After Michelle Chen and Chen Xiao announced their divorce simultaneously, netizens went wild with rumors that Chen Xiao has a new flame, Mao Xiaotong, who also played the role of 'Guo Fu' in the love-defining work 'The Romance of the Condor Heroes' of Chen Xiao and Michelle Chen. However, neither party has responded so far. Interestingly, at Chen Xiao's wedding, Mao Xiaotong's only publicly announced ex-boyfriend, Chen Xiang, was the best man. But back then, Chen Xiang was allegedly caught in an affair by Mao Xiaotong, leading to an ugly breakup. Now, netizens are eagerly gossiping about this complex 'four-corner relationship.'The photo shows Chen Xiao, rumored to be in a relationship with Mao Xiaotong after becoming single, during their collaboration on 'The Clouds of the Silk Road.'Looking back at Mao Xiaotong's past love life, besides the boyfriend she dated when she first started her career, the only publicly announced one is Chen Xiang, with very few rumors otherwise. She once shared on a variety show that she follows a long-lasting love route, having only two relationships that spanned 9 years, leading netizens to view her as a 'private life pure stream' in the entertainment industry.
Mao Xiaotong met Chen Xiang, who is a year younger, during the filming of 'Ladies' House' in 2013, and they fell deeply in love. It wasn't until 2015 that the two posted a hand-holding photo on Weibo and tagged each other, officially announcing their relationship. However, in October 2017, Mao Xiaotong suddenly wrote on Weibo, 'Never thought this scene would appear before my eyes.' At the time, some netizens thought it was a proposal, but unexpectedly, Chen Xiang later announced, 'The relationship initially began because of me, as a man, I failed to protect Xiaotong and caused her much harm in the relationship,' confirming their breakup.
After the incident, Chen Xiang was first suspected of cheating and betraying the relationship, while host Sun Xiaoxiao unexpectedly supported him, criticizing Mao Xiaotong for speaking out and causing Chen Xiang to become the target of accusations. Fans of both sides argued, leading to Mao Xiaotong being cyberbullied, insulted, and boycotted by Chen Xiang's fans, which also affected her career.
Always silent about the breakup reasons, Mao Xiaotong finally could not bear it anymore in 2018. In an interview, she stood out to accuse Chen Xiang's fans of cyberbullying behavior that also involved her family. She also revealed that on the day she discovered Chen Xiang's infidelity, actress Jiang Kaitong was lurking suspiciously outside Chen Xiang's apartment elevator to enter. The same day, Mao Xiaotong hurriedly moved out of Chen Xiang's apartment. After the video was released, many believed Chen Xiang was caught in the act of cheating by Mao Xiaotong, leading to his career downfall.
