Bai Lu is dating a younger man, with whom she previously acted in a film, and they were spotted traveling together at the beginning of the year.

Chinese social media is abuzz with speculation of a real-life romance between actress Bai Lu and heartthrob Zeng Shunxi. The pair have been repeatedly spotted together, both on set and in real life, most notably during their trip to South Korea at the beginning of the new year.

A trip to South Korea full of "questions"

According to Sohu, on February 20th (the 4th day of the Lunar New Year), news of Bai Lu and Zeng Shunxi secretly dating became the center of attention. Specifically, on the 3rd day of the Lunar New Year (February 19th), both were spotted together at the airport, preparing to depart for South Korea.

To avoid attracting the attention of paparazzi and fans, the couple employed a rather elaborate "disguise" strategy: Bai Lu: Appeared in completely covered clothing, trying not to reveal her appearance in public. Zeng Shunxi: Traveled with two male colleagues, Chen He Yi and Liang Yong Qi, to reduce suspicion.

Netizens believe that inviting close friends along on trips is a way for the two to create a facade of a "close-knit group of friends," concealing their true romantic relationship while abroad. Previously, the couple was also spotted with Meng Ziyi and Chen Xinhai at Dagushan Temple (Liaoning) to pray for blessings.

From "Lam Giang Tien" to gestures beyond mere colleagues.

The couple's relationship began during the historical drama project "Lin Jiang Xian." After filming wrapped, the relationship between these two, who are three years apart in age, developed rapidly. Their seemingly romantic actions have led fans to question their relationship status.

Zeng Shunxi once drove for three hours to the set of "Mo Li" just to congratulate Bai Lu when her drama reached 10,000 views on online platforms. Notably, at last year's "Screaming Night" event, Bai Lu proactively posted a photo of them together and directly tagged her junior's account. The actress, born in 1994, also surprised everyone by liking almost all the posts and videos pairing her and Zeng Shunxi on social media platforms.

The "handsome man and beautiful woman" couple of the Chinese entertainment industry.

Although Bai Lu is 3 years older than Zeng Shunxi, the two are considered a perfect match. While Bai Lu is currently a top-tier 90s-generation actress with immense popularity, Zeng Shunxi is a promising historical drama heartthrob with outstanding visuals.

Not only are they well-matched in terms of appearance and career, but Zeng Shunxi's family background is also admired by many. According to Sina, the actor is a genuine "second-generation rich." His family owns a large shopping mall, his father is a business partner of Xiaomi's owner, Lei Jun, and his mother heads several diversified businesses.

Waiting for confirmation from the "owner"

Despite evidence of a "real-life romance" flooding social media, both Bai Lu and Zeng Shunxi have remained silent so far. This has only fueled fans' anticipation, because if it's true, the Chinese entertainment industry will have another "power couple" with the pairing of a top actress and a talented young heir.

Whether it's a personal romance or simply a close friendship forged after working together, the undeniable chemistry between the two is incredibly strong. Currently, all eyes are on their next moves, as well as the official launch of the Lam Giang Tien project – which is believed to have brought them closer together.
