    Yu Tai is truly ruthless and taciturn; he's a vicious and beautiful junior sister who kills without hesitation, and there's also the seemingly harmless but actually cunning senior brother, Shu Li. It's really good; it's a short story, but the plot is tight and never drags. All the plot holes were filled, so it's definitely worth watching, sisters! I love this family of three so much!
