Former President Chen Shui-bian's daughter, dentist Chen Hsing-yu, recently spoke about her marital situation with ex-husband Chao Chien-ming. She expressed a past hope that her family of five could travel together after their three children grew up. However, she now laments, "I am waiting for a non-existent person; this person has already changed." Former anchor Liu Han-chu commented that what women cannot overcome is not always money, but sometimes the feeling of needing to "vent this anger." Liu wrote on Facebook that once a woman realizes she no longer loves her partner and decides to end the marriage, a smart and wealthy woman like Chen should simply move on. However, Liu noted that Chao Chien-ming crossed a line regarding child support funds, prompting Chen Hsing-yu to fiercely confront him. Liu cautioned that many of Chen's suspicious statements are risky, as she herself revealed divorce details first. Liu believes that even if Chao Chien-ming presented a document, it would violate a confidentiality agreement. Ultimately, neither party would likely spend time suing each other over the 100 million yuan. Liu suggested Chen Hsing-yu's goal is to completely vent her anger, likening it to the "double, tenfold, or hundredfold payback" seen in the Japanese drama "Hanzawa Naoki." Liu pointed out that the public sees the news, but the individuals are living their lives, making this emotional release worth 100 million yuan. The public's focus on the ongoing criticism of Chao Chien-ming, Chen Hsing-yu's legal team's efforts to defend her image, and public support all contribute to this sentiment.
I am waiting for a non-existent person; this person has already changed.
