"[1] The film is set in Beijing, where Xiao Ai (Mei Ting) has her horror novel rejected by her patient publisher and finds out that her ex-husband, Qi Kun (Wu Chao), has been released from prison and is looking for her as well as her asthmatic son Xiao Xin (Zhu Jiangdi).

During one of her attempts to write a draft, Xiao Ai finds that a story has been written in her laptop, seemingly by no one, and which updates itself every day.

The story matches the tale told by Xiao Xin: a girl who was abused by her mother after her father left them.

During the search, Qi Kun manages to reach the mansion and demands that Xiao Ai tells him the whereabouts of their son until Yinan stops him.

Qi Kun informs Yinan that he had researched of Xiao Ai's background and learned that she was raised in an orphanage while being diagnosed with amnesia and asthma.

Xiao Ai, meanwhile, sustains a head injury and is taken to the hospital by Yinan and Qi Kun, but along the way the car crashes off.

Derek Elley of Film Business Asia commented that outside the fact that the characters were speaking Mandarin, that the film "looks exactly like a South Korean one — from its clean-looking shooting style, photography, editing, music and even immaculate wardrobe — and with its remote setting could just as well have been shot in South Korea as well.
