“President Wang, I’m not here to preside over the work today. I’m here to shoot the cover of Jiayi Magazine.” Mo Rao smiled. “If you have such an attitude when you see guests coming to the company, I have to wonder if you know how to behave.”

Wang Xiao was stunned and his expression was a little ugly. “Tsk, it’s just a cover shoot. Do you really think you’re a VIP or something?”

“President Wang, you’ve been in Jiayi Corporation for so many years. Don’t you know the importance of the cover of a magazine? Many fans buy magazines for the cover. Besides, I didn’t decide the cover of the next issue. It was decided by the company’s executives.” Mo Rao frowned and said coldly, “President Wang, isn’t it too immature to involve personal grudges in official matters?”

Wang Xiao had never expected Mo Rao to be so eloquent. Wang Xiao, who had provoked her first, immediately fell at a disadvantage.

As the company employees beside Wang Xiao watched, they couldn’t help but snicker.

Wang Xiao had worked in the company for many years. In terms of age, he could be Mo Rao’s elder, but Mo Rao said that he was “immature”.

Wang Xiao immediately felt embarrassed. He sneered and said, “You’re quite arrogant at such a young age. Mo Rao, I’ll wait for your results in three months. If you don’t fulfill your promise, don’t leave in tears.”

“Since I’ve made a promise, are you willing to bet with me?” Mo Rao smiled.

Wang Xiao raised his eyebrows. “Bet on what?”

“If I raise Jiayi’s performance by five times in half a year, can you give up your shares and leave Jiayi?” Mo Rao said bluntly.

Hearing this, everyone present was stunned.

Get Wang Xiao to scram from Jiayi?

Wasn’t Mo Rao’s bet too risky?!

But soon, Wang Xiao smiled.

In his opinion, Mo Rao was just dreaming.

“Mo Rao, you’re really arrogant. How dare you say such things?” In Wang Xiao’s opinion, this was an impossible task. “Forget half a year, you should think about how to double Jiayi’s performance in three months.”

“Alright, let’s wait and see.”

With that, Mo Rao stopped talking to Wang Xiao and left.

Li Li, who had come with Mo Rao, didn’t expect Mo Rao to make a bet with Wang Xiao and even raise the stakes so high. She quickly asked, “Rao Rao, isn’t this bet too risky?”

Mo Rao only chuckled and said, “Li Li, don’t you believe me?”

Li Li shook her head. “I—of course I believe you.”

“When I took over these companies, the news appeared on the trending searches, and it improved the company’s performance by a lot. I can definitely double the revenue in three months. As for increasing it by five times, it’s not too difficult,” Mo Rao said. “Wang Xiao doesn’t know how to manage a fashion company at all. According to my understanding, Wang Xiao has never thought of increasing his performance all these years and is unwilling to leave his comfort zone.”

“But I’m quite worried that he will play dirty tricks. If he realizes that you can do it, he will definitely think of a way to prevent you from completing your goal.” Li Li was still a little worried.

Mo Rao wasn’t worried about this. She comforted her, “Li Li, don’t worry. I’ve already expected this, so I’m not afraid.”

Seeing that Mo Rao was confident, Li Li was relieved. “That’s good.”

When they arrived at the dressing room, the employees who were still chatting immediately shut up when they saw Mo Rao.

Seeing this, Mo Rao quickly smiled and said, “Are you guys that afraid of me? Don’t treat me as your boss. Just treat me as an artiste who’s here for a photoshoot.”

Upon hearing Mo Rao say this, the makeup artist, Qing Qing, mustered her courage and said, “President Mo, I really liked your previous variety show. It’s, it’s that outdoor variety show…”

“Thank you for your support. You don’t have to call me President Mo. Just call me Mo Rao.” Mo Rao tried her best to be more down-to-earth.

Qing Qing relaxed and said, “Then… Mo Rao, come and sit here. I’ll help you put on makeup today.”
