Chu Pian Ran's

Episode 8 of Song Hyu Meen's Longing

A beautiful girl was sitting alone in the library room writing something on paper.

Chu Pian Ran stopped his unfinished writing. His heart is not good at the moment.

The girl then put her head on the table. His mind is uncertain.

A young man entered the room silently, without making a sound.

Arriving at the table, his eyes saw a paper with a strange inscription.

What is this writing? I've never seen one before... Inner Lee.

The handsome young man then noticed the girl in front of him. Chu Pian Ran was completely unaware of his arrival.

Is he asleep...

Lee did not have the heart to wake Chu Pian Ran up, if the girl had indeed fallen asleep.

For a moment the young man again observed the writing on the paper. But still he did not understand the meaning of the writing at all.

A few minutes later there was movement from Chu Pian Ran's body.

"You? How could it suddenly be here?" Asked the beautiful girl with a lethargic face.

"You why? it hurt?" Instead of answering Chu Pian Ran's question, Lee asked back.

The girl nodded lazily.

"Then?" Follow that handsome young man.

"I want to be alone. If you don't have any business, you better go home..." Said Chu Pian Ran while putting his head back on the table.

Instead of leaving, Lee Jiang Wook instead sat down near the beautiful girl. His left hand gently stroked Chu Pian Ran's hair. The girl did not react at all to the young man's touch. Usually he didn't like it if Lee did something like that.

"How about we go for a walk?" Invite the handsome young man in a soft voice.

"Lazy." Chu Pian Ran's reply was brief.

"Riding?" Ask Lee Jiang Wook again.

"Are you able to ride?" Say the girl.

"of course. Handsome young man like me can't ride..." Showing Lee.

Chu Pian Ran did not react.

"Why silence?" The young man was more confused.

The girl closed her eyes. He really doesn't want to talk much.

I don't know why the last few days he missed his parents so much.

Since his death, his father must have been very sad and lonely in Guangzhou there.

Lee's heart ached. He sensed that the girl in front of him was harboring pent-up sadness.

This morning the streets of the capital look very crowded. Residents were lined up on the left right bank of the road waiting for the Qin army to pass by.

For several years now, Qin forces were guarding the restive border area as Lian forces wanted to capture the area.

After a long struggle, the Qin army finally gained victory. And now they're back in the capital.

Among the crowd, there was a girl and a young man who also wanted to see the group.

Who else if not Lee Jiang Wook and Chu Pian Ran.

Today, Lee did come to the girl's house on purpose. Wanting to ascertain whether Chu Pian Ran had been fine since the last time he came two days ago.

To comfort her daughter, he took her for a walk. Fortunately the girl wanted to. And coincidentally today coincided with the return of Qin troops to the capital.

The cheers of the residents sounded boisterous as the entourage passed in front of them.

In the front row there are 2 men who ride their horses gallantly.

One was middle-aged, the other was young and very handsome.

That was Great General Long Yuan and his elder Prince Qin Wu Zhu, the second prince of the Qin Kingdom.

Visual Prince Qin Wu Zhu. This handsome young man had a cold innate.

The one who stole the attention of Chu Pian Ran was not the handsome young man that many women in the capital loved. Yet the middle-aged man who rode a horse beside him.

Why does the man's face look so similar to that of my father... Chu Pian Ran asked inwardly.

His eyes continued to pay attention to the middle-aged man until it disappeared from his sight.

Lee clearly saw that Chu Pian Ran's face showed something different.

The young man finally led the beautiful girl away from the crowd.

Now the two of them were sitting on the edge of the canal, under the shade of the peach tree.

"Why? Are you also interested in the prince?" Lee asked Jiang Wook trying to pry an explanation from the girl.

"Prince? You mean that handsome young man is a prince?" Reply Chu Pian Ran.

"Yes... He's Prince Qin Wu Zhu, the second prince of the emperor." The young man's light.

"Then, who's middle-aged?" Continue the girl.

"He's Great General Long Yuan, the emperor's younger brother." Said Lee.

Chu Pian Ran was silent. He was drifting in his mind.

These few days he was longing for his father, and suddenly just saw the face of a general who was very similar to his father.

What is this... I really don't think it out... The girl's mind shakes her head.

That attitude of Chu Pian Ran was noticed by Lee Jiang Wook. The young man felt suspicious about the girl's strange behavior.

"Why?" Ask Lee curiously.

"It's okay." Chu Pian Ran replied.

"But I see from your attitude that you're not okay. You're interested in that handsome prince, aren't you?" Urge the young man.

"Don't talk about nothing!" Chu Pian Ran said slightly.

"Then?" Buru Lee Jiang Wook's.

