Sixteen-year-old Mei Xin rushed into a mahjong parlor and hit her stepfather on the head with a Buddha statue. Blood mixed with broken porcelain pieces flew everywhere, but she was beaten with bruises all over her body.
During the four days she was hospitalized, her mother did not visit her bedside once.
It wasn't until she was discharged from the hospital that Mei Xin discovered that her mother had mysteriously evaporated in the rental house along with her childhood, and she suddenly realized that she had become an orphan.

Ten years later, Mei Xin called Qiong Hua, the owner of the mahjong parlor, as her mother. She sat smoking in Qiong Hua's mahjong parlor and showed her his lawyer's qualification certificate, but Qiong Hua tore it up.
She didn't understand Qiong Hua's anger and fear until one rainy night when she saw her stepfather, who had disappeared for many years, clenching Qiong Hua's hand and threatening him fiercely: "No money? Then I want to see how the loser you raised will react if he knows that his adoptive mother killed his own mother!"

In the damp musty smell, Mei Xin suddenly remembered the night when she was sixteen years old. The hollow eyes of the Bodhisattva reflected the same darkness as the truth.
Purpose: Against the gray background of a mahjong parlor, reveal the double trauma of native family and hypocritical adoption, and explore women's self-salvation in the quagmire.
