Recently, the 10th wedding anniversary celebration with a simple photo of two actresses Lam Tam Nhu and Hoac Kien Hoa became a hot topic of discussion, entering the top of popular searches just a few hours later on Chinese social networks.
The comments were filled with blessings, many netizens also expressed: "It turns out that simple romance can truly win over time".
The 10th wedding anniversary is called tin wedding, symbolizing a marriage that is flexible, persistent and strong enough to overcome the challenges of time.
Lam Tam Nhu - Hoac Kien Hoa are always the most noticed couple in Chinese showbiz. They are both actors who receive the love of a large audience.
However, this marriage did not start smoothly as in the photo.
In 2005, Ruby Lin and Wallace Huo met when they co-starred in the movie "Subway". For the next 10 years, they only maintained a friendship and each person was busy with their own career.
On May 20, 2016, the two suddenly publicly announced their relationship, and just over 2 months later they held a wedding in Bali (Indonesia).
Getting married too quickly made their wedding the focus of public opinion. Especially, on the wedding day, a photo recording Hoắc Kiến Hoa's rather serious face was widely spread, causing many people to speculate that he reluctantly got married or was forced to marry.
In the following years, rumors of a broken marriage continuously appeared. Before the rumors, the couple always maintained a consistent attitude: not answering interviews to explain, not posting refutation articles and also not taking advantage of arguments to attract attention.
After getting married, their choices are also different from many couples in the entertainment industry.
After her daughter "Little Pig" was born in January 2017, Huo Jianhua quietly adjusted her work focus, significantly reducing the number of film projects to spend more time with her family, creating conditions for Ruby Lin to focus on developing her film production career.
People in the industry revealed that the couple had an agreement to rotate jobs to reduce work, so that in important stages of their children, there is always at least one person by their side to take care of them. This "rotating at home to take care of children" model is considered quite rare in the art world, where couples often have to be apart due to schedules.
What is more precious is that they always keep a clear line between work and private life.
The two do not participate in reality TV shows for husband and wife, do not often appear together in commercial activities and rarely actively share family life with the public.
Their sweet moments are mainly recorded accidentally. These everyday moments help many people feel more clearly about their marriage.
Once the media caught the whole family going to the night market. Wallace Huo sat down to wipe the corners of his daughter's mouth, while Ruby Lin gently wiped the stain on her daughter's face with the hem of her shirt. That simple image is no different from any other normal family.
Wallace Huo also regularly takes his children to school. Once, he accidentally met another parent. This person was extremely surprised to meet the actor, asked to take a photo with him and posted it on social networks to share the joy.
Lam Tam Nhu once shared in the program "Goodbye My Love 5" about how the couple resolved conflicts: "If there is an argument, we will wait for our daughter to sleep before talking to resolve the issue, absolutely not letting our daughter witness the scene of parents arguing".
That short sharing is seen as the key to helping their marriage be sustainable: respecting each other, always accompanying and willing to adjust the pace of life for the other person as well as the family.
10 years is long enough time to verify a marriage that always lives under the spotlight and public opinion.
While many famous couples turn marriage into a tool to attract attention, Ruby Lin and Wallace Huo choose a quieter path: not ostentatious, not noisy but persistent.
The 10th wedding anniversary photo taken under the sunset does not have magnificent jewelry, no lavish parties, only two adults still looking at each other with warm eyes as in the beginning.
Perhaps that is the most truthful and beautiful answer for their 10 years of marriage.
