelong couple. They have experienced most of their careers together, and every time Li Na struggles the field, Jiang Shan always silently supports her and becomes her strongest backing.
After retiring, Li Na shifted the focus of her life to her family, while Jiang Shan changed from a coach to a husband role, wholeheartedly solving problems for his wife.
Since then, their lives have been filled with laughter and tears, joys, sorrows, and sorrows.
Li Na and Jiang Shan have been able to get to where they are today, and a large part of the reason is due to Li Na's father, Li Shengpeng. It was his earnest request and careful arrangement that enabled Jiang Shan and Li Na to form an indissoluble bond and then move towards the palace of marriage.
If there is no coincidence, perhaps the trajectory of Li Na and Jiang Shan's lives will be turned upside down, and just a single thought may make them miss each other forever.
