The Year of the Snake is starting off on a very positive note for Linda Chung (鍾嘉欣). With her work schedule planned ahead for the 2013, she also took a much-needed 2-month vacation. After filming Brother’s Keeper <巨輪>, Linda returned to Canada to visit her family and friends. According to insiders, Linda’s rumored boyfriend Philip Ng (伍允龍) also took a 2-week vacation and flew from the United States to Canada to reunite with Linda and also meet her parents during the Lunar New Year. The insider said, “Linda hasn’t taken a vacation in a long time. So she was extremely excited to take some time off and meet up with Philip in Vancouver and also introduce him to her family and relatives. Linda didn’t want to be caught together with Philip by the press so they arrived at the airport on separate days.” The fact that Philip’s popularity does not to compare to Linda’s rising status does not bother her. For the past five years, the pair has maintained a low-key relationship, hoping to keep it under wraps from the public eye. It was not until earlier reports that Race Wong (黃婉佩) has come between them that Linda stepped out to clarify, “How funny! The media likes to report that we’re either dating or we’re breaking up. When in fact, we are doing very well, just like before and as always! Because Race recently broke up (with Jacky Heung (向佐), we spent some time with her to console her. The three of us are good friends!” “My parents have met all my friends and Philip likes to show them around. He looks very strong and manly on the outside, but he is a very caring person. He’s a great guy and fits all my criteria, and he’s patient!” Linda said. When asked if Philip is her ideal husband, Linda just smiled sweetly. For someone who wishes to get married before turning 30, the 28-year-old Linda may have her wish granted very soon! Creds: Next Magazine
