"Yelang, stop playing around, come out," Seventh Princess started searching in the room, but she couldn't find him. "Is he daydreaming outside? He likes doing that. No, it's raining heavily outside now."
"Princess, why hasn't Young Master Yelang come yet... What are you looking for, Princess?" A maid walked out from inside, intending to call Yelang in so she could help him bathe, only to find the princess searching the whole room for something.
"Yelang, where is he? Where is he? Someone was with him just now..." Seventh Princess said in a bit of panic.
"Princess, we were all busy taking care of your bath, no one was with Young Master Yelang... It used to be Taiya taking care of him." The maid replied weakly.
"Yes, it used to be Taiya taking care of him, we got used to it. I forgot to keep someone with him just now. I don't know where he's gone. Search every room." Seventh Princess said, furrowing her brows, also going to confirm something she didn't want to speculate about. She went towards the door.
"Have any of you seen that idiot Yelang?" Seventh Princess opened the door and asked the guards outside.
"Yes, he just ran out a while ago." The guard replied, and at that moment, it seemed that there was a problem, and his expression began to change.
"What? He ran out alone? Did you just let him run out alone?" Seventh Princess immediately scolded angrily.
"We thought he was going home." The guard responded weakly. Normally, at the Yeh residence, Thirteen Young Master could come and go freely, so they didn't stop him from leaving. However, at that time, he was alone, which was the problem.
"Go home? Can he go home alone? You all know he's not like other people, would I let him go home alone? And, it's raining and thundering now... Go and send people to find him immediately!!!" Seventh Princess shouted angrily, showing an attitude she had never shown before. Before, no matter what happened, she always remained calm.
"No, I have to go find him too!!" Seventh Princess wanted to go out directly, but she forgot that she was only wearing a nightdress; if she went out like this, it would cause a commotion.
Luckily, at that moment, a maid with quick eyes and hands held the princess back and urgently said, "Princess, you can't go out like this. It's windy and rainy outside, he'll catch a cold. I don't understand him. He clearly said he would stay here today, so why did he leave?"
If she knew the reason why Thirteen Young Master left, she would definitely be outraged, scolding him as an idiot, a moron, a complete fool.
"I have to tell Hu Niu not to expect me home tonight, I'll stay at my wife's house." This was what Thirteen Young Master had said to himself before leaving.
In all these years, he had never been apart from Hu Niu, not even for a single day, no, it would be more accurate to say not even for an hour, let alone spending a night apart. But today, he had to stay at the palace, while Hu Niu was at home.
He knew that Hu Niu would definitely worry about him. In order not to make her worry, he wanted to go back and tell her that he'd be staying at the palace so she wouldn't worry.
But if he could go back to inform her, then he wouldn't have to stay at the palace. Would Hu Niu let him go back in the rain?
He wouldn't think about that. He only knew that he couldn't let Hu Niu worry about him. Even though he knew there was a strong wind, heavy rain, thunder, and lightning outside, he had to go back and tell Hu Niu not to worry.
Thirteen Young Master ran under the thunderstorm, running within the palace, but no one stopped him, because everyone knew who he was; there was no place in the palace that he couldn't go.
In this way, Thirteen Young Master ran out of the palace towards the Yeh residence. Actually, the Yeh residence wasn't too far from the palace, the area where the nobles lived was naturally close to the palace, convenient for attending court, and at the same time, they could be neighbors with the emperor.
Of course, "not too far" didn't mean it was very close. It took Thirteen Young Master at least twenty minutes to run back home, if he kept going like this.
At that time, Thirteen Young Master had an umbrella, a very precious one, made of cloth woven with gold thread and a gold-inlaid frame. This was an umbrella that he, a spendthrift, should have. It was something he bought in one of his spendthrift episodes.
However, it was a thunderstorm outside now, and holding such an umbrella increased the chance of getting struck by lightning. It was like carrying a lightning rod around.
The translation of the text is as follows:
"Thor and the Goddess of Lightning seemed to be treating him with face, magnificently sending a lightning bolt at Thirteen's umbrella.
"Boom..."
"Ah..."
Thirteen emitted a gleaming electric light all over his body, screamed in agony, and then fell on the rain-soaked street. In that instant, it seemed as though in the area around him, there were bursts of electric currents running amok.
At that moment, Thirteen seemed to feel an electric current flowing through his body, stimulating his brain. It wasn't the current from the lightning, although it might have been caused by the lightning. He sensed that it was a different, mysterious type of current, one that evoked an indescribable feeling.
What is this? Before Thirteen could think, he had already fallen into a deep coma.
...
"We found Young Master Yelang on the ground, and there's a hint of burnt smell? Could it be... Could it be that the lightning just struck him?" A group of royal guards appeared on the street, and the first thing they saw was the troublemaking umbrella, followed by the sight of Thirteen, who had been struck by lightning. He now displayed all the features of being electrocuted.
The disheveled, curly hair, slightly blackened and with a hint of burnt skin, and clothing that had been destroyed...
Is he still alive? Upon seeing this situation, everyone would have the same thought at first. A person struck by lightning apparently has an extremely low survival rate.
However, in the next moment, the royal guards on the scene immediately had another thought:
He must survive, or else it'll be big trouble!
Yes, if this Young Master Yelang of the Yelang family dies now, then this group of people would be in deep trouble. Although they might not die, they would definitely be unlucky.
