On September 13, 2024, Wu Jinyan and Hongyao announced their marriage. According to Chinese media, Yu Zheng - the man behind the success of the palace drama "Story of Yanxi Palace" revealed an interesting story that Wu Jinyan and Hongyao have been in love for 7 years. This coincides with the couple's first time acting together in a movie in 2018.
In 2018, Ngo Can Ngon and Hong Nghiao got to know each other through co-starring in the movie "Story of Yanxi Palace".
On February 25, 2019, the two stars were spotted by netizens on the island of Bali, sparking rumors of "fake love, real love". After that, many photos of Wu Jinyan and Hong Yao wearing couple clothes were also found by Chinese fans.
Ngo Can Ngon quickly denied the dating rumors. The actress's team said that the two are just colleagues and good friends. Vu Chinh also said that "rumors are the price of being famous" - meaning that the couple's fame also comes with gossip and baseless rumors.
On April 10, 2019, Hong Nghiao mistakenly posted a photo with Ngo Can Ngon, and only discovered it 23 minutes later to delete the post.
However, Vu Chinh said that it was a group photo taken backstage and explained that Hong Nghiao accidentally posted the wrong photo. However, at that time, the audience had doubts about this.
On December 2, 2020, paparazzi captured photos of Wu Jinyan and Hong Yao entering the same building. Dating rumors flared up once again.
Vu Chinh denied this, saying that his "chickens" were all at the Giang Nam hotel during filming.
On July 25, 2023, the paparazzi again released news that Wu Jinyan and Hong Yao were living together. This time, neither Yu Zheng nor the two actors responded.
It is known that during the time she was in love with Hong Nghiao, Ngo Can Ngon experienced ups and downs in her career. Her name rose thanks to the movie "Story of Yanxi Palace", but then her reputation gradually faded due to choosing inappropriate movies and scripts. It was not until 2024 that she became famous again with "Mo Vu Van Gian".
The fact that Vu Chinh repeatedly denied that the couple was in love, and then later admitted, was seen as an act to protect the couple's reputation. Because if they were to publicly date, the two would easily be scrutinized by the audience, leading to unnecessary noise.
