After breaking up with Ron Ng (吴卓羲), Viann Zhang (張馨予) reportedly found a better boyfriend in mainland Chinese actor, Li Chen (李晨), who publicly acknowledged their love and took responsibility in their relationship. Happiness was short-lived, as Viann and Li Chen allegedly broke up after announcing their relationship 20 days ago! A Promising Romance Gone Awry? On August 30, Viann posted a photo of a heart-shaped stone on her Weibo blog. Delighted with Li Chen’s priceless gift, Viann wrote, “He accidentally found this stone and brought it back home. A stone heart shaped by nature’s elements of sand and erosion before acquiring this shape. I hope, like this heart, we can withstand all tests, unlike a glass heart.” Viann’s joyous message led fans to believe that she had finally found everlasting love with Li Chen, who obviously moved her with his attentive gestures. Breakup Spurred by Public Pressure? Li Chen’s very public romance with “Rumor Queen” Viann Zhang was heavily criticized by his fans. The executive management of Huayi Brothers and Feng Xiaogang (馮小剛) cautioned Li Chen to brake his passions, in which the overeager 34-year-old had originally planned to propose marriage to Viann by next year’s Valentine’s Day. The “heart-shaped stone” incident unprecedentedly led to a heavy backlash from Li Chen’s fans. It was reported that Viann and Li Chen had a fierce argument over how to handle the resulting public pressure, which led to their breakup. Li Chen’s Manager Unable to Verify Rumors Regarding Viann and Li Chen’s short-lived romance, his manager indicated that he did not know the truth behind the rumors, as he did not intervene in artists’ personal lives. Uncertain as to where the news had originated, his manager stated that Li Chen had just returned from New York and was currently in Xinjiang to participate in a the two-week Taklimakan Desert Auto and Motorcycle Rally. His manager added that Li Chen has not seen Viann Zhang since the “heart-shaped stone” backlash occurred on August 30. Li Chen Unable to Forget Ex-Flame Other rumors cropped up that Li Chen was unable to forget his ex-girlfriend, Zhao Zhounuo (赵卓娜). As a sensitive person with great emotional depth, Li Chen had reportedly proposed to Zhao Zhuonuo with a king-sized, heart-shaped stone. Although the former lovers have separated, it was speculated that Li Chen was unable to forget Zhao Zhuonuo even after dating Viann Zhang. Creds: Sina
