LayarHijau – Chinese actor Zhang Linghe has once again captured public attention. On July 10, the hashtag #ZhangLingheInNoHurryToMarryAndHaveKids# trended on Weibo. The topic emerged after a clip of Zhang Linghe discussing life with other guests on the variety show The Truth Season 4 went viral and was widely discussed by netizens.
A Relaxed Take on the Future
The casual conversation on the show began with a discussion about their lives eight years from now. Since Zhang Linghe was born in 1997, in eight years he will turn 36, which will also be his benming (zodiac year), specifically the Year of the Ox.

During the chat, Zhou Keyu asked a curious question: “By the time you’re 36, do you think you’ll have kids?”

Receiving the question, Zhang Linghe gave a very relaxed and straightforward answer. “I’m in no rush at all. Why rush into marriage? Who knows what I’ll be thinking later? Let’s just leave the future to the future,” he said.
The candid response from the 29-year-old actor immediately sparked discussions. Netizens noted that with a packed filming schedule and rising popularity, this is the perfect time for him to focus on his craft.
Positive Reactions from Netizens
On Weibo, positive reactions dominated the discussion. Many netizens were both entertained and relieved by Zhang Linghe’s mindset. They felt the actor has a relaxed mentality and doesn’t want to rush into making decisions for a future full of possibilities. Career-focused fans also cheered, as Zhang Linghe seems increasingly driven to focus on his work.
During the discussion, other guests shared equally interesting reactions. Jin Jing chimed in, stating that even 32 is still too early to get married. Meanwhile, Ding Chengxin gave an innocent response that lightened the mood, saying, “I’m still a baby.”
Views on Love That Previously Went Viral
This relaxed take on marriage isn’t the first time Zhang Linghe has become a talking point. Previously, his views on romance on the same show also went viral and sparked widespread discussion.
“True love is often about feeling a sense of indebtedness, not love at first sight. True love will usually be hindered by fate,” Zhang Linghe said in the program.
This quote was dubbed by netizens as a “golden romance quote” due to its poetic nuance. Many viewers felt his perspective was highly rational but heavily emphasized responsibility and sacrifice in a relationship.
As the statement went viral, a minority of netizens were reminded of the past romance rumors between Zhang Linghe and Bai Lu. The two were rumored to be in a relationship after collaborating in the drama Story of Kunning Palace, though it was never openly acknowledged. There were also rumors that Bai Lu turned down starring in Pursuit of Jade because she allegedly didn’t want to work with Zhang Linghe again. However, the majority of fans believe that Zhang Linghe was simply sharing his personal reflections.
