Chinese actress Yi Yizi (formerly known as Yi Yizi) recently spoke candidly during a livestream about her past relationship with Esther Yu Shuxin. She admitted that the two were friends before either of them became famous, often playing badminton together, taking dance classes, eating meals, and taking photos. They even followed each other on private accounts. Yi Yizi revealed that later, due to an “indescribable, pretty disgusting” incident, she realized that perhaps she had never really been considered a true friend by Esther, which ultimately led to the end of their friendship and the deletion of all contact information. Her comments quickly sparked heated discussion online.
As the incident continued to ferment, Yi Yizi made further revelations in a livestream the next day, emphasizing that this “disgusting thing” happened before Esther Yu was famous, and insisting that it was absolutely true, as the male party involved had personally admitted it to her. She even boldly declared in the livestream that she has always acted righteously throughout her life, whether in love or in friendship, and has never betrayed anyone, bluntly saying, “I've never touched a friend’s boyfriend, whether an ex or a current one.” Her heavily suggestive comments instantly triggered netizens’ speculation about the identity of the “male party.”
Facing netizens comparing the two’s current achievements, Yi Yizi readily acknowledged that Esther Yu is indeed “prettier than me, more famous than me, has more traffic than me,” but then retorted, “Will she live a few years longer? I don’t care.” She explained that she hadn’t originally planned to bring up the incident, but only mentioned it in passing after seeing someone in the comments ask about it—and never expected to be besieged by Esther Yu’s fans in DMs, accusing her of “clout-chasing.” She lamented that if she truly wanted to ride on Esther’s fame, she could be trending every day, adding that although she’s afraid of criticism, she really doesn’t want any trouble either.
