Despite this apparent perfection, Chun Mei secretly battles intense personal suffering, grappling with life's pressures and the difficult reality of accepting her own aging. Her world is dramatically upended when her husband, Wei Qiang, mysteriously disappears. As Chun Mei pieces together disturbing clues, her suspicions grow into fears of betrayal.
