1. In 1983, Zhu Liqian, the daughter of a wealthy Malaysian family, watched the martial arts drama "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" for the first time, and the villain Andy Lau in the play was deeply attracted by her heroic and upright posture.
Although Andy Lau plays a negative role in the play, his majestic and chic image makes Zhu Liqian fascinated, and she tirelessly follows this idol on the big screen.
As the jewel of the richest family in Malaysia, Zhu Liqian has been pampered by her parents since she was a child and lives a luxurious and luxurious life. Her parents hope that she can marry into a wealthy family and continue to live a pampered life.
But Zhu Liqian is full of yearning for the entertainment industry, and at the age of 19, she officially stepped into the ranks of graphic models and started her acting career. Despite her illustrious family background, Zhu Liqian does not put on the shelf of the valley master at all, on the contrary, she is very friendly and polite.
In 1988, under the introduction of a friend, Zhu Liqian met her idol Andy Lau for the first time. When Andy Lau walked into sight, Zhu Liqian's whole body was trembling, she had been yearning for this moment for too long.
Facing the handsome side face of her idol, Zhu Liqian felt that she was like a dream, and she couldn't believe that this was a reality. On the contrary, Andy Lau also has a deep impression of the lady in front of him.
The two started talking at some point, and the topic gradually shifted from life to each other's hobbies. Zhu Liqian impressed Andy Lau with her gentle and knowledgeable temperament.
Second, when saying goodbye, Zhu Liqian cautiously asked to leave Andy Lau's contact information, and secretly hoped to keep in touch with this idol. Soon after they met, Zhu Liqian made a shocking decision - she decided to leave her hundreds of millions of family assets in Malaysia and go to Hong Kong alone to study beauty.
On the surface, she is going to learn beauty skills, but in fact, she has only one purpose, that is, to be able to get close to her long-cherished idol Andy Lau in person. When she was in Malaysia, Zhu Liqian was just an ordinary graphic model, and she was still far away from her dream idol.
She longs to be close to Andy Lau, listen to him, and witness everything about him. It's not enough to just read the occasional news in newspapers and magazines. In this way, Zhu Liqian came to the strange city of Hong Kong alone.
As the daughter of a rich family, she has been pampered since she was a child and covets a comfortable life. But in order to be close to her idol, she gave it all up without regrets. Leaving her familiar hometown and coming to an unfamiliar environment, her heart was uneasy but also full of expectations.
During this time in Hong Kong, Zhu Liqian worked tirelessly. She secretly observed Andy Lau's whereabouts and paid attention to which beauty salons he frequented. Sure enough, with her patience, she finally saw Andy Lau appear at the door of a beauty salon once.
Zhu Liqian's heart was pounding, and she hurriedly concealed her inner excitement, pretending to be a passerby and passing by Andy Lau. With persistent following, Zhu Liqian gradually approached the life trajectory of her sweetheart.
Sometimes she will deliberately "happen" to meet Andy Lau at a certain intersection, and when she looks at him briefly, she will convey her heart to him with her eyes. In this way, with Zhu Liqian's unremitting efforts, the relationship between the two finally became intimate.
Although the relationship between the two has gradually become closer, it has been difficult for Zhu Liqian and Andy Lau to fall in love in the past few years. As a well-known superstar, Andy Lau bluntly told Zhu Liqian at the beginning, "My profession is destined that I can't make my relationship public, and it will be very hard to be my girlfriend."
3. But Zhu Liqian replied categorically "I do", determined to go through this rather difficult emotional road with her sweetheart. In this way, the two started an underground romance.
Whenever Andy Lau comes to Hong Kong, Zhu Liqian has to temporarily live in the home of his friend Pan Hongbin, and under the cover of Pan Hongbin, the two can meet each other. Caution is a must, and the slightest negligence will be photographed by the ubiquitous paparazzi.
The biggest difficulty is that the two "get together less and leave more". As a popular superstar, Andy Lau's career is booming, the announcement is full, and there is only one month of rest a year. After deducting the days spent with his parents, he and Zhu Liqian can only really get along for about two weeks.
In order to avoid criticism, the two had to be cautious and kept incognito for 10 years. In 1989 and 1992, Zhu Liqian was photographed by the paparazzi appearing at Andy Lau's residence, but the two remained silent about it and continued to maintain this low-key relationship silently.
Zhu Liqian spent 10 years in love and lived a life like a "spy". She is always cautious, for fear of being found out about her relationship with Andy Lau. As soon as there is a stir, she immediately escapes into the empty door, avoiding all possible opportunities for exposure.
Although it is difficult, in order to be able to go to the end with her beloved, Zhu Liqian is willing to give all this. After all difficulties, Zhu Liqian and Andy Lau finally officially registered their marriage in 2008.
But as soon as this relationship, which has been hidden for nearly 20 years, was made public, it caused a lot of doubts and criticism from the outside world. In 2009, the two, who had been careful to maintain their relationship, had to face reality.
That year, Zhu Liqian's father died, and as a wife, she naturally had to accompany Andy Lau to attend the funeral. At that time, a large number of reporters appeared in Zhu Liqian's father's funeral hall one after another and took pictures of them.
