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

Luo Xin suddenly bumped into the hard chest and smelled the familiar scent of sweet pine.

Unable to calm down, he raised his hand and pushed Ivan away.

"Are you human?" There was still fear in Luo Xin's eyes.

"Yes." Ivan held her hand and forced a weak smile, "Of course I am."

"Then why did you turn into such a big tiger? You almost killed me." When Luo Xin thought of this, she felt aggrieved and shook off Ivan's hand.

Ai Fan frowned distressedly: "I have always been worried about hurting you, so I wanted to hide it from you and not drag you into it."

There is no need to think too much. Without Patrick's order, Rosen would not be able to come in, let alone get close to the palace.

"So...why on earth did you behave like that?"

Ivan's eyes darkened. "This is a secret of our Central Plains royal family. Only a very few people we trust know it. But now, in order to make you no longer afraid of me, I must tell you."

Luo Xin looked at him nervously, waiting for his answer.

"When I was a child, my father learned about a potion that could not only extend a person's lifespan, dramatically increase their energy and physical strength, but also allow them to heal themselves."

"This is a huge temptation for him. He wants us and the soldiers of Zhongzhou to have this ability so as to strengthen Zhongzhou."

"He was worried that another country might get there first, so as soon as he found out, he immediately sent people to look for them."

"Finally, I found it in Hell City and secretly purchased the potion, which was so rare that there were only four of them."

"I didn't expect that scientist to be a pervert. This isn't a potion that makes people stronger at all."

"The drugs he developed can only turn people into half-human, half-beasts, and they are semi-finished products. For the huge reward from my father, he injected us without hesitation, and we all became his first batch of test subjects."

"After that, the four of us either turned into wild beasts occasionally or endured extreme pain. It felt like the bones and organs in our bodies were being crushed. When the attacks occurred, we wanted to break our necks."

As Ivan spoke, his eyes showed great pain. Which normal person could endure turning into a beast? Not to mention a proud and noble prince like him.

Luo Xin's eyes widened in disbelief, and her lips trembled slightly, "Then... His Highness Bo Luoxun..."

Ivan nodded. "So is he. However, he is the luckiest among all of us. He survived the most painful period. Now he not only has those abilities, but he can also fully control his own form. Even if he becomes an animal, he still has thoughts."

And not only does he not have those abilities, he also has to endure the pain and humiliation brought by the potion.

"Oh my god..." Luo Xin covered her lips. How could there be such a ridiculous thing in the world, half human, half beast, how painful it would be, "So you, you completely forgot that you were Evan before?"

Ivan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "My mind has completely turned into that of a wild animal. I don't remember anything and I don't recognize anyone. So, when it comes to this, my father will lock me up, but when I wake up, I will remember my memories as a tiger."

"I didn't expect that he would send you here this time. Thank God, nothing happened to you."

"Who said I wasn't in trouble? I was so scared that you almost broke all my bones."

Ivan immediately supported her shoulders and looked at her body, "Where? Where are you injured? I'll call a doctor now."

Luo Xin was unhappy: "Why are you calling? There's not even a phone here. You forced me to knock on the door for so long but no one came."

Ivan raised his hand and pointed at the painting on the opposite wall. "Rosin, move it. There is a button on the back. Press it."

Luo Xin ran over and reached behind the painting. Sure enough, there was a round hard object. She pressed it with her finger.

"This is a mechanism specially designed to prevent situations like this. As long as I don't press it, no one will come in even if I die inside. That's why no one came to open the door when you called for help just now."

"What if you really die in there?"

"Thanks to this potion, although I didn't gain those abilities, my vitality has become much stronger and I don't die so easily."

Sure enough, after pressing the button, within a minute, the door was pushed open from the outside and a series of noisy footsteps were heard, led by Ivan's two personal attendants and the medical team.

"Your Highness," the attendant said with his eyes red with excitement, "Great, you finally made it."

"Your Highness, please lie down quickly, doctor, take a look at your body." another attendant shouted.

Ivan didn't move, "Luoxin, come here and lie down for the doctor to check. Everyone else, get out."

A week later, Shen Si called Qiao Yisha.

She thought it was Zhu Qingsi who was called, so she took the phone from the bodyguard and answered it.

But Shen Si's tone didn't sound like he had good news to tell her, "Qiao Yisha..."

When Qiao Yisha heard the tone, she understood something, "What's wrong? Is things not going well?"

"Yes, the Hill family refused to let me go this time. Even if I used my identity, they still refused to compromise. They are completely different from last time."

The last time Zhu Qingsi escaped to Hell City, Shen Si didn't need to show up in person. He just sent someone to negotiate some conditions with the Hill family, and the other party agreed not to capture Zhu Qingsi.

This time the Hill family gave no face at all.

Shen Si continued, "I will continue to think of ways. Can you release Shen Qing first?"

"Impossible. If you let her go, will you still care about Zhu Qingsi's life or death?"

"I promise you that I will continue to find ways to save Zhu Qingsi. I can swear on my life."

"If you don't believe me, let me ask you, do you know why the other party won't let me go?"

Qiao Yisha only knew that the Hill family had always wanted to capture Zhu Qingsi, but she had never asked Zhu Qingsi why.

"The Hill family has been holding him hostage because they want him to marry the Princess of Nanzhou."

"marry?"

"That's right. If Zhu Qingsi marries the Princess of Nanzhou, the Hill family's status will almost be above everyone else. This is too tempting for them. No matter how much I offer them, they won't let him go."

Qiao Yisha hesitated, "Zhu Qingsi is unwilling? She is a princess."

If Zhu Qingsi was willing, she would not make things worse by saving him.

"He doesn't want to," Shen Si said without hesitation, "Although the Princess of Nanzhou is young, beautiful, and powerful, she is also extremely cruel and has a bad reputation."

"Of course, the most important thing is that Zhu Qingsi has no interest in her. I don't know why she is so devoted to him."

"I understand."

"Can I have a word with Shen Qing?" Shen Si asked.

"No, she only has one breath left and no strength to speak."

After saying this, Qiao Yisha hung up the phone and returned it to the bodyguard.

Nangong Xianyue beside her had a nonchalant smile on his thin lips, his arms resting on the back of the chair behind her, holding her in his arms.

"You are so bad, sister." Shen Qing, who was sitting opposite in a white dress, had a ruddy complexion and her wounds had mostly healed. It was completely different from what Qiao Yisha said. She was only breathing her last.
