A young woman in China threatened to jump off a river after breaking up with her older boyfriend who left her without any explanation.
The story made the rounds of China social media recently, baffling netizens how a young girl could fall so hard for a man old enough to be her father.
The Shanghaiist said in its article the young lady was found emotionally distressed and was ready to throw herself into the Han River in Xiangyang City a few days ago. She was eventually rescued by passers-by who took her to a police station for questioning.
However, the police were shocked after the woman named Xiao Yun started pouring out her heart, revealing what drove her to try to end her life.
She said she was searching for her lover surnamed Liu, who is believed to be a migrant worker.
“None of you can save me, you can only find him, if you have any compassion, you will help me find him,” Shanghaiist quoted her as telling the police.
Xiao Yun is in her 20s, while she claimed her lover is around 50 years old.
The distraught woman said she is willing to live with Liu and didn’t care about what her family or the society would think about their May-December love affair.
The man is allegedly divorced from his first wife and promised to marry her. But their relationship turned sour since Spring Festival when the man suddenly became indifferent and started avoiding her without explanation.
During one of their last conversations, the woman threatened to jump off a river if they broke up. However, this warning had no effect on her lover and he continued to ignore her, eventually leading to their separation.
The girl in despair went to the river as promised before calling her boyfriend one last time. But apparently, he never took the call.
The police, intrigued by her story, tried to investigate. They were even more shocked after finding out that Liu was not in his 50s, but is actually 69-years-old.
They were able to contact the man and he told them that his former girlfriend’s attempt to end her life was just a way to cheat him out of his money.
Liu also admitted he never liked the girl in the first place, but agreed he will meet with her for the last time.
