Taipei — A wise piece of advice is to take everything with a grain of salt instead of believing in everything people tell you. Chinese actress Ren Su Xi found that out for herself. The 33-year-old had a lot of reservations about working with Jerry Yan when she found out she was acting opposite him in the movie Tempting Hearts. Ren shared during the movie’s premiere that “many” people had told her that Yan was “very difficult to work with and hard to manage”, and that she should be “careful with her words” lest she offends him.
Because of that, Ren admitted that she had a bad impression of her co-star. However, when they started work, things changed and Ren quickly realised that the rumours were untrue, reported 8days.sg.
“He’s an innocent and sincere person who’s very much like a child,” gushed Ren about Jerry Yan. “He’s very well-mannered and warm-hearted, and we became friends very quickly. It’s a blessing to have befriended such an amazing person.”
It is a good thing that all that’s been cleared up. However, one does wonder what Yan has to say about those people who have been talking ill of him.
