No Staff, No Security? Lu Yuxiao’s Airport Incident Raises Major Safety Concerns |
Rising C-drama star Lu Yuxiao — best known as the elegant and ethereal Shangguan Qian in My Journey to You (云之羽) — has found herself at the centre of a public uproar after a disturbing encounter at Shanghai airport went viral.
A clip making the rounds online shows Lu Yuxiao casually strolling through the arrival hall, when suddenly, a man approaches from behind and touches her head and shoulder without warning. Clearly caught off guard, she turns around in visible confusion, only for the man to vanish into the crowd just as quickly as he appeared.
Caught Alone — With Only Her Dad Around
What’s shocked fans even more is the lack of security or staff around her. It’s been confirmed that Lu Yuxiao had just landed with no entourage, with only her father on hand to pick her up.

Not Her First Time in the Headlines
While this is the first time Lu Yuxiao’s been caught in such a troubling public moment, she’s no stranger to attention. Beyond her breakout performance in My Journey to You, she’s also starred in The Longest Promise (玉骨遥), Love You Seven Times (七时吉祥), Perfect Match (五福临门), and the quirky rom-com To Ship Someone (全世界都在等你们分手).
She’s long been praised for her refined, fairy-like aura, with some fans even comparing her to Liu Yifei. Producer Yu Zheng has also sung her praises, calling her “a rare gem on screen.”
And she’s not just about looks either — LuYuxiao made headlines a while back when she performed CPR on a crew member who collapsed during filming. Turns out, she picked up first aid basics from her parents — her mum’s a dentist, and her dad works as a hospital deputy director.
Tired of the Trolls
Despite her sweet image, Lu Yuxiao’s had her fair share of haters online. She previously opened up about a spinal injury that affects her posture, but instead of sympathy, some netizens chose to mock her appearance, with harsh comments calling her “disabled.” The backlash sparked fierce discussions about body shaming and ableism in the Chinese entertainment industry.
Yet through it all, Lu Yuxiao’s handled everything with grace — from keyboard warriors to surprise airport gropers.
