Reserve asparagus tips. Cook asparagus pieces in boiling water for about 5-minutes, less the tender asparagus tips. Add tips and cook another 5-minutes. Saute onion in oil until golden. Add butter and flour, stir until blended and cook 2 or 3-minutes. Continue to stir while cooking. Dissolve bouillon cube into 1/2 cup boiling water and add to onion sauce. Add the milk, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and add asparagus. Simmer, covered, for about 30-minutes. If sauce is too thick, add more milk to attain desired consistency. Meanwhile, cook pasta and drain. Add sauce and half the parmesan cheese. Toss well. Add cream and toss again. Sprinkle remaining parmesan over the top and serve immediately. Buon Appittito!
