✨🇨🇳Love at first sight is not a common occurrence, but that's the true story of Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife Peng Liyuan.
At the end of 1986, a friend of the singer Peng Liyuan wanted to introduce her to Xi Jinping, who was a vice mayor of Xiamen, a coastal city in East China's Fujian Province.
Peng was based in Beijing. Xi worked in Xiamen. The distance made Peng unwilling to meet, but she finally agreed to go as her friend insisted Xi was "excellent."
During their first meeting, unlike other suitors always asking which songs were popular or how much she earned, Xi asked, "What are the styles of singing?"
After Peng replied, Xi said, "Sorry, I seldom watch TV. Which songs did you sing?"
After a few minutes of conversation, Peng felt a tacit understanding with Xi.
"I was asking myself, 'Isn't he just the ideal husband I expected? A man who's honest and insightful,'" Peng said of that day in media reports. "He later told me that just 40 minutes after we met, he firmly believed that I would become his wife."
In September 1987, they married in Xiamen.

🇨🇳🇺🇸President Xi on China-U.S. relations:
We should coexist in peace. As I have said many times, China and the United States, as two major countries, stand to gain from cooperation and will both lose in confrontation.
We do not need to avoid mentioning competition, but our competition should be a healthy one and should be kept within bounds. It should be a race of catching up with one another, not a wrestle in which either wins or loses.
