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

"I understand. I will cooperate with Doctor Wu and find the top compounder in Dongzhou to speed up the compounding process." Zhuang Qianchen assured Nangong Xianyue.

Nangong Xianyue turned and left the office, walking into Qiao Yisha's room with heavy steps. The medicines and machines beside her bed had been removed because they had almost no effect.

He gazed at Joysa with deep affection and sadness, with almost invisible tears in the corners of his eyes under the dim light.

She had not been cherished yet, and he had not expressed his love to her, but death was so close to her. Was this a punishment for her or for him?

Qiao Yisha suddenly opened her eyes slowly and saw Nangong Xianyue looking at her with a face full of pity. Her head felt dizzy and she thought she was dreaming because he had not appeared in front of her for three days.

"Master, is that you?"

"I'm here." Nangong Xianyue quickly adjusted her expression and held her hand. She felt a soft touch on her hand, and then she realized that it was not a dream.

"I don't want to stay in the hospital anymore. I want to go back to the main castle." Her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible if you didn't get close to her.

"Okay, go back. I'll take you back now." Nangong Xianyue lifted the quilt, took off his coat and wrapped it around her, then picked her up sideways.

He could hardly feel the weight of Joysa in his arms. She seemed so light that she would float away at any time. His bones ached. He held Joysa in his arms and walked steadily towards the main castle area step by step.

"Aren't we going to take a car?" Joysa asked.

"No, I want to carry you back."

"Thank you for your hard work, young master." Qiao Yisha said, leaning on his broad chest.

"It's not hard at all. If little Isa is willing, I will carry you wherever you want to go in the future."

"I'm really skinny and light now, right? Not pretty at all."

"Who said that? Our Isa is the most beautiful. She is still beautiful even when she is thin."

"Prettier than anyone you've ever seen?"

“Yes,” Nangong Xianyue nodded, tears almost unstoppable. He looked straight ahead, not daring to look into Qiao Yisha’s eyes. “Yisha is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen, the most beautiful in the world.”

Qiaosha gritted her teeth and closed her eyes to stop the tears from falling. Suddenly, a drop of warm liquid dripped onto her forehead, and she could hardly hold back her tears.

Nangong Xianyue held Qiao Yisha in his arms, hoping that this road would be longer and longer, so long that it would be impossible to finish the journey in a lifetime. But no matter how slowly he walked, the main castle area still slowly appeared before his eyes.

When the servants on night watch saw the two of them, all their movements stopped and no one spoke. They watched them go upstairs. The atmosphere was extremely solemn.

-

Nangong Xianyue held a dance party for her at Falls Garden as promised, and it was extremely lively and sensational.

In addition to some upper-class gentlemen and ladies, she also invited all the friends she mentioned, including Bo Luoxun, Zhu Qingsi, A Wu, Ning Wanrou, Xia Li, Xue Ren... and even Qin Li who was far away in Area C. With the ability of the Nangong family, it was not difficult to find these people and send them invitations in a short time.

Nangong Xianyue also called Nangong Jinxing to come back.

Nangong Jinxing had been busy with business in Beizhou. When she learned about what happened to Nangong Xianyue in Dongzhou, Nangong Xianyue had already returned to Firth. He asked her to continue her work in Beizhou and there was no need to come back specially.

When she heard Nangong Xianyue's serious tone on the phone, she knew that something might have happened to Qiao Yisha, so she immediately asked someone to prepare a private plane to fly back.

The party was very lively that day. Qiao Yisha strongly requested the nurse to inject her with a whole bottle of anesthetic, because Nangong Xianyue usually only allowed her to inject half a bottle, and he was worried that the drug would lose its effect too early.

But today, Qiao Yisha was firm in her attitude, and Nangong Xianyue had no choice but to nod and agree.

The medicine took effect quickly, and she was able to stand up and jump around soon. Oh, by the way, she didn't know that it was an anesthetic. Zhuang Qianchen said that it was a special medicine, specially developed for her condition. She was half-believing and half-doubting.

Nangong Xianyue ordered someone to deliver the handmade dress made for her to the living room. She had lost a lot of weight and her measurements were re-measured recently.

Four or five servants pushed the mannequin into the living room. When Joysa saw the dress, her eyes lit up with surprise.

"Oh my God, it's so beautiful." Joysa couldn't help but reach out and touch the dress. She couldn't see the color, only the shining light, which was extremely dazzling in her black and white world.

The dress was a white, one-shoulder, long-sleeved style. Under the crystal chandelier, tens of thousands of pure gems embellishing the hem of the skirt reflected the light. The two-meter-long train behind the skirt was elegant and grand. It was luxurious, minimalist, yet had a sense of design. Joysa had never seen such a beautiful dress.

The servants and Hua Ting beside him couldn't help but exclaim, "Oh my God, my eyes are so bright that I can't open them. Did the young master find the clothes that the princess wears for you?"

"Do you like it?" Nangong Xianyue asked gently.

"Yeah," Joysa nodded, "I like it. What color is it?"

"It's white, try it on." Nangong Xianyue's mood improved when he saw that she was satisfied.

The servants took the dress off the mannequin and several people carried it into the cloakroom.

With the help of several servants, Qiaosha successfully put on the dress. The size fit her perfectly and it was very comfortable to wear without feeling cumbersome at all. Perhaps the fabric chosen was not too thick because of her weak body.

The long sleeves just happened to cover the bruises on her arms. Everything was tailor-made for her.

She looked at herself in the mirror and smiled happily yet bitterly.

Hua Ting lifted her skirt for her, his eyes full of amazement, "You are so beautiful, Miss Isa. The young master will definitely think you are beautiful when he sees you."

Joysa lifted her front swing, turned around and walked out the door.

When she walked in front of Nangong Xianyue, she was the only one in his eyes. Everything around him became transparent. Her amber eyes looked at him with a slight smile. He felt that he had never been so satisfied.

Nangong Xianyue slowly walked up to her, held her hands with both of his, and looked at her lovingly, "Very beautiful."

He pulled her hands up and kissed the backs of both her hands.

Seeing this, the servants quietly left the living room, leaving them some space to be alone.

Qiaoisha lowered her head slightly, and her curled eyelashes cast two shadows on her face, making her look extremely charming.

He couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her slightly pale lips.

Joysa realized that she had moved slightly away from the subject. "No."

Nangong Xianyue paused, then smiled with the corners of her mouth curled, "Okay, if Yisha doesn't want to, then we won't kiss."

He let go of her hand and hugged her tightly in his arms, with such force that Joysa was slightly suffocated, but she did not speak, allowing herself to immerse herself in this desperate and warm emotion.

After a long time, Hua Ting knocked on the door and said, "I'm sorry to bother you, but if Miss Isa doesn't get dressed, I'm afraid she won't have enough time."

Nangong Xianyue let her go and ordered, "Come in."

Hua Ting came in with a few maids. The maids put their makeup boxes next to the dressing table. Qiao Yisha sat over and looked at Nangong Xianyue in the mirror and said, "You should go downstairs first. It would be inappropriate if the master is not here."

Nangong Xianyue nodded gently, "Okay, I'll come up to pick you up later."
