Sun Li reveals Deng Chao’s “bad habit” and dispels divorce rumors with traditional Chinese wisdom

Chinese celebrity Sun Li married Deng Chao in 2010 and they have two children, creating a happy family of four. Sun Li, who often shares snippets of her life, revealed on Weibo on the 28th that Deng Chao has a “bad habit,” but her seemingly “complaining” post actually turned out to be a subtle display of affection, blinding netizens with their sweet marital moments.

On the 28th, Sun Li posted on Weibo about Deng Chao’s “bad habit,” writing, “Every time I sit down at the dinner table, he starts playing background music, then looks at our two children and starts sighing, lamenting how fast time flies.” Sun Li mentioned that she would be influenced by the atmosphere, “always empathizing with him, then starting to tear up moved, eyes locked, deeply emotional exchanges leading to a hug.”

After detailing this, Sun Li humorously mentioned the challenges of her daily routine and family meals, self-deprecatingly saying, “Why bother with all this?” accompanied by three crying face emojis, conveying a mix of emotions.

Sun Li’s words may seem like complaints about Deng Chao, but in reality, they showcase the couple’s affectionate daily life.

Netizens offered humorous suggestions to Sun Li: “Next time, lock him in a room by himself.” “Why not cancel his music subscription?” Some even joked, “Darling Deng, you really love drama,” “Mr. Deng is not only a romantic but also good at stirring emotions,” “Mr. Deng really loves to cry.”

The post also elicited a response from Deng Chao: “Sorry about that, my bad, oops (‘亞比啊囧囧’ is a Chinese internet slang term expressing surprise or awkwardness). “Can you protect my privacy a bit?”

Earlier, rumors of Deng Chao and Sun Li divorcing would surface intermittently, with any small speculation about the couple being blown out of proportion, even with minimal interactions on Weibo leading to divorce rumors. However, the couple remained unfazed, occasionally posting photos together to debunk rumors.

Recently, Deng Chao’s and Sun Li’s assistant posted, stating that he spends time daily dealing with various online rumors, including ones that seem obviously fabricated but still find believers.

The assistant emphasized that Sun Li’s online traces of life are actually their true daily routines. Despite being complete opposites in personality, Sun Li and Deng Chao get along exceptionally well when together. Deng Chao, a lively Jiangxi native, has transitioned to eating healthier cuisine to match Shanghai native Sun Li’s taste; Deng Chao, a night owl, now adheres to a regular bedtime before 10 p.m. for Sun Li’s sake. Sun Li, introverted and calm, has even embraced Deng Chao’s humor online by sharing quirky faces and playful banter… They are both willing to change for each other.

Sun Li often shares photos of herself with her children on Weibo, taking them to the countryside to experience life, letting the kids dig bamboo shoots, and feed the animals. She also shares funny stories with her children about her role in the TV series “Empresses in the Palace.” Her sister “Xiaohua” jokes that in the show, their mother is “soft-hearted” but in reality, she’s “sharp-tongued yet kind-hearted,” endearing qualities.

The assistant also revealed intimate details of Deng Chao and Sun Li’s affectionate relationship, mentioning that Deng Chao is a romantic person who, even with a short three to four days off, spends two days on the road just to be in Shanghai with his family. Sun Li, on the other hand, is a practical home-maker who efficiently manages daily affairs and respects her partner in major decisions.

Furthermore, Deng Chao playfully warns the children in jest, “This is my wife, don’t make her angry,” and Sun Li advises the children, “Dad has been working hard lately, let him rest well.” They never blame each other when faced with difficulties, debunking the nonexistent rumors of their relationship breaking down or heading towards divorce.

As the assistant to Deng Chao and Sun Li, despite knowing their relationship is strong and their family is happy, the persistent divorce rumors seem to have irked them enough to issue this lengthy clarification debunking the false reports.
