Without Little Dragon Girl, this girl could very well become the beloved of Yang Guo.
To this day, Little Dragon Girl and Yang Guo remain one of the most iconic couples in Chinese screen history, also the most beloved in Kim Dung's martial arts universe. However, initially, Little Dragon Girl was not the person the author intended to match with Qua Nhi, but rather another controversial beauty.

According to a blogger on Weibo, when asked by a hardcore fan if the woman Yang Guo loves most is Quach Phu, Kim Dung replied cryptically: 'So you understand Heaven Sword now.' From this, it can be seen that in Kim Dung's perspective, the character Quach Phu is also a suitable match for Yang Guo, not inferior to Little Dragon Girl, and not as detestable as many viewers perceive.

Kim Dung remained silent for a few seconds before answering the fan's question: 'So you understand Heaven Sword now.'
In Kim Dung's Heaven Sword universe, Quach Phu is the offspring of Quach Tinh, fearless since birth. Her personality is quite assertive, stubborn, and often causes trouble, much to her parents' annoyance. It was Quach Phu who severed Yang Guo's arm, nearly killing Little Dragon Girl, and was the cause of the separation of the couple Cô Cô - Qua Nhi for 16 years.

Despite Quach Phu's many detestable traits, according to Kim Dung, this character truly loves Yang Guo in her heart, is treated well by the male lead, and even referred to as the 'little beauty.' However, due to one mistake after another, Quach Phu inadvertently becomes a villain, being cursed and condemned by readers.

The role of Quach Phu has been portrayed by many beautiful actresses in Chinese cinema. The most notable include Tran Tu Ham's version with a hot and sexy appearance contrasting with Liu Diephi, or the charming portrayal by Pho Minh Hien, once evaluated as 'having the appearance of a perfect couple' with Co Thien Lac, or even Mao Hieu Dong's version overshadowing Tran Nguyet Hy's 'chicken thigh sister' in Vu Chinh's film project.
