The Vanishing Beauty Premieres October 9 on Tencent Video
美人余
The Vanishing Beauty (美人余), the contemporary Chinese drama starring Li Yitong and Chang Huasen, began streaming on October 9, 2026, on Tencent Video in China.
Unlike a conventional meet-cute romance, this one starts with a marriage that seems too perfect to be true. Then the heroine discovers that her husband may be plotting to take her family's assets. So much for the fifth-anniversary celebration.
The premiere was accompanied by new official character materials and a final launch trailer emphasizing Yu Meng's decision to take back control of her life.
When and Where Does The Vanishing Beauty Premiere?
- China streaming premiere: October 9, 2026, on Tencent Video.
- China television premiere: October 10 at 7:30 p.m. China time on Dragon TV (东方卫视).
- Length: 28 episodes listed by WeTV.
- International catalog: WeTV's English-language series page lists episodes and teaser content.
The international WeTV listing should not be mistaken for a verified guarantee of free playback, U.S. availability, English-subtitle quality or the full release schedule in every country. Access can vary by region and membership.
What Is The Vanishing Beauty About?
Li Yitong plays Yu Meng, an only daughter whose comfortable marriage and enviable life attract plenty of admiration. But on the couple's fifth wedding anniversary, she discovers that the image of her devoted husband hides a potential scheme against her family's wealth.
Instead of accepting the role of the deceived wife, Yu Meng starts asking questions, seeking help and building a plan. Her friends become important allies as she reexamines the people she trusted and works to regain control.
WeTV's official synopsis specifically centers her financial vulnerability, marriage crisis and recovery of agency. The production's newest trailer leans into betrayal and retaliation rather than promising a soft, uncomplicated romantic comedy.
Who Stars in The Vanishing Beauty?
- Li Yitong (李一桐) — Yu Meng.
- Chang Huasen (常华森) — Jiao Xu.
- Wang Jiajia (王佳佳) — Lu Hui.
- Zeng Mengxue (曾梦雪) — Liu Zi.
- Qiao Zhenyu (乔振宇) — Di Liren.
- Peter Ho (何润东) — supporting cast.
The official Tencent Video account, the drama account and Li Yitong's studio all promoted the October 9 opening. Their announcement also confirmed Dragon TV's October 10 broadcast. See the October 9 Tencent Video and official drama posts and Li Yitong Studio's premiere notice.
Is This a Romance — and Does It Have a Happy Ending?
WeTV includes romance among the series' genres, but the publicity places more emphasis on Yu Meng's marriage crisis, deception and personal comeback. The series is not being advertised as an uncomplicated couple-centered romance.
There is no verified final-couple outcome yet for this news article. A premiere trailer is not enough to declare a happy ending, a breakup-free romance or a new relationship milestone.
For viewers who enjoy smart heroines who respond to betrayal with a plan rather than endless tears, the premise is worth watching. For anyone specifically seeking a confirmed romantic happy ending, it makes sense to wait for more episodes.
