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

"I brought you some gifts, you will definitely like them." Zhu Qingsi placed two suitcases and several shopping bags on the table one by one.

Joysa opened the shopping bag, revealing exquisite dresses and shoes.

"It's beautiful, I like it very much, thank you."

"Look inside the box again."

Qiaoisha reached out and opened the lock with a "click", flipped open the lid, and her eyes widened in shock when she saw what was inside. It was a gun.

"How about this gift?" Zhu Qingsi raised his eyebrows.

"That's good. In fact, I already have one." Joysa still has the gun that Captain Ou gave her.

"It's better to have too many weapons than to have too many. Keep them for self-defense."

"Then the other box... won't be the same."

The suitcase next to it was a little smaller, but the things inside were obviously not simple.

Qiaosha opened the lid and saw two black butterfly knives lying quietly inside. They were pitch black, cold and hard, and exuded a murderous aura.

"This?" Qiao Yisha frowned in confusion. Do these people have an obsession with butterfly knives? Why does it seem like everyone I know likes this thing?

"You can't take out a gun at any time, but this is different, and I think it suits you well." These two butterfly knives were used by Qiaosha four years ago. He kept them and carried them with him. Now, they have been returned to their original owners.

"Really..." Joysa picked up the butterfly knife, which was heavy and substantial.

A memory that I had never thought about intentionally came to my mind. The oil painting I saw in the Firth Garden showed Mrs. Nangong holding a butterfly knife of this kind.

"Don't you like it?" Zhu Qingsi asked when he saw that she looked a little depressed.

"No... this is good."

"That's good. From today on, I will teach you how to..."

Before Zhu Qingsi finished speaking, the butterfly knife in Qiao Yisha's hand was already flying at her fingertips. Her movements were skillful and smooth, and the sound of cold and hard metal colliding echoed in the space.

Qiao Yisha put it in the box and looked up at him, "What did you just say? It was too noisy and I couldn't hear you."

Zhu Qingsi shook his head in astonishment: "It's okay... I wanted you to... teach me how to use it so smoothly. When I was learning, I cut my fingers many times."

Qiao Yisha shook her head in surprise: "I don't know either. I just think it's very simple. I know how to use it right away. Maybe it's a natural talent."

Zhu Qingsi gave a thumbs up: "As expected of you, it seems that I made the right gift."

Joysha recovered well from her injuries, and when they no longer affected her life, she started looking for a job.

Zhu Qingsi came back from going out and stood in front of Qiao Yisha mysteriously, "I bought a little pet, guess what it is?"

Qiao Yisha put down the magazine in her hand and said, "Dog?"

Zhu Qingsi shook his head.

"cat?"

Zhu Qingsi still shook his head.

"bird?"

"turtle?"

"rabbit?"

……

After guessing more than ten in a row, even the chicken and the panda were mentioned, Zhu Qingsi just shook his head.

Zhu Qingsi smiled slightly: "Look forward to it, it's outside the door now, I'll call it in."

"Oh."

"Xiao Bai, come here."

Joysa stared at the floor, waiting to see what kind of little pet it was, or whether it was a hedgehog that would roll in. As a result, the 'little' pet slowly walked in, scaring Joysa so much that her face turned pale.

"Xiaobai, this is my sister." Zhu Qingsi introduced.

Qiao Yisha threw the magazine aside, turned over behind the sofa and revealed a pair of eyes: "Don't come over here, Zhu Qingsi, what are you doing?"

"Isn't it cute?"

"Look for yourself, what's so cute about this?" Joysa shouted, pointing at the majestic white tiger standing in the living room.

That’s right, the ‘little’ pet that Zhu Qingsi was talking about was a white tiger.

Zhu Qingsi touched the white tiger's head and said, "It is very humane and won't bite. Come and touch it."

"I won't." Qiao Yisha swallowed and stared at the white tiger, not daring to move.

"It's really well-behaved." Zhu Qingsi walked towards Qiao Yisha, and the white tiger followed him.

"Don't come over here, ahhhh." Seeing the white tiger getting closer and closer, Qiao Yisha's legs went weak and she almost fell to her knees.

Zhu Qingsi patted Baihu's head and said, "Go and say hello to your sister."

The white tiger came over with its tail wagging and a gurgling sound in its throat. When the man and the tiger were less than half a meter apart, Qiao Yisha was so scared that her mind went blank and she pounced in the direction of Zhu Qingsi.

Zhu Qingsi was suddenly hugged tightly, and his whole body froze. He obviously didn't expect this scene. He raised his hands mechanically to hug Qiao Yisha back and said in a hoarse voice: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here."

"Let it go!" Qiao Yisha closed her eyes tightly and held on to Zhu Qingsi's coat tightly.

Zhu Qingsi said nothing, but took Qiao Yisha's hand and placed it on the head of the white tiger beside him.

Qiaosha felt a soft touch on her fingertips. She turned her head and saw the white tiger squinting its eyes, waiting for her touch.

"You see, it likes you very much."

Qiao Yisha let go of Zhu Qingsi and hesitated to touch the white tiger. The white tiger did not resist at all and could even be considered docile.

"Really?" Joysa breathed a sigh of relief. "I was so scared. Why is it different from other tigers?"

Zhu Qingsi rubbed his fingertips, which still had the touch of Qiao Yisha's wrist.

"I bought it from the zoo. The staff originally wanted to release it into the wild, but it had completely lost its animal nature. If it was released back into the mountains, it would only die."

"Poor little thing," Joysa gradually overcame her fear, "Looking at it this way, it's quite cute."

Zhu Qingsi nodded, "Yes, he is only one year old, still a baby."

"He's already this tall at one year old, so he'll be as tall as us in two years."

"It's possible," Zhu Qingsi squatted down, pointed at Qiao Yisha, and said to Baihu, "Call me sister."

White Tiger: "Woo woo."

"Wow, you're so good," Qiao Yisha pointed at Zhu Qingsi and said to Baihu, "Call me brother."

White Tiger: "Ahhh."

"I'm sorry, you must have been scared just now." Zhu Qingsi turned his head and looked at Qiao Yisha and said.

"It's okay, I'm not that timid."

Zhu Qingsi stuffed a doll into Xiaobai's pocket for him to play with, and pulled Qiao Yisha to sit on the sofa, "I have something to tell you."

"It just so happens that I have something to say too. You go first." Qiao Yisha said.

"I'm going to Dongzhou tomorrow, so I'll let Xiaobai accompany you for the next few days."

"Dongzhou? What are you going there for?" Qiao Yisha asked curiously.

"I have an old friend. Her death anniversary is coming, and I want to go see her." Zhu Qingsi looked at Qiao Yisha deeply. Even though he had heard from Huating that there was nothing unusual about the body, he still wanted to see it with his own eyes.

"Okay, I understand." Joysa nodded.

"What is it you want to talk about?"

"I found a job," Qiao Yisha took out her cell phone and showed the job posting to Zhu Qingsi, "Look."

"No," Zhu Qingsi decisively disagreed, "The person who shot you last time has not been identified yet. It's too dangerous to go out and show your face now."

"I don't know when I'll know the truth. I can't hide forever, right?"

"But……"
