Chinese Romeo is faced with dilemma as girlfriend and his ex BOTH jump in river during row and demand to be saved.
A Chinese man who was embroiled in a three-way tug of love between his current and ex girlfriends was forced to choose between the two women when they both jumped in a river and demand he save them.
Wu Hsia, 21, had broken up with long-term girlfriend Jun Tang, 20, after meeting new love Rong Tsao, 22, in the city of Ningbo in eastern China's Zhejiang province.
But Jun had taken the split badly and, over the following three months, engaged in a campaign of harassment in an effort to make her beau leave his new girlfriend.
Fed up with the grief he was getting from both sides, People's Daily Online reports that Wu arranged to meet both women at a local beauty spot to clear the air and make it clear where his loyalties lie.
But Jun forced the issue by throwing herself into the river - and Rong quickly followed suit.
The incident echoed a common Chinese custom that revolves around men being asked who they would rescue if their mother and their lover both jumped in a river.
Wu said: 'I was sick of being nagged from both sides.
'Rong was moaning about Jun and Jun was moaning about her and it all go too much.'
But when they got to the river, the situation went from bad to worse.
A police spokesman said: 'The girls began arguing and the man's ex-girlfriend felt insulted by a comment made by the new girlfriend, and so she jumped into the river calling for her former lover to save her.
'The new girlfriend, fearing that he might indeed jump in to save his ex-lover, then jumped in as well and both of them within calling for him to rescue them from drowning.'
Wu settled the matter by jumping in the water to save his current girlfriend, ringing his brother to ask for help in pulling out the ex.
