The night is deep and silent.
Early spring evenings always seem to rush ahead, the sky grows completely dim by the rooster hour, leaving an isolated peak engulfed in silence. Only the twinkling of roadside lamps and lanterns hanging in courtyards breathe a bit of life into this lonely summit.
The youth drags his weary body back home.
He and Lin Jiangxian both live within their senior sister's courtyard, which is quite expansive—the grounds at the summit are at least as large as two soccer fields, and nearly all of this area serves as the senior sister's backyard.
He and Miss Lin reside on either side of the senior sister, not far apart—just a hundred meters or so—making visiting each other rather convenient, while also retaining their personal space.
As for Bai Yu, she also dwells at the summit, but her residence is along the path down the mountain. She is quite aware of her status and knows she is not qualified to live within Liu Tangxi's courtyard.
