Trending: Viral Clip Evidence of 2003-Born Pageant Queen Stealing Best Friend’s CEO Husband, Secretly Giving Birth Out of Wedlock Last Year
Behind her “sisterly” facade, this beauty queen backstabbed her close friend to steal her husband.
On April 28, Sohu reported that the Chinese entertainment industry is reeling from a video providing evidence that businessman Yang Zi had an affair and an illegitimate child with Miss Universe Li Xuanzi during his marriage to star Huang Shengyi. Paparazzi claim they captured footage of Yang Zi escorting Li Xuanzi and a baby to a postpartum confinement center in April 2025. Notably, the child was born just three months after the media CEO finalized his divorce from Huang Shengyi.

According to C-biz sources, the pageant queen born in 2003 successfully “ousted” Huang Shengyi from the wealthy family thanks to her pregnancy. Recently, Yang Zi reportedly introduced Li Xuanzi and the baby to his 91-year-old mother. Since having a child with the media tycoon, Miss Universe China 2021 has been living the life of a true “socialite,” draped in luxury brands from head to toe and frequently posting from high-end travel destinations.

A Betrayal of “Sisterhood”
Li Xuanzi was known to be close “sworn sisters” with Huang Shengyi. Despite being crowned Miss Universe China 2021 and finishing as runner-up in the 2020 Miss Tourism Fashion International, her career remained stagnant. In late 2023, seeing her junior struggling to find stable work, Huang Shengyi brought Li Xuanzi into her husband’s company, hiring her as an assistant for Yang Zi’s livestream sales. Unexpectedly, Li Xuanzi used the opportunity to get close to and eventually steal her senior’s husband. At the time, the marriage between Huang Shengyi and Yang Zi was already fractured; they had been separated since 2022, though the Kung Fu Hustle star was still trying to salvage the relationship.
In 2024, Huang Shengyi suggested Yang Zi join the reality show Goodbye Lover in hopes he would change his ways. However, during the show, Yang Zi’s infidelity was exposed. He openly took late-night calls from Li Xuanzi despite his wife being nearby and cameras rolling. Realizing her husband had moved on and had no intention of reconciling, a heartbroken Huang Shengyi finally let go.
On Weibo, netizens slammed Yang Zi and Li Xuanzi’s behavior. Many mocked the tycoon for dating a woman young enough to be his daughter; Li Xuanzi is reportedly one year younger than Yang Zi’s eldest daughter. (Before Huang Shengyi, Yang Zi had a first wife and a daughter born in 2002). While many pitied Huang Shengyi for being “repaid with ingratitude” by her friend, others argued this was “karma,” as she was once the third party who broke up Yang Zi’s first marriage to Tao Hong. That past scandal permanently tarnished Huang Shengyi’s “pure girl” image.
The Dark Side: Huang Shengyi’s Humiliation in a Wealthy Family
Huang Shengyi and Yang Zi married secretly in 2007 but did not go public until 2015. It was only after giving birth to a son to carry on the Yang family line that the famous beauty was elevated from “mistress” status to “legal wife.” Facing a public boycott due to the affair scandal, the actress withdrew from the industry, only returning in 2020.
In October 2024, Huang Shengyi exposed her superficial and exhausting marriage on national television. On Goodbye Lover, the “White Snake” actress bitterly described her relationship with her billionaire husband as messy and distant. She felt suffocated and controlled, stating that Yang Zi constantly belittled, pressured, and scolded her. Yang Zi had no qualms about calling his wife “uneducated” and “stupid” on air. In one shocking image, Huang Shengyi was even seen kneeling to wash her husband’s feet.
The actress likened their relationship to “business partners rather than husband and wife.” According to her, Yang Zi always prioritized friends over family—a fact Yang Zi himself admitted. Furthermore, she revealed he owned seven phones and forbade her from touching them. To reach him, she had to message eight different group chats. Her entire life was controlled by him; at one point, she was forced to film six movies a year alongside constant events and livestreams. When she expressed exhaustion, Yang Zi ignored her.
Listening to Huang Shengyi pour out her suppressed grievances, Yang Zi responded with harsh words that stunned her: “To be honest, my wife has no value in my eyes. I can only say she has a good life but doesn’t know how to enjoy it.” This accumulation of resentment eventually extinguished her love and trust. After the episodes aired, Yang Zi’s treatment of his wife sparked fierce controversy. Netizens labeled him a “toxic man” who used his wife. Despite the lingering dislike for Huang Shengyi’s past, many viewers now fully support her decision to divorce.
