Woman pays for service to rekindle lost love, then learns ex married shortly after breakup

A woman in southwestern China who paid a service to help her reunite with her ex-boyfriend is demanding a refund after she found he had since married, a mainland newspaper reported.

Liu Shanshan, from Chengdu, Sichuan province, spent 7,000 yuan (HK$8.150) on the service before she found her ex-boyfriend had married shortly after they broke up in 2014, the West China Metropolis Daily reported.

The relationship ended after three months and Liu signed a contract with a dating firm in April this year designed to rekindle former love. She found the service online, the report said.

After Liu began her training, she learned of her ex-boyfriend’s marriage.
