The women's volleyball team's "vitality girl" Hui Ruoqi's life is new
Once upon a time, when Hui Ruoqi was sweating like rain in the fiery national team jersey, she was the "energetic girl" of the Chinese women's volleyball team. The 1.91-meter-tall attacker, with his outstanding body condition and extraordinary athletic talent, exudes his youthful vitality on the volleyball court and has won numerous honors for the national team. Behind her brilliant career, she has also fought with death twice.
In 2012, Hui Ruoqi was diagnosed with a serious heart attack and needed immediate surgery. Although the surgery was successful, her career came to a standstill. Hui Ruoqi did not give up, she gritted her teeth and insisted on training, and finally returned to the national team in 2016. But who would have thought that on the eve of the Rio Olympics, she suffered the test of life again. During a training session, Hui Ruoqi suddenly fainted on the field and suffered a cardiac arrest. Fortunately, after timely rescue, she finally picked up a life.
Despite her worrying physical condition, Hui Ruoqi still insisted on participating in the Rio Olympics. In the final, she scored a crucial 2 points to help the Chinese women's volleyball team finally win the championship. This gold medal with blood and tears witnessed Hui Ruoqi's persistent pursuit of volleyball. In the post-race interview, she choked up and said: "I have brushed shoulders with death twice, and this gold medal is a gift from God." ＂
In February 2018, 27-year-old Hui Ruoqi announced her retirement and ended her wonderful volleyball career. Two months later, she posted a photo of her wedding to Yang Zhenbo, a medical doctor at Peking University, on social media. Although Yang Zhenbo's height is slightly lower than Hui Ruoqi, the two have achieved good achievements in both knowledge and career. This pair of "match made in heaven" has made countless fans and netizens bless it.
After retiring, Hui Ruoqi started a new life. In February 2021, she announced the good news of her pregnancy on social media. As a former "energetic girl", Hui Ruoqi laughed at herself that she had "upgraded" and prepared a "unique" gift for her unborn child. This gift is her never-give-up volleyball spirit.
More than a month later, Hui Ruoqi gave birth to a beautiful daughter, pushing the family's happiness to new heights. In the following years, she often posted warm photos of her family of three on social media, a happy scene. In May 2023, Hui Ruoqi posted a set of photos to celebrate the 5th anniversary of her marriage to her husband Yang Zhenbo. In the photo, the two took their daughter on a trip together, showing happiness.
Looking back on Hui Ruoqi's life journey, she is like a star that will never be extinguished, shining dazzlingly on the volleyball court. Even when her life was dying, she did not give up her love and dedication to volleyball. It was this perseverance that allowed her to overcome her illness and create brilliance at the Rio Olympics.
After retiring, Hui Ruoqi did not stop there, she started a new journey in life. With her husband and children by her side, her life is a little more warm and sweet. But we believe that the fighting spirit that will never admit defeat will continue to lead her to write a legend on a new journey.
