Yang Mi and Xu Kai to Star in “She and Her Perfect Husband”
Starring in blockbuster dramas such as Eternal Love <三生三世十里桃花> and Legend of Fuyao <扶摇>, Yang Mi‘s (杨幂) star power is undisputed. Fans eagerly anticipate her upcoming projects and are thrilled by the recent announcement that the 33-year-old actress will pair up with 25-year-old actor Xu Kai (许凯) in new drama She and Her Perfect Husband <爱的二八定律>.
Since his breakout role in Story of Yanxi Palace <延禧攻略>, Xu Kai (许凯) gained mainstream recognition and has starred in historical dramas The Legends <招摇> and Dance of the Sky Empire <天舞纪>. Working with Yang Mi is sure to boost Xu Kai’s popularity further.
Adapted from the novel with the same name, She and Her Perfect Husband revolves around single lawyer Qin Shi (Yang Mi) who has many aspirations for her career. However, she is constantly pressured by her parents to get married. A renowned law firm is looking to hire a family lawyer, but the job requires the candidate to be married. Her brother fills out her job application without her knowledge and indicates that she is already married. Qin Shi is stuck in a predicament where she is hired and finds herself married to Yang Hua (Xu Kai), who agrees to the arrangement because he does not want to be forced into another marriage by his parents. Their parents and Qin Shi’s ex-boyfriend suspect the marriage is not authentic, but living together in the same space causes Qin Shi and Yang Hua to fall in love and eventually become a real couple.
Despite their eight-year age gap, Yang Mi and Xu Kai look outwardly compatible. Working with Yang Mi for the first time, Xu Kai shares his excitement and hopes that he will be able to bring out a new character completely different from himself in She and Her Perfect Husband.

Don’t get me wrong, I think Yang Mi is beautiful. That being said, she does not look like she’s in the 20s, and she definitely does not look younger than him.
