The old mirror from the Republic of China hides centuries-old secrets, and the brown mole at the corner of his left eye is a mark of death.
The first midnight Lin Xia moved into her old apartment, she was targeted by the monster in the mirror. The scarred man who appeared in the moonlight used a brass key and half a jade pendant to piece together the truth about the death of Su Manqing, a famous actress in the Republic of China. Before hanging herself in the bathroom, she used rouge to mark moles on the mirror. From then on, every guest became a stand-in.
The soul of the warlord marshal Shen Zhiyan is trapped in a gap in time. Every year on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, the tragedy of failing to save his lover must be repeated. Two keys made of ribs, broken jade engraved with "Qing" and "Yan", and an ivory comb with black hair entangled between the teeth, all tell the story of the three-life agreement locked by the mirror.
When the Begonia mark burned on her palms, and when the lyrics of "A Dream in the Garden" shattered the mirror, Lin Xia finally understood: she was not a substitute, but the last link to unlock a century-old curse. When the door in the mirror opens, is it a fate of death or a redemption across time and space?
Thirty-three begonia flowers bloom quietly on the balcony, waiting for the final judgment on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month.
