| What’s Going On With Zhu Xudan? Deleted Weibo Posts Stir Up Speculation (Weibo) |
Bambi Zhu Xudan’s Weibo had a brief but explosive moment this week when two cryptic posts popped up — and vanished — all within 10 minutes, leaving netizens doing mental gymnastics trying to piece together the puzzle.
The actress first dropped a pointed question:
“Because you think I’m easy to talk to?”
…then followed it with something that felt even more loaded:
“This has nothing to do with the agency, don’t make wild guesses, I can’t say more. Let’s see how to resolve this.”
Despite being nuked almost immediately, the posts had already racked up over 100 million views, as per World Journal.

Not bad for 10 minutes of public air time, eh?

Naturally, the speculation machine went into full throttle.

Too Nice for Her Own Good?
For those who’ve been following her on Ride the Wind 2025, Zhu Xudan’s soft-spoken, accommodating vibe has made her come across as a proper sweetheart.
Viewers even praised her as being “easy to work with” and “genuinely kind”.
Which is exactly why the tone of her deleted posts had people doing a double-take.
The sudden change in tone had many wondering — had someone pushed her one step too far?

Guest Troubles or Internal Tension?
Some fans reckon this might be about a male guest recently added to the show, allegedly without much heads-up for the female cast.
Rumours suggest there might’ve been some discomfort or even friction behind the scenes, especially if the guest’s presence shifted the dynamics mid-way.
Others are looking at Jiaxing Media, her management agency, even though she clearly wrote “This has nothing to do with the agency”.
Of course, on Chinese internet, saying “don’t guess” is often an invitation for more guessing.
Stress Levels Peaking?

Another theory doing the rounds: burnout.
With the latest Ride the Wind 2025 performance stages just around the corner, it’s no secret that training’s been intense.
Between long rehearsals, production pressure and the ever-watchful public eye, it wouldn’t be surprising if Zhu Xudan’s patience finally wore thin.
Some reckon the posts were an emotional vent — one she regretted just moments later.
Understandable, really. Not everyone can bottle it up forever.
PR Move or Genuine Frustration?
Then there's the sceptical camp — netizens who think this was all deliberate promo timing.
With Ride the Wind 2025 set to premiere in June, a “post-delete-trend” combo is seen by some as textbook pre-release marketing.
“Make a splash, get the name trending, delete the posts, and boom — instant engagement.”
But others are pushing back on that take, saying Zhu Xudan’s tone seemed too raw to be calculated. One fan wrote:
“She sounded hurt, not strategic. Sometimes people forget she’s human first.”
Whether it was frustration, burnout, or lowkey shade at someone behind-the-scenes, one thing’s for sure — Zhu Xudan’s two little posts have stirred up big talk.
Let’s see if the next Ride the Wind episode brings more clues… or more cryptic posts.
