After rising to the throne of Best Actor, Ji Shumo never expected that running into his ex-girlfriend, Bai Zhi, would make him feel as though he were back in acting school.
“Remember you? No, no, you're wrong. I hit my head while filming an action scene a few years ago, so my memory's not great!”
“Watching you? No, no, you imagined it. I got a work injury while filming a few years ago and now I'm cross-eyed.”
“Missing you? No, no, I don't get enough sleep, so I tend to zone out.”
“Feeling sorry for you? No, no, I inherited dry eyes. The wind makes them water.”
“Found out Bai Xiaoyu is my biological son? No, no, he only plays my son onscreen. My acting fundamentals aren't solid, so I have trouble getting out of character.”
Best Actor Ji Shumo has suffered so many injuries from acting that he started carrying a thermos cup at a young age.
One day, the film crew ordered health-conscious boxed meals. Ji Shumo took a bite and welled up with tears. “Where's the chef? Get them to cook for the crew!”
His ex-girlfriend, Bai Zhi: “I'm fine with a business collaboration, but there's no need to rekindle our relationship.”
Ji Shumo: “Deal.”
When he learns his ex-girlfriend won't take him back, the Best Actor decides to take the roundabout route.
Ji Shumo's inner thoughts: I need to take my time with this. I absolutely mustn't rush things.

A little scene with Ji Shumo and Bai Xiaoyu""
Bai Xiaoyu, a devoted Sun Wukong fan, cries and fusses because he has to play Zhu Xiaojie. Ji Shumo, who plays Zhu Bajie, tries to comfort him.
Ji Shumo: You're Zhu Xiaojie now. When you grow up, you'll be much more powerful than his dad, Zhu Bajie. You know what they say, the student surpasses the master?
Bai Xiaoyu wipes his tears: No, I don't. Not in eight hundred years.
Ji Shumo: (sighs and gazes at the sky) If you don't get it, I honestly don't know how to explain it to you.
Bai Xiaoyu thinks it over for a while, then asks: When Zhu Xiaojie grows up, can he become Sun Wukong?
Ji Shumo shakes his head: No. Not in eight hundred years.
Bai Xiaoyu: 555555555. If he can't grow up to be Sun Wukong, why brag that he'll be amazing? 55555555
