JEFFREY XU says his biggest wish now is to “get married quickly” to his girlfriend FELICIA CHIN.
What a difference a year, or two, make. When Felicia Chin, 32, and Jeffrey Xu, 28, played lovers in 2015’s Ch 8 long-form drama Life — Fear Not, they were not yet a couple. But sparks flew on set back then, and by Dec 2015, they were boyfriend and girlfriend. Fast forward to 2017, and the lovebirds are set to play a couple again in upcoming Ch 8 drama Life Less Ordinary. In the 130-ep drama, Felicia plays the meek and submissive girlfriend to Jeffrey’s domineering character who orders her about like his PA. Of course, that couldn’t be further from reality. At the drama’s imaging session, Jeffrey lovingly tucks Felicia’s hair behind her ears as they compare outfits. Then, when Felicia accidentally drops the biscuits she was snacking on during our chat, Jeffrey quickly bends over to pick them up. They call each other “bao bei” (“darling” in Mandarin) and conduct this interview with their hands tightly clasped together.
