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

Not long after Qiao Yisha and Luo Xin entered the room, the servants who were dismissed by Nangong Xianyue also came in. They looked at Qiao Yisha's cold face and dared not breathe.

After a while of pushing and shoving, a slightly bolder maid walked up to Luo Xin and said, "Ladies, your luggage has been placed. Would you like to have dinner first or go upstairs to rest for a while?"

Luo Xin looked at Qiao Yisha, who simply replied, "Go upstairs."

"Okay, please follow me." The two maids made a gesture of invitation, then they stood up from the sofa and followed the maids up the spacious spiral staircase.

The two maids originally wanted to take them to two living rooms respectively, but were opposed.

One reason was that Roxine had something to say to Joysa.

Second, Joysa knew that Luo Xing was about to leave, and before she left, Joysa wanted to talk to her more. After all, after Luo Xing left, she might not be able to find anyone to talk to.

Less than a minute after the maid led them into the living room, other servants came in with small desserts, juice, tea and the like. After placing them on the table, they tactfully left together.

Luo Xin looked around and said with emotion: "I thought I might live in a luxurious house in the future, but I never thought I would live in a palace, and then move from the palace to such a magnificent manor."

"So what? It's not yours after all. You don't know when you will be kicked out." Qiao Yisha said disdainfully.

"Then have your own." Luo Xin sat down on the jewel-encrusted armchair, picked up a petal-shaped pastry from the table and put it into her mouth.

Qiaoisa looked at her in confusion. "I don't mean to discourage you. The fact is that even if our whole family works together until death, we can't afford it."

"No, I can't work so hard, and I can't let my family work so hard just to buy a house - so, I want to tell you something incredible." Luo Xin put down the cake, took a sip of juice, and looked at Qiao Yisha seriously.

"what?"

"I might be getting married to someone royal, real royalty."

Qiao Yisha looked at her blankly after hearing this, as if she couldn't digest it all at once. "What did you say? Get married?"

"That's not the point."

"Who is it? It can't be Mogaxianer." Joysa understood that Luo Xing emphasized the words "real royal family", which meant it couldn't be Mogaxianer, he was at most a noble.

"Ivan, he proposed to me last night."

"What?" Qiaosha frowned in shock. "Him? Why? How long have you known each other? Does he love you so much that he wants to marry you? Will you believe him?"

"I don't know whether I should believe it or not," Luo Xin stood up and walked slowly in the open space of the living room. The hem of her skirt dragged on the smooth floor and swayed slightly with her steps.

"But he can bring me wealth, as well as the status and power of our Qiao family. If nothing unexpected happens, our father is no longer a viscount. He may be an earl or even a marquis."

"What? You've already promised him? Is this the condition of the exchange?" Qiao Yisha stood up, her expression clearly showing disapproval.

"This is just his proposal ceremony. I haven't accepted it yet."

"Have you forgotten what happened to me?" Qiao Yisha walked up to her and said to Luo Xin seriously, "Bolo Xun seemed much more reliable than Ivan, but he still betrayed me. I'm not disappointing, but I really can't imagine how Ivan will treat you."

"I am very hesitant, Isa. I will never meet anyone who better meets my criteria for a husband."

Qiao Yisha looked at her seriously: "If a man makes you hesitate, then this is the answer."

"Well, I have to think about it seriously. He gave me a week to think about it."

"Nangong Xianyue promised me to send you back to Zhongzhou first. After you go back, you can tell the rest of the family about this. I believe no one agrees with this."

"Well, if my father asks about you, I'd better not tell the truth, so that they won't worry about you." Luo Xin said.

"Well, I don't know how Ivan and Bo Luoxun are going to deal with this. He clearly said on the phone last time that he would inform our family, but when I spoke to my parents, they had no idea that I had separated from Bo Luoxun."

"I'll go back and take a look at the situation and act accordingly."

"Ah."

While the two were talking, there was a light knock on the door, and a maid walked in cautiously, "Ladies, it's time for dinner."

"Got it. I'll be right there." Joysa responded.

The servant led the two to the dining room on the first floor. Butler Jiang was standing beside the dining table. When he saw them, he bowed slightly and said, "Hello, young ladies. My last name is Jiang, and I am the butler here."

Qiao Yisha nodded politely, "Hello."

There were only Joysa and Roxanne sitting at the huge dining table.

After dinner, Qiao Yisha asked Butler Jiang: "Did Nangong Xianyue tell you about sending Luo Xin away?"

Butler Jiang was extremely surprised that the woman in front of him actually called Nangong Xianyue by name. He immediately replied, "Mr. Nangong has instructed me to do so. I have arranged a private plane. Miss Luo Xin can leave tomorrow."

Qiao Yisha nodded, pulled Luo Xin out the door, and wanted to take a walk on the lawn. Seeing this, Butler Jiang immediately asked the maid to put on their coats.

The lawn outside the door was endless, and some white frost had accumulated on the green grass.

"I'm leaving tomorrow. Can you be alone?" Luo Xin asked worriedly.

"I just left five days later than you. I've endured so many days, so five days are nothing." Qiao Yisha shrugged.

"That's right." Luo Xin said, turned her head inadvertently, and then stood still.

"What's wrong?" Qiaoisha looked back in surprise and saw three or four servants following the two of them not far away.

Among them were the palace attendants left behind by Nangong Xianyue.

She frowned and raised her voice and shouted, "What are you doing?"

A servant replied, "Mr. Nangong is worried about you, so he asked us to take good care of you."

"I think it's more like supervision." Qiao Yisha glanced at them coldly and pulled Luo Xing back.

It was really uncomfortable to be watched, so Joysa would rather stay in the living room.

Not long after returning to the living room, Butler Jiang knocked on the door and came in, holding a box in his hands that looked quite heavy.

"What's wrong, Butler Jiang?" Qiao Yisha asked impatiently. She was now fed up with Nangong Xianyue.

Butler Jiang placed the box on the coffee table in front of Qiao Yisha and replied, "Mr. Nangong said it was your gift and asked me to pass it on. I put it here. Just tell me if you need anything."

After saying this, she left the living room with a professional smile on her face.

"Don't you want to take a look?" Luo Xin asked.

Joysa looked at the red velvet box in front of her, reached out to open the lock, and opened the lid. There were a few books lying on the velvet inside.
