In a dramatic sequence of events in Fujian province, southeastern China, a man’s desperate attempt to reclaim what he believed to be his “lucky” dog took an unexpected turn, leading him to crash his friend’s wedding ceremony. Chen, the man at the heart of this unique tale, was not just any ordinary wedding guest, but one on a mission to settle scores, his primary weapon being a T-shirt boldly stating “happy divorce.”
The backstory to this peculiar incident traces back to 18 months prior when Chen made the decision to sell his beloved dog. The buyer, as it turned out, was none other than his close friend, the groom. The reasons behind Chen’s initial choice to part ways with his canine companion remain shrouded in mystery. However, as time went on, Chen began to notice a downturn in his business fortunes.
In his quest for answers and a possible solution to his waning business success, Chen turned to a local fortune teller named Feidian. The spiritual guidance he received was both startling and clear: his decision to sell the dog had brought misfortune upon his business. Believing in the prophecy, Chen approached his friend, requesting the return of the dog, but his pleas fell on deaf ears.
Matters escalated quickly when Chen, feeling wronged and desperate, issued a warning to his friend: he would disrupt the wedding if his wishes weren’t granted. Dismissing this as an empty threat, the groom was taken aback when Chen made true on his promise. In a video that captured the attention of thousands, if not millions, Chen is seen gatecrashing the wedding ceremony. Donning a white T-shirt with the provocatively printed words “happy divorce” in Chinese characters, he engages in a heated confrontation, asserting his claim over the dog, much to the dismay of the wedding attendees.
The situation became so volatile that the police were eventually called to escort an emotional Chen away from the venue. This spectacle quickly became the talk of the town on mainland social media, with users expressing a mix of shock, amusement, and disapproval. Some voiced concerns over Chen’s extreme actions, labeling him as dangerous, while others simply pondered the sanity behind such an act.
Interestingly, this isn’t the first time an animal-related dispute has captured the Chinese public’s imagination. Only a few months prior, a story emerged of a pet owner demanding an apology for her dog during a heated disagreement in a lift, further illustrating the lengths people sometimes go to for their beloved pets.
While the incident certainly offers a comedic and dramatic narrative, it also underscores the profound significance some individuals place on superstitions, and the lengths they might go to rectify perceived wrongs. Whether guided by genuine belief or desperation, Chen’s actions have indelibly etched this wedding day into the annals of unforgettable events.
