Mino looked at Lalisa and said, “If you didn’t perform well, would I invite you to cooperate with me? Now it seems that Kwon Lalisa was right. You are more suitable for this role than her indeed. And I think you’re more talented in acting than her.”

Lalisa, “….Well, thank you, Director Ning.”

Mino turned up the corner of his mouth, walked up to Lalisa and crossed his arms over his chest. He looked at her up and down, asking, “Well, are you interested in joining my team? If you agree, I’ll sign a script that I was interested in when I go back to China. That script happens to have two female leads. You and Jennie will star it. What do you think of it?”

Lalisa smiled and began to ponder whether she should accept the offer. Not revealing her thoughts, she merely said with a smile, “It seems that you already had a plan, Director Ning. ”

“To tell you the truth, I have chosen Jennie as one of the female leads long ago, but I’ve been looking for the other one. Now I think I’ve found the right one. As long as you agree, I’ll immediately sign that script. What do you say?” Mino rested his chin on his hand and looked at Lalisa. He was sure Lalisa would agree.

Lalisa took a deep breath and said, “Isn’t it better for me to endorse my own brand if I’m more famous?”

“Sure. Our movie will be played all over the world, and at that time, your fans will be all over the world. Then what do you think your fans will do when they see your TV commercial?” Mino said seriously.

Laliss pretended to be persuaded by his words.

Mino looked at Lalisa’s look, narrowed his eyes and continued, “Think about it. If, I mean if, you tell the public that The Queen is your company, then you’ll be the goddess of the entertainment circle, the business circle and campus at the same time. You will become the goddess of the whole country! The most successful goddess!”

“The goddess of the whole nation?” Lalisa felt her heart was beating faster.

Mino looked into her eyes and nodded seriously. “Yes, the goddess of the whole nation! You grew up in a village because you were purposely swapped with another girl when you were born. Your story will strike a chord with many common girls. However, instead of being devoured by the unfair fate, you exposed what the bad guys did to you, came back to your parents and took care of your mother despite the fact that she had abandoned you. And you also try your best to pay back to your uncle and his family who had helped you. These behaviors would win over many parents, kind-hearted people or the people with the similar experiences with you. Besides, your successes in business will also attract the attention of many business people. So you will surely become a goddess of the nation!”

“You’ll become not only a goddess of the nation, but also of the whole world!” Mino looked at Lalisa with sparkling eyes and said in an exaggerated tone.

Lalisa pursed her lips and pondered. It had been quite a while before she nodded. “Okay, if it can be helpful to The Queen, I can join your team.”

Jennie raised her eyebrows. It was the first time that she had seen Mino try so hard to persuade someone to join his team!

But Lalisa was very glad to hear Mino’s words. She had been reluctant to enter the entertainment industry, but now after hearing Mino’s words, she thought perhaps it was not a bad idea to become an actress. She didn’t like the entertainment circle because of Xu Eunha, but there was also someone like He Jennie in this circle. She didn’t have to reject this circle just because of Eunha. She could accept 008’s challenge!

Yes, she took the task 008 gave her as 008’s challenge to her. If she could become a goddess of the nation in the end, she was the winner!

Lose? No! There wasn’t such a word in her dictionary. She must win.
