Death Flute
Two Hearts Unite

Chien Wan arrived at Kui Fang's room. He was surprised because the door was still closed. The sun is high. Usually at a time like this, Kui Fang was already with her. That's the door to the room.

“Kui Fang!”

There is no lawfulness.

Chien Wan tapped once more and called louder, “Kui Fang! It's me!”

Still doesn't sound legitimate.

Ouwyang Ping who noticed her brother's behavior since then became confused. “Come in, Sister,” her proposal.

Chien Wan opened the door and entered. Ouwyang Ping followed him.

Apparently there was no one in the room. The room was empty and neat as if it had just been cleaned up.

Chien Wan started to panic. The panic was implied on her normally calm and expressionless face. This did not escape the sight of Ouwyang Ping who felt astonished. Chien Wan has never been this sweet. The Chien Wan he knew was the stiff, calm, and cold Chien Wan. Chien Wan who never showed his feelings.

The girl raised her gaze and saw a letter on the table. He approached the table and grabbed it.

“Kak Wan.”

Chien Wan turned her head and saw her sister holding out a letter to her. Take the letter. He was astonished. What's the matter? why did Kui Fang write her a letter?

Chien Wan opened and read it. The contents are short: “Good sister Wan, sorry I left without saying goodbye. Please leave me to the others. I wish you happiness with Ting Ting. Signed, Kui Fang.”

The letter came out of Chien Wan's hand.

Ouwyang Ping picked it up and read it. His forehead wrinkled. “Kak, what is this?”

“Kui Fang knew I would be betrothed to Ting Ting, then he left.” Chien Wan swallowed his bitter-tasting saliva.

“Then he...”.

Chien Wan nodded.

Ouwyang Ping stared fretfully. “And you..?”

Chien Wan cast her eyes on her sister. “We both need someone else to forget the past. The one who helped you is Sen Khang. While I.... thanks to Kui Fang I can get up again.”

Ouwyang Ping was stunned.

At that moment, a servant entered the room. The servant looked shocked because there was Chien Wan and Ouwyang Ping.

“Sorry, Sir and Miss. I guess...”.

“You know when Miss Wu left?” cut Chien Wan.

The waiter nodded. “About two hours ago, Mr.”

Ouwyang Ping smiled. “You'd better go after him, Kak.”

Chien Wan nodded. “Send our farewells to Father and Mother, Ping-er!” yells. Then he fluttered away leaving the place.

Ouwyang Ping looked at Chien Wan's departure with tearful eyes. Time can change their feelings. Now her brother had someone to live out his future. It was time for him to start a new life as well.

“May you be happy, My brother..”.

After pondering for a while, the girl returned to the vestibule to meet her family.

“Ping-er, where's your brother?” the Ouwyang Kuan.

Ouwyang Ping smiled. “Kakak Wan left with Kui Fang. They asked me to convey their departure as well as the blessing of all of you. Especially Father and Mother.”

Everyone there is shocked.

“You mean?” sui She.

“Kak Wan and Kui Fang have decided to unite.”

Both her parents looked at.

Sen Khang approached Ouwyang Ping and looked at the girl's wet eyes. “Ping-er..

Ouwyang Ping looked at him. “Kak Wan has found her happiness. Now it's time for me to step up as well,” he said. From now on he will try to find out his true feelings for Sen Khang. And that way, maybe happiness will be his too.

Smile Smile Khang. Finally, after a long time, this girl was willing to give him a chance. He's happy.

Ouwyang Ping smiled back at the young man's warm smile.

***

Chien Wan ran through the Bamboo Forest. He ran tirelessly until he finally arrived at Uncle Sung's grave. He stopped and was stunned.

A girl in purple was kneeling in front of the tomb. The girl looked helpless and helpless.

Chien Wan stood behind the girl. He did not disturb her and let the girl drown in her daydream. There was nothing more she wanted than to approach the girl and embrace her in her arms. But he knew the girl was daydreaming. And he himself needed time to calm himself.

After taking a deep breath, he called out, “Kui Fang.”

The girl flinched. He got up and turned his body as fast as lightning. His mouth gaped at Chien Wan's presence. He did not expect that the young man would come to catch up with him. He even thought that the engagement ceremony was already underway.

Chien Wan said nothing. Only his pair of eyes revealed the millions of desires he had been harboring all along. Expressing feelings of love that he never said. For a long time he was trying to understand his own heart. And right now, he did not want to think of anything other than his love for the girl.

With his innocence and honesty, Kui Fang had managed to tear down the wall that fortified his heart. The girl had taken his heart.

Kui Fang bit his lips and shook his head. “Kakak Wan..

Unable to say, Chien Wan approached and finally stood face to face with the girl. Their bodies are close together. And I don't know who started first, they hugged.

Kui Fang buried his wet face in Chien Wan's chest. Right now all the anxiety disappeared from his heart. He did not want to remember anyone else, including Ting Ting.

