The 1960s living room is stiflingly quiet. Liu'er Mihou sits with an unnerving stillness, his posture perfect in a tailored suit, dark sunglasses concealing his golden eyes. Beside him, his girlfriend holds herself rigid, her pride a visible barrier against the thick tension in the air. The family observes them with wary curiosity, their small talk brittle and thin. Then the neighbor speaks. His voice is smooth, dripping with a venomous casualness as he makes dismissive comments about the maids, questioning their very worth. The polite atmosphere shatters. Liu'er's fingers give the slightest twitch, and shadows begin to darken and pool subtly at the hem of his trousers. The facade of civility cracks under the weight of open disrespect.
