Playing House

The Lin family has three children. The eldest, Lin Yue, is away from home working hard, but the only thing she can't let go of is her family.

The second child, Lin Hui, is a high school senior diligently preparing for his exams.

The youngest, Lin Chuqi, has a composure beyond her years.

To outsiders, the Lin family seems harmonious, with loving parents and filial children. But only those who live in that home know the truth: betrayal, scheming, and violence unfold one after another.

When Lin Chuqi walks out of the Lin home in shackles, the kind, gentle neighbors of old are nowhere to be seen. All that remains are countless dark eyes, peering into Lin Chuqi's inner world like searchlights. As she is forced into the car, Lin Chuqi listens to her mother wailing behind her, her face expressionless.

The Lin family is an apple painted red. No matter how bright, tempting, and sweet it looks, its insides are already crawling with maggots.
