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

The injured person was pushed into the operating room. Qiao Yisha made her preoperative preparations and walked into the operating room, recalling the details and steps of Dr. Jia's operation in her mind.

But the next second, the scene before her stopped her from thinking.

The injured person lying on the bed with a pale face and covered in blood was none other than Zhu Qingsi, who had not been seen for a month.

Joysa strode over to make sure she was not dazzled.

Panic and worry flashed through her mind, but she knew there was no time to think about it, so she quickly calmed down and started the operation immediately.

Before coming in, she was still thinking that if she failed, she could only blame the injured person for having bad luck in meeting her, a surgeon with no practical experience.

But now, there is only one belief, which is that Zhu Qingsi must be saved.

The blood-soaked cotton wool piled higher and higher in the tray.

Disinfection, anesthesia, tissue cutting, bullet removal, suturing, medicine application, and bandaging.

Unexpectedly, everything went smoothly, and it didn't seem like it was the first time for him to do this.

After the instrument showed that Zhu Qingsi's heartbeat and breathing were gradually returning to normal, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked the nurse to push him into the general ward.

After he was settled, he was given an IV.

-

Central Continent.

"Ivan." King Patrick walked into the study.

"Father." Ivan stood up and nodded slightly.

"Well, how is your relationship with the concubine lately?" Patrick asked, with his hands behind his back.

A dark light flashed in Ivan's eyes, "Thank you for your concern, father. I'm fine."

"Well," Patrick nodded, "This concubine is quite sensible. She knows that you are busy with government affairs and never pesters you."

"...Yes." It was not that he was not pestering her, it was obvious that he was unwilling to even meet her.

"I came here today to ask you if you have a candidate for the princess."

"I've been busy with government affairs and haven't had time to do this." Patrick originally asked him to make the selection within a week, but he has not responded yet.

"That's right. You are different from Bo Luoxun, that guy who only cares about love."

Patrick patted Ivan on the shoulder and said, "You must always remember the Patrick family's mission to promote Central Continent."

"Understood, father."

"The South Continent is growing stronger and stronger, and the surrounding small island nations are gradually being taken back by them," Patrick narrated slowly, with worry flashing between his eyebrows, "Who knows if the next step will be to invade Central Continent."

"The new king of Xizhou has taken office and is no longer our ally. Dongzhou has always only guarded its own territory and never participated in wars. So, what should we do and what should we choose? Do you understand?"

Patrick's words hit Ivan's heart hard, and the hesitation in his eyes disappeared.

Ai Fan nodded: "Yes, I will give you a reply within seven days."

After Patrick left, Ivan sat back at his desk, with a photo of him and Rosen taken on their wedding day in the upper right corner.

Ai Fan ordered his attendant, "Go and invite the concubine."

In the piano room.

Under the crystal chandelier, a young and beautiful girl wearing an intricate and gorgeous dress was playing the piano with great concentration in the center of the huge room.

The fingertips pressed the piano keys fluently, and pleasant music flowed out. The scene was like a royal palace concert, so beautiful and breathtaking that it attracted many servants passing by to hurry up and watch.

But the girl who was playing the piano had a numb expression on her doll-like delicate face. She didn't care about anything in the outside world and played the piano like a puppet.

The attendant didn't have the heart to ruin this beautiful scene, but he had to obey Ivan's order and stepped forward to interrupt: "Your Highness Luo Xin."

Luo Xin's fingers suddenly stopped playing, and the air became quiet in an instant.

She still lowered her eyes and stroked the piano keys, "What's the matter?"

"Your Highness asks you to go to the study."

Luo Xin followed the servant through the long corridors and finally arrived at the door of Ivan's study. After the servant invited Luo Xin in, he quietly left.

"What do you want me to do?" Luo Xin picked up the hot drink handed to her by the maid with a calm expression.

"Come on, Rosin," Ivan, who was sitting on the sofa, patted the seat next to him, with a gentle smile on his face as a husband, "There is something you have to help me check."

Luo Xin sat over, looking puzzled. What could he possibly have to check for himself?

The servant turned off the main light in the study, and then the giant screen that occupied one wall lit up, showing a photo of a woman and her personal information next to it, which was extremely detailed.

"What exactly do you want me to do?" Luo Xin frowned, looking puzzled.

Ivan spread his hands and said, "Obviously, I should get married again, but I don't have anyone to choose yet."

Luo Xin instantly understood what the information on the screen was. She pointed at the screen with an absurd look on her face: "You want me to help you choose?"

"Of course," Ivan put his hand on the back of the sofa behind Luo Xin, enveloping her in his breath.

"After all, if you don't like her, I'll have a lot more trouble in the future."

Luo Xin gritted her teeth and frowned, "It's unreasonable." Then she stood up and was about to leave.

However, before she could stand up completely, a pair of large hands grabbed her slender waist, causing her to fall back onto the sofa, and her body was firmly restrained, preventing her from moving at all.

"Let me go! This is your own business, why should I do this?" Luo Xin glared at him.

"I am your husband, and my business is your business." Ivan lifted Roxine's chin and made her look at the screen.

"Be obedient and watch carefully."

The attendant looked straight ahead as he introduced the information to them while switching the images on the screen.

Because she was too absorbed in watching, Luo Xin didn't notice that Ivan's hands that were restraining her gradually loosened their strength and turned into an embrace.

Ai Fan lowered his eyes and was surprised to see Luo Xin's serious expression.

I had thought she would make a scene, argue, and get angry, but I had never expected that she would be able to accept the fact that he was going to remarry so calmly.

That's great, isn't it? It saves a lot of trouble.

He deliberately ignored the nameless anger in his heart.

After the attendant finished his introduction, he left the study, leaving the two of them alone in the space.

"How is it?" Ivan calmly withdrew his arms from around Luo Xin.

"They're all good," Luo Xin said without hesitation, "Each one of them is more than enough for you."

"Unfortunately, I can only have one princess, and not everyone can be her."

Luo Xin's expression suddenly turned cold. Was this a mockery of her having coveted this position? "Then you better open your eyes and choose carefully."

"Who do you think is the best match for me?"

Luo Xin just wanted to end this farce quickly, so she casually pulled a photo from the table and threw it to him, "She has the looks, family background, and abilities. If you don't like it, take a look at it yourself. I'm leaving now."

After Luo Xin left, Ivan picked up the photo and shook his head, "Silly Luo Xin, if she came, you would be eaten to the bone."
