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

Hua Ting put away the bracelet and stood behind Qiao Yisha to push the swing for her. "Ms. Yisha, I have read a novel before."

"how?"

"I just remember that in the novel, the heroine wanted to be independent, so she went out to find a job. Of course, I think Miss Isa, you definitely don't need this little money. After she went out to work, the hero obviously cared more for her. Miss Isa, do you want to give it a try?"

"Pfft..." Qiao Yisha laughed out loud after hearing this. "First of all, I don't want anyone to boss me around. Secondly, in the situation you described, either the hero didn't give her enough sense of security, or the heroine was afraid that something might happen and the hero couldn't be trusted. Otherwise, who would go and ask for trouble?"

She had a card to which Nan Gong Xianyue would regularly transfer a huge sum of money. Even when she was in Area C and put the card in Firth Garden, the transfer never stopped.

She never worried about that.

"That's right. Firth Garden is so far from the city. It will be difficult to cultivate feelings if you leave early and come back late."

Speaking of this, Qiao Yisha suddenly remembered that she was brought back by Nangong Xianyue when she was twelve years old. She ate his food, drank his drinks and lived in his house. But no matter how angry he was, he would never ask her to repay him, or threaten her with not giving her food if she didn't obey.

On the contrary, apart from the hardships she suffered in the Wangyue Group, she lived a life of luxury in Firth Garden. She accepted these material things with peace of mind and never thought of giving him anything in return.

Although the materials spent on her were not a drop in the bucket for the Nangong family, her fate was indeed changed because of Nangong Xianyue. She went from an orphan who was about to wander to a well-known lady. Even if we don't talk about love, the gratitude alone is something she can never repay.

Joysa stood up and looked towards the main castle area.

"What's wrong Miss Isa?"

She didn't reply, but ran towards the main castle area with her skirt lifted up. They had just had dinner together, but she missed Nangong Xianyue terribly at the moment and wanted to see him very much.

"Slow down, Miss Isa, wait for me."

Due to the nature of her job, Qiao Yisha has good physical fitness and soon left Huating far behind.

She ran into the main castle, walked up the corridor and saw Nangong Xianyue standing in the corridor on the third floor. She had a slender back and a black cane in her hand. She stood in front of the window, not knowing what she was thinking.

Hearing footsteps, he turned around and saw it was Qiao Yisha. He smiled at her and said, "You come back so soon—" Before he could finish his words, he was hugged tightly.

"What's wrong?" Nangong Xianyue asked while hugging her back.

"Why are you so nice to me?" She buried her head in his arms and spoke in a muffled voice.

"Why do you say this suddenly?"

"I just suddenly thought, if I hadn't met you, where would I be now? Would I be wandering around, without a fixed place to live, without relatives or a lover around me?"

"Don't think about things that won't happen, Isa." Nangong Xianyue patted her on the back.

"But I'm going to be alone again soon, right?"

"Why do you say that?"

"You are going to Xizhou, and I can't see you anymore."

Nangong Xianyue laughed, held her shoulders, looked at her and said, "Who told you that I was going to Xizhou? Was this what made you feel bad yesterday?"

"You're not going?" Qiao Yisha asked in surprise, "You're not going to Xizhou? Really?"

"My home is here, why would I go to Xizhou?"

"After all, it's about becoming a king. I don't think any man can refuse that."

Qiao Yisha couldn't help laughing out loud with joy. Her worries over the past two days were unnecessary. Nangong Xianyue would not leave, and she would not be unable to see him. She leaned against the wall with a smile on her face.

"It's hard for most men to say no, but I'm not interested in power."

His power in Dongzhou is already above ten thousand people, so there is no need for him to pursue any more power. Wouldn't it be better to be a king who sounds like he has little hair and live a leisurely life?

"Well... since you're not going to Xizhou, can you accompany me to play when you're free?"

"Is there somewhere you want to go? I can go with you when I get better."

"Yes, I do," Qiao Yisha nodded, "I want to go to the desert Gobi in South China."

"Okay, let's go next month." He agreed without much hesitation.

"Are you really willing to accompany me to such a far place?" Qiao Yisha felt a little touched. Nanzhou is the farthest continent from Dongzhou. Not only does one have to take a plane, but also a ship. She didn't expect Nangong Xianyue to agree to her so easily and give her all his time. He obviously doesn't love her, does he?

"Why not?"

"Thank you, Master. I love you." Qiao Yisha leaned on his chest and listened to his heartbeat quietly.

-

More than half a month had passed in the blink of an eye. Just as Qiao Yisha had hoped, she and Nangong Xianyue seemed to be in love every day, at least on the surface. Firth Garden was as peaceful and harmonious as ever.

Qiao Yisha excitedly ran to Nangong Xianyue with the strategy sheet and showed it to him, "Let's go the day after tomorrow. The weather there won't be too hot. Then I can wear a pretty dress and take more photos with you."

Nangong Xianyue glanced at him and said, "It's up to you to decide, but you don't have to prepare anything. I'll have someone arrange it in advance." Then she lowered her head and flipped through the newspaper.

Joysa's enthusiasm was slightly dampened, but she immediately cheered up. At least he was willing to accompany her, and it wouldn't be a big deal if he didn't make a plan with her. Thinking of this, she lay back on the table and carefully studied what skirt to wear.

