Chapter 86

• As Dame Bather Village was situated in a mountain valley and the valley was a slope, houses were built upwards, from the south to the north. The closer they were to the north, the higher up they would be. The Dame Bather River flowed past the village following the landscape of the valley and it was quite a distance for Yang Yu to go over to Li Ruoshui's house.
• In this village where there were no telecommunication devices, dates could only be arranged by mouth. Li Ruoshui was one of the lucky ones as her boyfriend was a teacher like her, so they could meet every day.
• Yang Yu did not go over right after it turned dark. He waited till it was after eight, when the old people were almost asleep. This was his second time visiting Li Ruoshui's house and it was new. Yang Yu circled the house once like a thief. He noticed that it was pitch black on the first floor, the lights were off. Maybe Mr. Li was already asleep?
