I was a famous comedian in the industry.
My girlfriend was a C-list actress.
We’d been together for ten years, but she’d never dared to admit our relationship, fearing I’d ruin her career.
Later, I switched careers to become a director and wanted to cast her as the female lead in my debut film.
But she mocked me: “You should know your place. Being a comedian was already a gift from heaven for someone like you.”
“Directing? What a pipe dream.”
“Do you really think any Tom, Dick, or Harry can make a movie?”
In the end, the actress I cast as the female lead became a billion-box-office queen.
Immediately after, my ex-girlfriend posted on Weibo, publicly declaring her love for me and begging for a second chance.
When reporters asked for my response during an interview,
I sneered: “I already have a girlfriend. Please, irrelevant people, show some self-respect.”