Fourth, in the face of the paparazzi's wolf-like camera, Andy Lau did not hide it this time, resolutely hugged Zhu Liqian, and said to reporters: "This is my wife Zhu Liqian, we have registered our marriage in 2008."
This simple sentence finally unveiled the mystery of the relationship between the two. After years of doubts, the outside world finally got official confirmation that the relationship between Andy Lau and Zhu Liqian is indeed real.
But what followed was an overwhelming wave of doubts and criticism. Some people pointed out that Andy Lau was irresponsible and a "scumbag". Because before that, his ex-girlfriend Yu Kexin had published a book revealing a love history between the two of them, which included some intimate details and intimate photos.
Now he has suddenly made his new marriage public, which has made many people question his character. In fact, it is precisely because of Zhu Liqian's considerations that she has been incognito for many years - on the one hand, it is for Andy Lau's acting career, for fear that it will be too high-profile and affect his image on the screen; On the other hand, he is worried that his fanatical fans will have extreme behavior, which is not good for Zhu Liqian.
In the face of the storm of public opinion, Zhu Liqian faced it calmly and did not explain much. She knows that everything she gives is out of sincere love, and she is never criticized by the unexpected world. Andy Lau didn't explain much, but chose to remain silent.
He believes that as long as the two truly love each other, there is nothing that cannot be overcome. In 2012, 46-year-old Zhu Liqian gave birth to a baby daughter for Andy Lau, which was the biggest sacrifice and sacrifice in her life.
Elderly mothers are very likely to face life-threatening dangers, but Zhu Liqian has no regrets, just to be able to keep the crystallization of this love by her side forever. The process of pregnancy is torture and hardship.
Every time there are complications in Zhu Liqian's body, Andy Lau pinched a cold sweat. As a husband, he saw his lover pay so much for himself, and he felt extremely guilty in his heart.
Fifth, he began to reflect on whether he should give Zhu Liqian a grand wedding, not just a wedding letter. But whenever he wanted to speak, Zhu Liqian would stop his words with warm eyes.
In her eyes, being able to spend the rest of her life with her sweetheart is the greatest happiness. She never felt that she was in a humble position in the relationship, nor was she sad and regretful that she was missing a wedding.
Zhu Liqian's love for Andy Lau is heartfelt and never shaken by the superficial form. She knew what a remarkable man her husband was, and how lucky she was to be in love with him.
As a wife, Zhu Liqian just wants to be by his side and become a solid harbor and support in his life. In fact, it is with Zhu Liqian's selfless support and tolerance that Andy Lau can move forward bravely in his acting career and stand out from the crowd.
Looking back on the vicissitudes of the past few decades, even though the two have suffered a lot of criticism from the outside world, in the end, Zhu Liqian's sincere dedication was exchanged for Andy Lau's heartfelt affirmation: "She loves me more than me."
Hearing this praise, Zhu Liqian just smiled indifferently. She has never asked for any affirmation from Andy Lau, as long as she can stay with him for a lifetime, it is enough. Now she is very happy to be so highly praised by her husband.
Yes, this love has long been deeply imprinted in her blood and bones, without regrets and never erased. Zhu Liqian, who seems to be ordinary, actually has tenacity and perseverance that are difficult for ordinary people to reach.
From a pampered daughter of a wealthy Malaysian family, to going to Hong Kong to follow her sweetheart, and then to being incognito for decades, her love for Andy Lau has never wavered.
6. At the beginning of their acquaintance, Zhu Liqian gave up her privileged life in her hometown in order to get close to her idol Andy Lau and came to an unfamiliar Hong Kong city alone. As the daughter of a wealthy family, she has been cared for by her parents in a greenhouse-like environment since she was a child, and it is human nature to covet comfort.
But Zhu Liqian left all this without regrets, just to be able to follow the love of her heart. In the following decades, Zhu Liqian suffered even more bitterness. In order to avoid being tracked by the paparazzi, she had to live incognito and live a life like a "spy".
Even after many years of marriage, the two have never held a grand wedding. But in the face of all kinds of doubts and criticism, Zhu Liqian never had the slightest complaint, she understood that everything she did was out of sincere love for Andy Lau.
Even if the marriage suffered a storm of public opinion after it was made public, Zhu Liqian was still able to put it aside and be indifferent. She knows very well that all kinds of suspicions from the outside world cannot shake the sincere feelings between the two.
In the depths of her heart, there is only endless love and attachment to Andy Lau. Perhaps it is precisely because of this dedication that Zhu Liqian can achieve 100% trust and respect for her husband.
Even though his career is extravagant, Andy Lau still regards Zhu Liqian as the most important pillar of his life. Never ostentatious to show off her wealth, Zhu Liqian is like a breeze, gentle and virtuous, dedicated to the family, and is Andy Lau's most solid harbor.
Years of precipitation, perseverance finally won love. Zhu Liqian used her life to interpret what great love is. In the face of hardship, she never flinched; In the face of doubts, she has always been calm.
It is this perseverance and tenacity that ultimately brings happiness to life.