Qiu Yi walked in from outside, saw this harmonious and peaceful scene, looked down at the phone in his hand, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

“Just say it if you have something to say.” Nangong Xianyue didn’t even raise her head.

"It's okay." Qiu Yi turned and left.

Nangong Xianyue narrowed her eyes as she looked at his back, then put down the newspaper and walked out.

"Master, why did you come out?"

"Did you have something to say just now?"

"No." Qiu Yi smiled.

"Is there any news about Wanrou?"

Qiu Yi was stunned. Nothing could escape his eyes.

"Yes, but Master, you shouldn't need to know now, right?" In their eyes, he had settled down with Qiao Yisha and was no longer thinking about Ning Wanrou.

"How is she? Where is she now?" Nangong Xianyue ignored him and asked directly.

"Ms. Ning... followed Long Junshen back to the Long family..."

Nangong Xianyue frowned, "Old Master Long doesn't like her, so why did Long Junshen take her there?"

"Because... because Miss Ning is about to give birth." After Qiu Yi said this, he carefully observed Nangong Xianyue's expression, which was indeed not very pretty.

"Even if she gave birth to the Long family's child, the Long family will not let her in." Nangong Xianyue said in a deep voice.

"Master, this is not something we should worry about. Just prepare well for your trip to Nanzhou with Miss Isa."

“When will it be your turn to teach me how to do things?” Nangong Xianyue looked at him coldly, “Qiu Yi, you have become quite courageous.”

"I dare not, Master. I am just... afraid of Miss Isa..."

"Don't talk nonsense. When is Ning Wanrou's due date?"

“At the end of the month or the beginning of next month.”

There was still time. He could make it in time after spending half a month with Qiao Yisha in Nanzhou.

"Have you prepared everything for the trip to Nanzhou?"

"Everything is ready."

A message suddenly popped up on Qiao Yisha’s phone in the room. It was from Chu Jingli.

[Ning Wanrou has returned to the Long family and is due to give birth at the end of this month.]

Her finger paused on the message, then deleted it. She used to resent Ning Wanrou, but now that Nangong Xianyue was fine, she didn't want to care about those right and wrongs anymore. She was already very content with her current life.

The night before departure, Joysa was so excited that she couldn't sleep and rolled around in bed.

"Oh Master, I'm so excited what should I do? I haven't been on a long trip with you for a long time."

"If you don't sleep now, you won't have energy tomorrow. Close your eyes and go to sleep." The air conditioner was on in the room. Nangong Xianyue covered her with a thin quilt and held her in his arms. Only then did Qiao Yisha calm down and gradually fell asleep.

Nangong Xianyue withdrew his hand, got out of bed, walked to the window frame and opened it, with a cigar between his fingers and a hint of worry between his brows.

Giving birth... She wanted to give birth. He knew that giving birth was an extremely dangerous thing. It would take away at least half of one's life. His mother died of complications during childbirth when she gave birth to Nangong Jinxing.

No matter what, he had to go and see her leave the delivery room safely.

He put out his cigar, closed the window and lay back on the bed.

The next day we set off at 2pm, with six vehicles waiting in front of the main fort area.

The bodyguards were in the four cars at the back. Qiu Yi, Hua Ting and several servants got in the second car, while Nangong Xianyue and Qiao Yisha got in the first car.

Sitting in the car, Qiao Yisha looked at the long line of cars behind her and asked, "Do we have to bring so many people when we go out for fun?"

"Just in case of any accidents, it would be nice to take them out to play if nothing unexpected happens."

"Too."

The private airport of Falls Garden was not far away, only half an hour's drive away. The group stopped at the airport, where a private plane that could accommodate all of them was waiting with its door open.

The bodyguards boarded the plane in an orderly manner. The phone in Qiu Yi's hand suddenly vibrated. He picked it up and his expression changed slightly. He gritted his teeth and pretended not to see it, but his expression did not escape Nangong Xianyue's eyes.

He asked Qiao Yisha to wait for her on the plane first, and walked up to Qiu Yi, "What's going on? Whose news is that?"

"Nothing, Master, let's go first."

"Qiu Yi, have I been too good to you and made you disobey me again and again? I'll ask you one last time, whose news?" He reached out and grabbed Qiu Yi's collar, threateningly.

"Yes...they were sent to monitor the Long family."

"Go on, is there something wrong with Wanrou?"

"She has signs of premature labor and has been sent to the obstetrics and gynecology department of Long's Private Hospital."

Anger appeared on Nangong Xianyue's evil face, and she punched Qiu Yi in the face. Qiu Yi staggered and almost fell to the ground.

"Damn it, you actually dared to hide this kind of thing from me. If you dare to act on your own again, get out of the Nangong family."

Nangong Xianyue said coldly and turned to walk towards the car.

Seeing that they hadn't boarded the plane for a long time, Qiao Yisha got off the plane to see what was going on. As a result, she saw that Qiu Yi's mouth was red and swollen, and Nangong Xianyue was about to open the car door and leave. What was going on?

"Nangong Xianyue, where are you going?" Qiao Yisha ran over, feeling a little uneasy and suddenly panicked.
