"Shut up. If you dare to make a fuss, I will throw you out. Also, don't get it wrong, I'm staying here only for Young Master. You have nothing to do with me, no matter how noble your status is. Please don't let the Young Master suffer unnecessary harm. Otherwise, I will make you pay the price." Hu Niu did not take a step back in the matter. No one could make her back down.
Perhaps she was fearless, or perhaps it was just because she was naive and unafraid.
However, after this incident, everyone knew that the Thirteenth Young Master of the Ye Family was a thorn in Hu Niu's side. Whoever touched him, she would deal with, including the royal family and the Ye Family.
This also sparked a long-forgotten question, that of Hu Niu's origins. Up to now, aside from her name, no one even knew her surname, let alone any other information.
The orcs were a unique race. Although they had not established a formal empire and existed in a tribal form, their power was no less than any empire, perhaps even surpassing it.
Of course, this referred to their united strength. However, they were generally independent, with several tribes or even just one tribe for a few races, with the largest tribes mostly consisting of one race, essentially the larger clans within the orc race.
Although there were conflicts and wars among the orcs at times, when it came to invasion by other races, they would unite and eradicate the invading foreigners.
This was similar to the human race, as they were generally independent, but the difference was that even when facing a formidable enemy, they might engage in civil war, and if another country was invaded, other countries would simply stand by, unless they reached a situation of mutual destruction.
Within the orc race, the Tiger Clan was a powerful tribe, and their influence was quite substantial, especially when coupled with the cunning Fox Clan, which enhanced their power.
Perhaps, Hu Niu was an important figure within the Tiger Clan. If that was the case, then she definitely had the qualifications to address the princess!
In an empire, there were not just one or two princesses, there could be over a dozen or even scores of them!
While being a princess of the empire, it did not necessarily hold more significance than being an important figure within the Tiger Clan.
Moreover, the orc tribes did not place much importance on social status, as in their world, strength was the most crucial. As long as your strength was sufficient, you would be an important figure in the tribe!
Of course, Hu Niu had been with the Thirteenth Young Master since she was young, which meant she did not become an important figure based solely on personal strength.
It was likely to be based on her family's strength. A powerful family could also bestow a different aura upon a person, and this was a rule even within the orc tribes!
Perhaps, Hu Niu had an unimaginable identity!!
Of course, this was just speculation, and perhaps Hu Niu was simply bold and unafraid of anyone, indifferent to any status!!
After all, among the orcs, many races were extremely hot-blooded, not considering consequences and doing what they thought was right, even at the cost of their lives.
The Tiger Clan was a representative of this, only with the Fox Clan advising, as without them, their battles would likely have been straightforward, with no room for maneuvering.
...
Seven days passed, and the Thirteenth Young Master continued to sleep in bed, showing no signs of waking up. This made people start to feel anxious, leading some to wonder if he would lie in bed for the rest of his life, never to wake up again. This was a natural thought, as anyone would have it after seeing someone remain unconscious for seven days and nights.
The Thirteenth Young Master was now back at the Ye Family, in his own bed. After that day, they moved him back, and for these seven days, Hu Niu had been by his side all along, even sleeping by the bed, a dedication that even Long Anqi, his mother, showed for only three days before leaving the duty to Hu Niu.
However, Long Anqi came over every morning and only went back to sleep late at night, doing this every day, as did Ye Lanyu.
During the day, Long Anqi and Ye Lanyu would let Hu Niu take a little rest, encouraging her to take a bath, temporarily leaving the Thirteenth Young Master in their care.
At first, Hu Niu refused, but later she did not, because she knew this might be a protracted battle, and she could not afford to tire herself out. If she did, how would she continue to look after her Young Master?
In these seven days, the Seventh Princess also came every day to see the Thirteenth Young Master, staying for half a day as soon as she arrived.
On this day, Hu Niu, Ye Lanyu, the Seventh Princess, and Long Anqi, the four women, were all by the Thirteenth Young Master's side, anticipating his awakening, anticipating him opening his eyes and looking at them, anticipating him saying those silly things.
And sometimes, they were so eager that even the meaningless small movements of the Thirteenth Young Master filled them with surprise. But after each surprise, they would be disappointed, time and time again, leaving them physically and mentally exhausted.
These seven days made them understand what it felt like for time to drag on endlessly.
Suddenly, the Thirteenth Young Master's hand moved, causing Hu Niu, who was holding it, to tremble and look at him immediately. However, the Thirteenth Young Master did not make any further movement, disappointing her once again, thinking it was just like before.
But this time, it was definitely not a meaningless gesture. It was definitely different from before.
Because the next moment, the Thirteenth Young Master suddenly opened his eyes, sat up, and even shouted a sentence, although no one could understand its meaning, at that moment, who would care? All four women joyfully rushed to embrace the Thirteenth Young Master, whose face was filled with confusion.
What was this one sentence the Thirteenth Young Master said? According to the accounts of the four women present, it was a very difficult to understand, and very uncharacteristic sentence.
"Dang, dear Heavens, just came out of isolation, no need to welcome me so grandly with such a big shooting star!!"
Dear Heavens? Shooting star? Just came out of isolation? What did these mean?
Could the Thirteenth Young Master's head have been struck by lightning?
Or, did he ever have such an experience, perhaps even such a dream? Who could know what he did during his coma?
