The Great Entertainer

"Eighteen that year / at the school dance / standing there like a nobody

Back then / I swore through my tears / you'd all have to see me

In this world / there are too many ordinary paths

In love / at work / I've been overlooked too many times

My pride has been trampled into the dirt"

Director Jiang's three principles in life: The play comes first, actors deserve to be scolded, and absolutely no one gets to show off in his rehearsal room.

Then a former criminal profiler who now runs a bookstore showed up. Not only did he escape a scolding, he also kept precise track of how often Jiang swore, how long he couldn't sleep, and how many times he secretly bit his knuckles.

Jiang Zhi: Are you a freak?

Xi Zhiyuan: Yeah.

Jiang Zhi: ...Then can you tell that I want to punch you right now?

Xi Zhiyuan: I can. So the tea is ready, the ribs are on the stove, and... I'm waiting.

This is the story of a sharp-tongued director being expertly handled by a profiler, until both his heart and his stomach soften.
