Your perfect lover may share the same face as you.
Lin Xi believed that living with the gentle and meticulous illustrator Gu Ying was the happiness she finally grasped in her wandering life. Until that midnight, she found a blood-red warning on Gu Ying's cell phone:
[Rule 1: Don't trust the person in the mirror]
At first, she thought it was just a weird lover's joke. But then, more creepy rules followed: [When he calls you, you must respond within three seconds], [Do not enter a room without light after midnight]...
And the rules are being fulfilled one by one.
Whenever night falls, the ever-gentle Gu Ying will disappear briefly. Immediately afterwards, Lin Xi could always catch a glimpse of another "him" in the reflection of the mirror - covered in blood, with crazy eyes, silently calling her name. When the people around her appeared again with a familiar body temperature and smile, and asked her "what's wrong" in the softest voice, she was torn in half by extreme fear and extreme tenderness.
Which one is true? Is it the caring lover outside the mirror, or the bloody shadow in the mirror?
As she investigates further, a more desperate truth emerges: these rules are not intended to kill her, but to "tame" her. The gentle Gu Ying's embrace is itself a more exquisite cage. And every roar of the bloody Gu Ying is the last struggle of the imprisoned love.
When rules become the norm and terror becomes daily life, Lin Xi must make a choice...
