Chapter 4: Separation

(It is morning. Lei Ying failed to return to her room because she and Li Dian dind't wake up til noon)

Cao Cao:
(Enters Lei Ying's room)
My golden nightingale
Come out, I've got a surprise for you!
(Looks around but finds her no where)
Lei Ying, where can you be, you fool!
(runs outside and calls a nearby guard)
Hey you, know where Lei Ying has been to?

Guard:
No lord Cao Cao
I have no clue.

Cao Cao:
(is angry)
Useless guard, fetch me Guo Jia
go find him and Lei Ying now!
(The guard runs off and Guo Jia enters the hallway a minute later)

Guo Jia:
I heard my lord calling me a Li away
is there something you want me to say?

Cao Cao:
Do you know anything of Lei Ying being away?

Guo Jia:
(coughs while thinking)
Usually I've noticed Lady Lei Ying
away with General Li Dian and Yue Jin
whenever she's out of her room
Shall we find them?

Cao Cao:
(Deciding)
You go find Li Dian while I check on Yue Jin
Then come back here to inform their situation.
(They both part ways to the General's rooms)

(Meanwhile at Li Dian's room, Guo Jia enters after a quick knock and short cough)

Guo Jia:
Li Dian, Lord Cao Cao would like to-
(notices the two waking up upon his voice and looking with frightened eyes)
My general...My lady...
You know I have no choice but to report you...

Li Dian:
(On the floor bowing)
Please Guo Jia,
You know of Lei Ying's predicament
She never loved our lord
the way she loved me
Please let what you have seen
be away from your memories.

Guo Jia:
(sighs and coughs)
I am sorry, I know this may be cruel
but rules are rules
And we must follow them through
I apologize for being loyal to a fault.
(Guo Jia bows farewell and leave to report to Cao Cao)

Lei Ying:
(crying)
Li Dian, I am sorry for loving you
Now I've ruined your life too...

Li Dian:
(crying and hugging her in woe)
Even if our time has been short
I know our love is real
When I am killed
I'll plead to god
to let me be your angel.

Lei Ying:
(after hearing footsteps approaching them, kisses Li Dian for the last time)
We shall go to heaven together
living our eternal love
Angel of mine...
(holds his hand tight)

(Cao Cao, Guo Jia and guards enter Li Dian's room and took them away. Both are crying when separated)

Li Dian:
I'll love you forever, nightingale of mine!
(reaches hand out for her in tears)
