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

Joysa was already short of breath, and she fainted almost instantly after falling into the water.

Nangong Xianyue held her with one hand and paddled with the other, swimming forward tirelessly.

Perhaps because the bombs were used up or because the plane believed the two men were doomed to die, it actually spun around and flew away.

As it was getting dark, Nangong Xianyue found a piece of driftwood on the sea. It was a dismantled heavy wooden door.

He lifted Joysa up and let her lie flat, then he easily climbed onto the driftwood with his legs and sat next to Joysa.

His shoes and socks had disappeared while he was swimming. He took off the shirt that was stuck to his body and put it aside, revealing his lean figure, broad shoulders and narrow waist, and clear and smooth lines of abdominal and chest muscles.

He picked up Joysha's upper body and leaned over to give her air. Fortunately, Joysha's condition was not serious and she had been exercising frequently recently, so she soon woke up with her eyelashes fluttering.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I met a pair of narrow and charming light gray eyes. His black hair was still dripping with water. His upper body was naked, and I was lying in his arms, swaying, as if floating somewhere.

She raised her arms and hugged Nangong Xianyue's neck, "We are still alive, Nangong Xianyue, you saved me again."

Nangong Xianyue curled his lips and hugged her, "It's safe for now."

Joysa looked at the endless sea around her. The sky was getting dark, and they were floating slowly on the sea.

“Where will we go?”

"I don't know. Are you scared?"

Nangong Xianyue still remembers that she used to feel seasick.

Qiao Yisha shook her head. "Ever since what happened in Hell City, I don't seem to be afraid of the dark or seasick anymore."

She noticed a hint of fatigue between Nangong Xianyue's eyebrows and touched his face with heartache, "Do you want to rest for a while? I'll watch you. If anything happens, I'll wake you up."

Nangong Xianyue shook his head, grabbed her hand and held it in his, "I'm not tired, you continue to rest."

"Nangong Xianyue, can you take a rest?"

"You'd be scared awake alone."

"No, I've been holding your hand the whole time. If you don't get some sleep, I'll really get worried."

As she spoke, her eyes became red.

"Okay, okay, I'll take a nap. Be good and don't cry." Nangong Xianyue immediately coaxed her.

Qiao Yisha carefully adjusted her sitting position and let him lean on her arms. "Close your eyes."

Nangong Xianyue chuckled, hugged her waist and closed his eyes.

Today, Nangong Xianyue not only kept running, but also held her hand the whole time and swam with her for such a long time. He expended several times more energy than her. Even though he had better physical strength than her, he was still a little tired.

Leaning in her arms, his breathing soon became steady and he fell asleep, but his arms were still tightly around her.

When closed, Nangong Xianyue's eyes appeared even narrower and longer, with the corners of her eyes slightly raised, making her look evil and seductive. Her thin lips were slightly pursed, and the tip of her tall nose pressed against the fabric of Qiao Yisha's clothes.

Qiao Yisha couldn't help but sigh that this man's face was so much like a work of art.

A man and a woman were sitting on a piece of driftwood on the sea, hugging each other. As they drifted on the sea, they looked like exquisite sea sculptures from a distance.

Soon after, it suddenly started to drizzle, and small circles appeared on the sea surface. Joysa prayed that it would not rain heavily and would stop soon.

She raised her arm and placed it across Nangong Xianyue, wanting him to sleep a little longer and not be woken by the raindrops.

The cold raindrops fell on my skin, making my already cold clothes even colder.

Qiao Yisha couldn't help but hug Nangong Xianyue tighter.

The rain gradually got heavier, pouring directly on my body. The sea seemed to be rising tide, and the driftwood was swaying a little.

Nangong Xian felt the raindrops on his naked upper body, opened his eyes, and saw Qiao Yisha raising her hand to shield him from the rain, so he immediately sat up.

"You woke up so soon. It's all because of the rain. It came so quickly."

"Why didn't you wake me up when it rained?"

Nangong Xianyue took the shirt that had been placed aside, wrung out the water, and shook it open to cover Qiaoisha's head.

"Then what are you going to do?" Qiaosha looked up at him. His whole body was in the rain, but she at least covered his head.

"I'm fine. Are you cold? Hold me tight."

Qiao Yisha hugged him sideways, and the warmth from Nangong Xianyue's body could be felt through his wet clothes.

There was no sign of the rain stopping. Qiao Yisha buried herself in Nangong Xianyue's arms, her head covered by her clothes, and her body trembling in the rain.

Nangong Xianyue felt it, cursed inwardly, took off the clothes again, wrung out the water, and covered Qiaoisha's head with them, while hugging her tightly.

The sound of heavy rain hitting the sea filled their eardrums.

"Isa, how are you?" Nangong Xianyue shouted.

"It's cold... so cold... Nangong Xianyue..." Her hands around Nangong Xianyue couldn't stop shaking.

He couldn't untwist his clothes as fast as the rain, so he simply threw the shirt aside and hugged Joysa tightly.

The two men's bodies had been chilled by the cold rain. If this continued, even if they didn't freeze to death, with the tide rising, a larger wave would sweep them into the sea.

Nangong Xianyue couldn't open her eyes because of the rain. She used her fingers to smooth her drooping hair back and looked around with squinted eyes.

In the rain and fog, a black triangle stood in the distance. It was not very clear in the dark night. Nangong Xianyue identified it carefully and confirmed that it was a small island.

He called out to Joysa: "Hold on, there is a small island in the distance, we will be able to get there soon."

Joysa's teeth were chattering from the cold. She looked up and saw a small island. She forced a smile.

"The rain water is dirty. Close your eyes and I'll take you there."

Nangong Xianyue put her on the driftwood, let her lie on her side, found a dirty wooden stick from the sea, and paddled hard towards the island.

Joysa opened her eyes and saw the man kneeling beside her, using all his strength, his muscles tensed, as he stroked the wooden stick again and again.

She struggled to sit up, took off the only remaining shoe on her foot, knelt on the other side, and used the shoe as a paddle, paddling in the water.

Nangong Xianyue noticed it and turned to look at her. Qiaoisha just smiled, her lips were pale, but her eyes were firm.

She is always like this, never admitting defeat, never saying discouraging words, stubborn and aloof.

It rained all night, and they rowed all night. The waves knocked them down several times, but they held on to the driftwood tightly, steadying themselves and moving towards their goal.

Finally, when the first light of dawn appeared in the sky, they arrived at the island.

The two men stepped onto the muddy ground from the driftwood and lay down on the ground at the same time, facing the sky and breathing heavily.

Nangong Xianyue held the hand of the person next to her, panting and laughing: "Yisha, we have survived another disaster together."

Qiao Yisha smiled with her lips pulled back: "It's really hard. I want to sleep. I'm so tired."

Nangong Xianyue stood up, leaned over and picked up Qiao Yisha, "Find a secluded place first and take off your wet clothes before going to bed, otherwise you will get sick."
