Saving the Second Male Lead: What to Do When You Enter a Domineering Boss's Novel

In the early morning, Nangong Xianyue slowly opened his narrow eyes. Qiao Yisha in his arms was still immersed in sleep. He watched her silently, feeling unprecedented satisfaction and peace in his heart. He did not rush to wake her up, but an hour passed and she showed no signs of waking up.

Nangong Xianyue lowered his head and kissed Qiao Yisha's plump lips. He stroked them gently at first, and when he saw that she didn't respond, he used a little force to linger on her lips. His tongue went straight in, pried open Qiao Yisha's teeth and kissed her, trying to wake her up.

However, Qiao Yisha was startled by this sudden interruption in her sleep. Her palm waved unconsciously and hit Nangong Xianyue's face squarely. The slap was not strong, but it made Nangong Xianyue a little stunned.

He stepped back slightly, a hint of embarrassment on his face.

Nangong Xianyue coughed twice and gently shook the person in her arms, "Little Yisha, wake up, it's time to get up."

Qiao Yisha still didn't respond, so he raised his voice slightly, "Yisha, wake up." The strength in his hands also increased.

Qiao Yisha slowly woke up, opened her eyes a little, and asked in a cat-like voice, "Why are you here?"

Before Nangong Xianyue could speak, she closed her eyes again and said, "Go out, I'll sleep a little longer."

Nangong Xianyue held her neck and made her sit up, "Don't sleep, Yisha, wake up and get up with me."

Although Qiao Yisha was sitting, she was not awake yet. She fell headfirst onto Nangong Xianyue's chest. His wound was too deep and had not yet healed fully, so he groaned in pain.

“Damn it, why are you sleeping so deeply?” Nangong Xianyue noticed something was wrong and shook Qiao Yisha vigorously, “Wake up Yisha, don’t sleep anymore.”

Qiao Yisha opened her eyes, her eyelids felt so heavy that she couldn't move. "Master?" She looked around. "Why am I here?"

"You refused to come, so I had to carry you up myself."

"Can you let me sleep a little longer? I feel dizzy." Qiao Yisha said in a daze.

"No, you've slept long enough, Isa. Be good and come down with me." Nangong Xianyue said gently.

Qiao Yisha slowly opened her half-open eyes and saw the faint red marks on Nangong Xianyue's face. "What's wrong with your face?"

"I was slapped by someone in his sleep."

"Oh, sorry I didn't know." Joysa said apologetically.

Nangong Xianyue shook her head slightly, indicating that it was okay.

"Go wash up and go downstairs to eat. You must stay with me all day today." Nangong Xianyue said somewhat forcefully.

Joysa looked at the time on the electronic clock on the bedside table and saw that it was indeed late, so she forced herself to get out of bed.

The two of them walked down the stairs slowly, mainly because Joeysha was slow. She always felt weak all over and had no energy to do anything.

Nangong Xianyue pulled her to sit at the dining table and put a spoon in her hand. "I specially asked someone to cook porridge. You should be able to drink more."

Qiao Yisha looked at the hot porridge and felt warm in her heart. "Thank you."

This time she drank half a bowl before putting down her cutlery, and Nangong Xianyue did not force her to drink more.

After breakfast, she sat listlessly on the sofa. Seeing this, Nangong Xianyue asked her to go for a walk with him.

"I can't walk," Joysa said lazily.

“You have to go even if you can’t walk.” Nangong Xianyue took her hand and pulled her up from the sofa.

Qiu Yi and Huating followed them far behind.

On the way, Qiao Yisha pulled away the hand she was holding, and Nangong Xianyue's palm suddenly felt empty, with warmth still remaining in his palm. His heart trembled slightly.

The next second, he took her hand again and wrapped it in his soft palm.

Qiao Yisha tried to pull her hand back again, but Nangong Xianyue held her hand tightly and said in a low voice, "Does little Yisha hate me?"

She shook her head without thinking, "I will never hate you, but I don't want to like you anymore, so I don't want to hold your hand or hug you." Her voice was calm, but her heart was aching.

"Who do you want to like then?" Nangong Xianyue's tone turned cold after hearing her words, grabbing her shoulders, "That bird? Or that C-level person from Wangyue Group?"

"Think whatever you want, it doesn't matter." She no longer expected Nangong Xianyue to fall in love with her, so Nangong Xianyue didn't need to know who she loved.

"Why is it not important?" Nangong Xianyue's narrow eyes shot out a dangerous light, "If you fall in love with someone else, I will definitely kill him."

"You should control your possessiveness." She pushed Nangong Xianyue's hand away and continued walking forward.

"Qiao Yisha--" Nangong Xianyue shouted with gritted teeth. He almost never called Qiao Yisha by her full name.

Qiaoisha turned around and before she could finish her sentence, "What—" the tall man in front of her leaned over and kissed her face. His kiss was domineering and strong, without a trace of his former tenderness, silently venting his possessiveness.

"Ugh - let me go, I don't -" Joysa pushed him away and wiped her lips hard.

This action was particularly glaring in Nangong Xianyue's eyes, "Do you dislike me, Isa?"

"I told you I don't want to do these intimate things with you."

"You used to like it, didn't you?"

"I don't like it now," Qiao Yisha said clearly, "Maybe when you left me at the airport to go to the hospital to find Ning Wanrou, I should have put myself in the right position and been a good servant, but it's not too late to understand it now."

"We'll set off tomorrow. Haven't you always wanted to go to Nanzhou? No matter what happens this time, I will not leave." Nangong Xianyue looked at her seriously.

Qiao Yisha wanted to ask, what if Ning Wanrou got into trouble again? But she didn't dare. She shook her head and said, "Don't mention Nanzhou. I don't want to go there anymore. I don't want to go there in my lifetime."

"Okay, then let's go somewhere else? Central Continent, Northern Continent...anywhere you want to go, I'll take you there right away."

"I don't want to go anywhere," she looked up at Nangong Xianyue, "Master, please stop doing these things. If you don't love me, doing these things will only make me more sad. It's useless."

He moved his lips, but in the end he didn't say a word.

Qiao Yisha turned and left, "I'm going for a walk alone."

Almost the moment she turned around, tears rolled down her eyes and she bit her lips to suppress her tears. She had actually expected Nangong Xianyue to say that she loved her. She was really crazy.

She walked onto the path, sniffing her nose and pulling petals from the flower bed. Seeing her like that, the servants didn't greet her and just looked at her in silence.

"He just came back a few days ago? Why did you bully him like this again?" The male voice with a slightly nasal tone asked jokingly.

Qiao Yisha looked up and saw Zhu Qingsi in black. His slightly curly hair was longer than before, and the angles of his face were sharper than before.

"Are you waiting for me here again?" she asked while pulling the petals.

"It's really not this time. Let's go out for a walk." Zhu Qingsi took out a pack of tissues from his pocket and handed it to her, "Wipe it off."

"Thank you." She took the tissue and opened it, and a pleasant smell of cedar filled her nose.

Zhu Qingsi hadn't seen her since they separated at Wangyue Group last time. He asked, "What happened after you left last time? Did you encounter any danger?"

Qiaoisa wiped her tears and told him what had happened in the past few days in a simplified manner.

"What? You take him and not me for such a dangerous task?" Zhu Qingsi felt a little jealous when he thought of the handsome man with long hair.

"Why bring you along when you already said it was dangerous?"

"It's because of the danger that I can protect you."
