The actress was discovered stating in an interview that she would prefer Wang Hongyi’s Chishui Fenglong to Deng Wei’s Tushan Jing in real life, which sparked a bit of an internet spat between Yang Zi and Deng Wei fans. She responded, “I will still think Fenglong is the most interesting if you’re asking me to choose.” It should be recalled that Tushan Jing and Xiao Yao are the drama’s official couple. But in Lost You Forever, Deng Wei’s character Jing marries his fiance, who gives birth to “their” child.
Yang Zi’s Interpretation of Her Male Leads’ Personas
Why then is Fenglong? According to Yang Zi, in one’s opinion, who wouldn’t pick a gorgeous, focused man with a strong family background over someone without a wonderful personality? She said, “Who doesn’t like a sunny and adorable boy?” She went on to explain each of the male characters before this. “Power is everything to Cang Xuan,” she remarked. Xiang Liu sees it from a different perspective than Xiao Yao, and it’s also his cause. Regarding Tushan Jing, he’s a great guy to live with, but he also shows a great deal of family loyalty.
Reaction
Fans of Deng Wei retaliated against Yang Zi after he responded, leading to online attacks on both sides. The actor was definitely the focus of a lot of attention from Lost You Forever. However, some of Deng Wei’s fans believe Yang Zi is purposefully attempting to ruin their couple pairing with her remarks and preventing him from taking advantage of the benefits of being in such a well-known hit drama when the second installment comes out, given that the actress has stated that she prefers Fenglong as a partner in real life.
As it happens, many of his supporters also say that they don’t give a damn about who she chooses because, as Yang Zi, it’s her decision, not Xiao Yao’s. Their main disagreement, though, stemmed from her taking the luxury of reading her co-stars’ characters “incorrectly” (as some would argue). Supporters of Deng Wei believe it’s inappropriate for her to characterize him as just someone you could live with when he’s so much more than that. They further dispute that he always believes what his family says, claiming that because he repeatedly turned down his grandmother in the play, he was duped into getting married. It is unfair to her co-stars for her to interpret his role the way she did for them.