For a long time they embraced warmly and lovingly. Finally Kui Fang came to his senses and let go of his embrace. His face was blushing and his pair of eyes were staring at the young man he loved innocently.

Chien Wan looked at him with a million turbulent feelings. He raised his hand to Kui Fang's face. With his sturdy fingers he stroked the cheek of the girl. He stroked Kui Fang's cheeks, feeling the softness and smoothness of his skin.

“Why, Sister Wan?” sesah Kui Fang full of haru. “Why follow me?”

Chien Wan looked softly. “I won't know how you feel if Meng Huan doesn't say it.”

Kui Fang's cheeks were getting blustery. “You caught up with me because. Then... Ting Ting how?”

“How did you know I would be betrothed to Ting Ting?”

“I...” Kui Fang was feeling embarrassed now. “I listened to your conversation with your parents. Sorry...”

Chien Wan smiled. “Not what.”

“Ya... Then how is Ting Ting? Doesn't he love you?” kui Fang.

“Meng Huan has told me everything, hasn't he?” Chien Wan sighed.

Kui Fang nodded. He pulled Chien Wan's arm gently and invited her to sit under a tree. “Kakak Chi told me everything. About the love between you five. About your relationship with Ping-er in the past. About all the secrets that finally separated you. But especially about how Ting Ting loves you.”

“And you...”.

“I understand everything. I originally wanted to keep you. I want to be frank about how I feel, that's why I went to your room last night. But I heard your conversation with your parents. At that time I was very disappointed, Sister Wan.” Kui Fang sighed.

“Night I did make an effort to marry Ting Ting.”

Kui Fang turned his head and looked worriedly. “Then why did you catch up with me? Ting Ting had already suffered too much. It's appropriate that she's happy with you, brother. Good Lord! I don't want to be the destroyer of her happiness!” He started to get up and pulled Chien Wan's arm, intending to take her back to the Bamboo Guesthouse.

But Chien Wan held the girl's body until she stood up. “Ting Ting rejected me, Kui Fang.”

Kui Fang was stunned. “Hah?”

Chien Wan smiled and began to tell the story. She told Ting Ting's rejection of her. Also the proposal that Meng Huan submitted after her engagement to Ting Ting was not held.

Kui Fang's face grew brighter and brighter, Chien Wan said.

“Ting Ting will be happy with Meng Huan. Since long ago, Meng Huan adored Ting Ting, everyone already knows.”

After Chien Wan spoke, Kui Fang reached out his hand and clasped the young man's hand. “May I continue with you, Sister Wan?” whispered. Her smooth cheeks were blushing when she said those words.

Chien Wan's throat felt thick, as if her breath was stuck there. He nodded.

Slowly, Kui Fang placed his head on Chien Wan's chest which was a field. He closed his wet eyes. He felt the peace that slipped into his mind. Happiness struck his soul. If time stopped here, he wouldn't care. Because he was with the people he loved.

Chien Wan's hand stretched out onto the girl's head, stroking gently. He involuntarily lowered his nose into the fine dense hair, inhaling its fragrance. That's the best thing he's ever done to a girl. He was never like this, even when he was with Ouwyang Ping first.

For some time they kept silent to the intimacy. Finally Kui Fang raised his head and looked up at Chien Wan. Great love was in his eyes.

“Now where are we going, Brother?”

Chien Wan's forehead wrinkled. He was thrown back into the real world after enjoying a beautiful dream for a while. Her happiness at finding love is not lost, but is now overshadowed with guilt. He should not be happy as long as the disaster still befalls his family.

“You want to go back to the Bamboo Guesthouse?” ask Kui Fang again.

Chien Wan shook her head. “I've said goodbye to go.”

Kui Fang's nose wrinkled as he grimaced. “Because I'm so sad, I didn't say goodbye to your family. Now their view of me must be bad,” regrets.

Chien Wan will not smile. “Do not think so.”

“Then where do we go?”

“I want to find the perpetrator of the murder.”

Suddenly Kui Fang was very worried. “Kakak Wan..

“Ya?”

“If Ting Ting had wanted to marry you, you would not have followed me, would you?” mummified Kui Fang.

Chien Wan was stunned. “Eh...”.

“I don't blame you, Brother. It's just..”.

Chien Wan pulled Kui Fang's hand and clasped it tightly. “Inright. I'm not gonna catch up with you. Because I can't possibly chase a girl when I'm already tied to another girl.”

Kui Fang looked down.

“But if I had known how you felt about me, I would have rejected my mother's proposal. My mother wanted my happiness. If he knew I was happy with another girl, he wouldn't have proposed the match. That matchmaking won't happen.”

Kui Fang's head was raised and their eyes met in an understanding friendly gaze. Instantly Kui Fang's feelings became relieved.

“Now we should go to Kotaraja.”

“Ke Kotaraja?”

“We will promise Fei Yu to meet him there.”

“O yes!” Kui Fang smiled. “Betul also.”

They got up and paid their respects at Uncle Sung's grave. Then they walked away from the place. Holding hands.
