1. "I'm sad" - the end of a fairytale marriage
"When will Daddy be back?"
An Yixuan, who lives in a low-key life in Taiwan, can only prevaricate with "Dad is on a business trip" in the face of his young son and daughter.
But everyone knows that the man who once stood by her side, gave her a diamond ring, and held the wedding of the century may not have the opportunity to "return from a business trip" until he is 60 years old.
As recently as November 28, Macau's Court of Final Appeal rejected Chen's appeal and upheld the sentence of 13 years in prison.
Although the fine was reduced from 2.4 billion Hong Kong dollars to 1.8 billion, for An Yixuan, the gap of 600 million could not make up for the scars in her heart at all.
The former "Mrs. Kuo" is now raising two children alone, and her life is so low-key that she has almost stopped social media. No amount of tears can be exchanged for the once glamorous self.
2. From the "wedding of the century" to the "crisis of the century", the disillusionment of a wealthy dream
In 2017, An Yixuan married Chen Ronglian, a wealthy businessman in Macau, and this wedding caused a sensation in the entire entertainment industry.
The lavish venues, extravagant sets, and star-studded line-up of guests make it a fairytale of happiness.
After marriage, An Yixuan faded out of the showbiz and taught his husband and children at home. Her social account is full of luxury goods from her husband and the growth of her children. She smiled sweetly, and everyone envied her "winner in life" appearance.
But who would have thought that such "happiness" is only the appearance after all.
In January 2022, Chen Ronglian was arrested on 83 counts involving illegal gambling, fraud, money laundering and other crimes, and An Yixuan's life fell from heaven to hell.
Since then, An Yixuan has never been happy.
3. Behind the non-visit to prison, is it disappointment or helplessness?
Her husband has been in prison for nearly 3 years, and An Yixuan has not visited him so far. After this news was exposed, netizens talked about it. Some people say she is "too cold", while others think she is "too smart".
Is it apathy? Probably not.
Insiders revealed that Chen Ronglian mentioned his family in court many times, and also said that he and An Yixuan have always kept in touch. In order not to let the children know the truth, An Yixuan even lied to them that "Dad is just on a business trip".
How can outsiders understand the hardships of a mother?
But after this verdict, the wind of public opinion began to change. Someone dug up the old news that Chen Ronglian transferred his property to his ex-wife and daughter in his early years, pointing out that he "affected An Yixuan".
More netizens sighed: In this marriage, the most hurt is not Chen Ronglian, but An Yixuan.
Perhaps, An Yixuan chose not to visit the prison because he was afraid of disappointment and the attention of the media. After all, she used to be the glamorous "Princess An", but now she has to keep a low profile so that she even goes out carefully.
4, from "matchmaker" to "abandoned pawn", the truth of friendship in the entertainment industry
When it comes to An Yixuan, we have to mention her "plastic sisterhood" with Big S.
Back then, An Yixuan was not only the "matchmaker" of Da S and Wang Xiaofei, but also single-handedly contributed to this relationship. But who would have thought that after Big S got married, An Yixuan didn't even receive a wedding invitation.
What's even more ironic is that at An Yixuan's birthday party that year, Wang Xiaofei and Da S met for the first time. At that time, she was busy greeting guests, completely unaware that her "good friends" and "long-time friends" were already chatting on the balcony.
Later, Big S took the initiative to invite Wang Xiaofei to attend his birthday party, and the relationship between the two quickly warmed up, and the next time they met, they got married directly.
When the media asked about this, An Yixuan only said lightly: "I am a matchmaker at best." But that year, she got drunk more than any other year.
Friendship in the entertainment industry is, after all, a game of interests. An Yixuan may have seen through it a long time ago, so this time in the face of Chen Ronglian's matter, she chose to shut up and choose to be silent.
5. From Kuotai to raising children alone, where should her future go?
43-year-old An Yixuan is now raising two children alone.
When she picked up her children to school, she was photographed still using Chen Ronglian's favorite "Tinker Bell" umbrella. The details revealed that she may not have completely let go of this marriage.
But the reality is cruel. Chen Ronglian was sentenced to 13 years, and by the time he was released from prison, the child may have grown up. This means that An Yixuan must go on alone on the road ahead.
Will she make a comeback and regain her acting career? Or continue to retire and be an ordinary mother?
Netizens are arguing about this, but what is certain is that this former "wealthy man", whether it is marriage or career, is no longer possible to go back to the past.
6. Ending: Who can see through the truth of marriage?
Looking back at An Yixuan's story, perhaps everyone has different feelings in their hearts.
Some people say that she is pitiful, she gave everything for the family, but in exchange for such an ending; Some people also say that she is smart and knows how to stop losses in time to strive for the greatest peace for herself and her children.
But who can really see through marriage?
As the old saying goes: "If a person drinks water, he knows the warmth and coldness." After the halo of the wealthy family fades, whether An Yixuan can stand up again may be the real highlight of this story.
And we, the onlookers, can only sigh after dinner: love in the entertainment industry is a big gamble after all.
