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

"Thank you for your warning, but I know what I should do." Qiao Yisha smiled with a smile on her face. The implication was that you don't need to mind your own business.

After saying this, she said goodbye to Baiquan and turned into the palace.

After taking a shower, she lay down on the bed. Nangong Xianyue was not there, so she didn't care where she was and fell asleep as usual.

When she woke up, standing under the golden fence at the foot of the bed were, besides Ingo, her maid who usually followed her closely, another person, Baiquan.

She was not wearing a maid's uniform, but still in a white dress. She had an outstanding and cold temperament, and stood respectfully at the end of the bed.

"Why are you here?" Joysa frowned.

Bai Quan smiled slightly, "The young master was afraid that you would be bored, so he asked me to come and keep you company."

"……thank you."

Qiao Yisha got off the bed. Yingge came forward to support her and help her get clothes for her to change. Baiquan raised his hand and said, "Let me do it."

Yingge handed the clothes to Baiquan and stepped back.

Baiquan pulled the curtains shut and said with a smile, "Take it off."

"What exactly do you want to do? You can't be someone who likes to serve others, right?" Joysa quickly untied the straps of her nightgown from her shoulders, and the nightgown instantly fell on her instep.

Baiquan unzipped the skirt in his hand, handed it to her, and helped her put it on.

"I have no choice. It's the master's order." She turned Qiao Yisha over and zipped her up. "I will serve you while you are with the master."

"No need, I'll go talk to him, you just go about your business." Qiao Yisha turned and looked at her and said.

"No, there's nothing fun here. We've seen everything we should see. We can still talk." Bai Quan said with a smile.

"It's up to you." She pushed aside the curtain and walked out.

While eating, Baiquan was watching her from the side, acting as a maid and doing her job conscientiously.

But she was not as quiet as the maid.

"Master, don't you want to eat?"

“I don’t know,” Joysa said.

"I came early on purpose, thinking I could say hello to the young master." Bai Quan said with some regret.

"Maybe he didn't come back at night. I don't know."

"How could you not know? You live here!" Bai Quan was anxious.

Qiao Yisha looked at the girl in front of her with a slightly immature face and asked, "Do you like him?"

Baiquan's face flushed, "No... no, I... how could it be possible, I am just his subordinate."

"But your expression betrays you."

"You're not angry?" Bai Quan asked curiously.

"Why am I angry?"

"I...he...you..." Baiquan stammered.

"What does it have to do with me that you like him?"

"Aren't you the young master's fiancée?" Bai Quan asked in surprise.

"Who said that?" She stopped eating and looked up at her.

"Everyone in this palace knows this, otherwise why would these servants be so respectful to you."

"……I'm not."

Baiquan's eyes lit up, and then he acted as if nothing had happened, "Oh, it's not the best. Liking the young master is not good for you. You don't deserve to be the one standing by his side."

"Oh," Joysa nodded, her amber eyes rolling, "Even if I don't like him, he won't like you either."

"You... are going too far. What gives you the right to say that?" Bai Quan's face turned red with anger.

"Because you are just a servant." Qiaoisha knew how harsh her words were, but if the other party made her uncomfortable, she would fight back. She was not the soft persimmon that could be bullied by anyone.

Bai Quan stopped talking. She continued to ask, "Why do you call him Young Master? I see that everyone else calls him His Majesty, but you and Qiu Yi are the only ones who call him Young Master."

"Because Mr. Qiu Yi and I are not under the jurisdiction of His Majesty of Xizhou. We are his personal subordinates and are under the jurisdiction of the Nangong family." Bai Quan sounded a little proud when he said this, as if to say, see, I am Nangong Xianyue's confidant.

Qiao Yisha still didn't react and nodded again.

Bai Quan sighed and said, "You eat, I'll go out for a walk."

After she left, Ingo stood closer.

Joysa asked, "Ingo, who is she?"

Yingge knew that Qiao Yisha was not asking about her name but her identity, so he answered, "I'm not sure either. She doesn't have much contact with us. I heard that your majesty saved her life outside two years ago. She is very loyal to your majesty, and your majesty seems to trust her."

At this point, Yingge was afraid that she would misunderstand, so he added, "But we all know that she is your Majesty's subordinate, not any other relationship."

But Qiaosha was thinking, this girl looked only eighteen years old, so two years ago, she must have been sixteen.

That evening, Joysa and Baiquan were swinging slowly on the swing in the garden, and Baiquan sighed again.

"Go back if you're tired. Stop sighing. It makes people upset." Qiao Yisha turned and said to her.

"No, why hasn't the young master come back yet?" Bai Quan looked into the distance eagerly.

"..."

"When does the young master usually come back?"

"I don't know. I don't know him very well."

"What did you say? You live with him, and you say you are not familiar with him?" Bai Quan widened his eyes.

"I'm not familiar with him. He often stays out all night or goes out before dawn. I don't have much interaction with him."

"How can I do this? How can my body bear it?" Bai Quan frowned. "You, you live under the same roof with the young master, can't you care about him?"

"He's an adult now, he knows what to do. Besides, as the head of a country, isn't it his responsibility to shoulder the responsibility?" Qiao Yisha explained patiently.

"You are just cold and emotionless, don't make excuses!"

After two days of contact, Qiaosha's impression of Bai Quan changed from a cool and capable career woman to an often unreasonable little girl. She was not as cold as she was when she first met her. Instead, she was very spoiled most of the time, which was very consistent with her age.

"Don't argue with a kid." Qiao Yisha snorted.

"You are the child, I have already passed the coming-of-age ceremony!" Bai Quan said angrily.

"Some people's cerebellum development is not keeping up, and it is normal for them to look like a child."

"You...how could the young master like someone like you!"

"Then you should stop him from liking it."

While the two were bickering, the servants around them bowed in one direction and said, "Your Majesty."

The two turned around and saw Nangong Xianyue walking towards them, followed by several uniformed followers.

He was wearing a suit, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. His long and well-proportioned legs were wrapped in suit pants and he was wearing a pair of short boots. He looked slender and noble. With the majestic palace behind him as a backdrop, he looked like a gentleman who had walked out of a medieval oil painting.

Qiaosha was in a daze for a moment. It felt like she hadn't seen him for a long time, but in fact it was only more than a day.

Bai Quan, who was standing by, quickly stood up, suppressed the smile on his face, turned back into the cold-blooded killer, and said calmly, "Master."

Only she knew that her heart was beating wildly.

Nangong Xianyue nodded to her lightly, walked up to Qiao Yisha, looked down at her, and smiled even more charmingly, "What are you talking about? I heard your voices from far away."