"You're the reason, just want to know. Jealousy?" The girl began to get angry.

"Clearly I'm jealous." The young man answered frankly.

Chu Pian Ran then flicked his mouth.

Chu Pian Ran's Room

"Xi Er, do you know General Long Yuan?" Chu Pian Ran asked one night.

"Know a little lady... Why did the lady suddenly ask about the general?" Reply Xi Er was curious.

"Want to know." The employer is flat.

"Tell me about the general." Add the girl.

Xi Er was silent. The servant was increasingly curious about the attitude of his master.

"Hey, I'm daydreaming." Chu Pian Ran's words spread Xi Er's mind.

The servant grimaced for a while, then told what he knew about General Long Yuan to his nona.

Actually Xi Er kept the question of her employer's strangeness. But he did not dare to speak it.

"Do you know his house?" Continue the young lady.

"Why does miss want to know General Long Yuan's house?" The waiter asked, more confused.

"Don't ask too many questions, just answer them." Chu Pian Ran said.

"Yes my lady knows her house." Xi Er.

"When did you take me in front of his house?" Pinta the beautiful girl.

"Yes, yes." The waiter kept a big question mark. This time the young lady was really strange.

I have to tell young master Lee... Inner Xi Er.

Lee Jiang Wook's

The young man was opening a rolled up paper. The paper was delivered by one of the maids from uncle Chu's residence this afternoon.

Lee Jiang Wook read the writing on the paper and then his forehead wrinkled.

Why Ran Er wants to know about General Long... This is what made his attitude strange yesterday... What is this...

There was curiosity and confusion in the heart and mind of the handsome young man.

****

A few days later, Lee Jiang Wook deliberately invited Chu Pian Ran to come to his house.

At first the girl refused. But after being seduced by Lee, the girl finally wanted to too.

Currently, the two of them were sitting leisurely and chatting in the gazebo while eating snacks and drinking tea.

Some time later, a middle-aged man appeared. He was General Long Yuan.

Lee who realized first the arrival of General Long Yuan also rose to his feet.

Chu Pian Ran who was sitting back to General Long Yuan turned his body and...

The girl fell silent stunned to see the figure of the man walking ever closer towards them.

"Greetings uncle Long Yuan, long time no see. How's uncle doing?" Lee Jiang Wook politely asked while saluting the man in front of him.

Chu Pian Ran stared fixedly at the middle-aged man.

"I'm fine Lee... Now you're getting bigger and braver." Reply General Long Yuan by patting the young man's right shoulder.

"And this?..." Asked the middle-aged man while looking towards Chu Pian Ran.

General Long Yuan's question made the beautiful girl startled and aware.

"Greetings general Mr. Long Yuan, I am Chu Pian Ran, daughter of lord Chu Jeong Byun, royal advisor..." Reply to the girl with a slight bow.

"Oh, you are the daughter of master Chu Jeong Byun. I hear you're sick?" General Long Yuan

"Yes, sir, but now it's better..." Chu Pian Ran replied.

"Ah thank goodness... Sorry, I didn't know you. Please be advised, I have not been to your residence for many years. Maybe sometime if there's time I'll visit the Chu residence." Added the middle-aged man.

"Good sir. Please if you want to visit. Our residence is always open." Connect the girl.

"Then please continue talking. I'll meet Mr. Lee inside." General Long Yuan said, then the middle-aged man went to see Mr. Lee.

Chu Pian Ran continued to stare at the departure of General Long Yuan until it disappeared from sight.

Ever since the arrival of General Long Yuan, Lee kept a close eye on the girl. The young man was increasingly convinced that Chu Pian Ran had a different view towards the middle-aged man.

As Lee gets word from Xi Er if his nonanya wonders about general Long Yuan. The young man held a great curiosity.

Coincidentally, his father would hold a meeting with general Long Yuan at his residence.

So, today Lee tried to persuade Chu Pian Ran that the girl would be invited to his house. The young man wanted to know how the girl had reacted after meeting the middle-aged man in person.

"You okay?" Lee Jiang Wook.

The girl's face had turned grim since meeting the general Long Yuan earlier.

Chu Pian Ran simply nodded his head.

"I want to go home..." Said the girl slowly. Without waiting for the young man's reply, Chu Pian Ran also stepped foot towards the gate.

"Hey wait!" Lee Jiang Wook exclaimed as he caught up with the beautiful girl.

Inevitably Lee gave up Chu Pian Ran's return. Though only a few minutes they chatted until the arrival of General Long Yuan at Lee's residence.

The young man drove the girl home without asking any more. He kept to himself the curiosity that had been on his mind for two days.
