During a light-hearted segment, Cheng Xiao was dared to message one of her exes. It was clearly all in good fun, but the moment she pressed “send,” netizens were locked in. After briefly panicking over what to say, she opted for a classic ice-breaker: “Hi.”
Seconds later? He replied with a simple: “?”
Unbothered, she followed up with: “How have you been?”
His answer: “Good.”
Short, sweet, and low-key iconic. She then clarified that it was all part of the show’s challenge, which only added to the intrigue.

What really kicked off the online guessing game was a comment from one of the show’s participants who casually dropped: “Her ex is a superstar.” Cue wild netizen theories and speculation parties. While Cheng Xiao didn’t name names, the fact that her ex replied so politely had many believing they ended things on good terms.
Fans were quick to applaud Cheng Xiao’s calm and classy approach. Let’s be real—messaging an ex on national TV is not for the faint-hearted, especially when you’re a public figure. But Cheng handled it with humour and maturity, even joking around with her castmates during the segment.

In another clip from the same episode, Cheng Xiao opened up further, talking candidly about her dating past and what she actually wants in a partner.
She confirmed she’s been in relationships before—and not just with people inside the entertainment industry. When asked directly, she said she’s dated both in and out of showbiz. That cheeky admission had netizens guessing again: does that mean two exes? And is one of them someone we know?
Cheng revealed her first love was pretty “ordinary,” but she made it clear that in both of her past relationships, she was the one being pursued, not the one doing the chasing.

When asked about her ideal partner, Cheng didn’t hold back.
“I’d rather find someone who can take care of me, someone who is willing to give. I don’t want to be the one who constantly has to coax my partner,” she shared.
“He should bring happiness to the people around him—especially me. He should be capable and responsible, but not someone who only thinks about his own feelings.”
She also admitted that she’s a bit of a “taker” in relationships. In her words, she prefers someone who’s happy to look after her emotionally rather than being the one constantly making the effort.

“She’s so honest, I respect that!”
-
“She knows what she wants and she’s not afraid to say it.”
-
“That reply from the ex was savage but calm—wonder who he is!”
-
“Can’t believe she actually messaged him—what a queen.”
