The judge said that Yi Xing Song had suffered “sleepless nights” because she believed that Wang was dating another man.
A jealous man who murdered his partner and shared images of his body in a messaging app with his family was jailed for life.
Yi Xing Song stabbed Li Qing Wang 21 times in his room in Leyton, east London, in February.
Song, 54, had suffered “sleepless nights” because he thought that Wang, 35, was dating another man, the Old Bailey was told.
He was ordered to serve at least 19 years in jail after admitting to the murder.
On the day of the murder, the court was told that he had drunk strong beer and red wine before launching a “fierce” attack with a six-inch knife.

Song shared a photo showing Li Qing Wang’s body with his family
He had then shared pictures of his body in a WeChat family group.
The photo was seen by Ms. Wang’s sister, who lives in China, and she contacted family members to check on Ms. Wang’s well-being.
Later, two friends found her body, a broken phone, and Song “pretending to be unconscious.”
During the sentencing it was heard that, since the murder, the victim’s son, Xudong Wang, had been forced to take a year off from his master’s course at Cambridge University.
It had been his mother’s dream to see him graduate, the court heard.
