The years can wear down a romantic relationship, or it can let love blossom. For Taiwan singer
Christine Fan, it's the latter. Her 10year love affair is about to culminate in a wedding. As for the
ceremony, the star has the simplest taste. She wants to wear flat shoes, have some snacks and chat
with close friends.
"I'll let my boyfriend Blackie take care of everything," said Fan with typical humor. "I only have to
make sure I show up on time." Like her burgeoning(增长迅速的)romance, this superstar's singing
career is also on the rise. Her new bestselling album Love & Fanfan is both a witness to their 10year
love affair and her own philosophy.
The lyrics of the album's title song The Most Important Decision speaks her mind.
"You have a bunch of shortcomings. You become so stubborn that even the fairy stomps her feet in
anger."
"But life is far from being perfect, and you are my most important decision in life," Fan sings. Instead
of seeking perfection and glory, the singer seems to always enjoy a peaceful way of life, Her music
reflects her simple style of dressing. And she has one simple reason for selecting her Mr.Right. Fan
admitted, "He's just a quickwitted and smarttalking guy who never bores me."
Their relationship went official when Chen carried Fan on his back out of her home during a flood.
They had a seven years' itch(痒), but survived it when Chen proposed to Fan during an NBA game
last year.
As Chen said, "Regardless of ups and downs, we are still together. We're just like a compass and
she is the center point. My_life_has_no_direction_without_her."
