The 2024 Chinese Grand Slam, the arena filled with gunpowder, has added a touch of warmth because of the arrival of a family. Ma Long, the "hexagonal warrior" of national table tennis, still showed strong dominance on the field, passed all the way, and finally stood on the stage of the top four.
However, this time, in addition to Ma Long's superb ball skills, there was also the figure of the family of four behind him. The two lovely sons walked up to Ma Long one after the other, and were held by him left and right, but Ma Long's eyes kept following the familiar figure not far away - his wife Xia Lu.
Simple casual clothes, black baseball cap, Xia Lu's dress is low-key and casual, but it still can't hide her outstanding temperament and still beautiful appearance. Time seems to be particularly kind to the woman behind the Olympic champion, and the years have not left too many traces on her face, but have added a mature charm.
This scene envied countless netizens, and everyone sighed: "This is the most beautiful look of love!" "Ma Long is really a winner in life, a double harvest in career and love! ”
Indeed, today's Ma Long, who has the honor of a super slam and a happy family, can be described as a winner in life. However, looking back on the love road of this couple, it was not all smooth sailing, and they also experienced the baptism of storms.
Meet, fall in love, and be unfavorably at the beginning
Back in 2008, Ma Long at that time was still a fledgling national table tennis player, although he had already shown extraordinary talent, but there was still a long way to go from the title of "Dragon Team".
This year, Malone met Xia Lu.
At that time, Xia Lu studied at Hohai University and was the high-profile school flower in the school. The young and beautiful her, and the high-spirited Ma Long on the field, met in this way.
The two quickly fell in love, but this relationship was overshadowed from the beginning.
At that time, Ma Long already had a group of loyal fans, including some fanatical "fan girls". In their eyes, Malone is the perfect idol and an untouchable existence, and no one is worthy of him, let alone falling in love.
Therefore, when the romance between Malone and Xia Lu came out, it immediately aroused strong dissatisfaction among some fans. They regarded Xia Lu as a thorn in the eye, a thorn in the flesh, and all kinds of vicious attacks and abuses poured into this innocent girl like a tide.
Xia Lu, a girl with a cheerful personality, chose to close her social platform account under the impact of online violence and endured all this silently.
In the face of tremendous pressure, Malone has not wavered. With his beloved girlfriend on one side and his supportive fans on the other, he is in a dilemma.
The Rio Olympics are a double harvest of love and career
Time came to 2016, which was a watershed in Ma Long's career and a key turning point in his love path.
At the Rio Olympics, Malone finally ushered in his own highlight moment. He went all the way through the hurdles and finally stood on the stage of the men's singles final. Facing his old opponent Zhang Jike, Ma Long withstood the pressure and swept his opponent with a score of 4:0, winning the Olympic men's singles gold medal for the first time, achieving a major breakthrough in his career.
At that moment, Malone released the excitement in his heart to the fullest, he raised his arms high, looked up to the sky and roared, as if to vent all the pressure and sweat of the years.
However, just as everyone was cheering for Malone's victory, one detail caught everyone's attention. At the award ceremony after the game, Malone made a "heart-to-heart" gesture to the camera.
This inadvertent move caused an uproar on the Internet. Netizens have speculated that who is Ma Long expressing his love to?
Soon, Marlon's romance was exposed. This time, in the face of surging public opinion, Ma Long did not choose to back down, he bravely disclosed his relationship with Xia Lu, and firmly said: "Eight years are not easy, we are fine." ”
Ma Long's words are undoubtedly the best response to those who attacked Xia Lu. He used his actions to announce to the world: Xia Lu is his own woman, and he will protect her with his life.
Ma Long's firmness and responsibility also gave Xia Lu a great sense of security. She knows that no matter what storms she encounters in the future, Malone will be her strongest backing.
Firmly guarded, the eight-year long-distance love run finally came to fruition
In January 2017, Ma Long and Xia Lu got married in a low-key manner, ending an eight-year long-distance love run. In December of the same year, the crystallization of the love between the two was born, and Ma Long was upgraded to become his father.
After marriage, Ma Long still maintains a super high competitive state on the field, he has led the national table tennis team to achieve great results, and his personal honor has also reached a new height - becoming the first super Grand Slam male player in the history of national table tennis.
And Xia Lu gradually faded out of the public eye, and felt at home with her husband and children, creating a warm harbor for Ma Long. She silently supported Ma Long's table tennis career and became his strongest backing.
