Miss Lucky Go! Episode 1 Recap
> Miss Lucky Go! Recaps
Chen Miren awakens in her Further Mathematics class from a vivid dream of becoming a celebrated chief designer of action figures for Heng Siyuan, having won the Asia Product Design Gold Award. To her dismay, the teacher immediately calls on her to define Further Mathematics. Still disoriented, Chen Miren stammers that it's a difficult and incomprehensible subject, drawing laughter from her classmates. Moments later, Zhong Wei, whose image had inexplicably appeared in her dream, walks in late.
Though the teacher accepts his apology, he issues a stern warning about attendance and passing grades for his challenging course. Startled by Zhong Wei's presence, Chen Miren quickly tries to escape after class, but he catches up to her, demanding to know why she disappeared without a word two and a half years ago, accusing her of lying. Chen Miren tries to deflect, even feigning a contagious flu, and then attempts to use a diversion, pointing behind him.
Before Zhong Wei can react, her dorm mate Luo Si arrives, wondering why Chen Miren ran. Chen Miren invents an excuse about needing the restroom, and when Luo Si jokingly suggests she was meeting a boyfriend, Chen Miren quickly states she is single. Observing this, Huang Xiaoyue asks Zhong Wei if he knows Chen Miren, which Zhong Wei denies. Luo Si interjects, explaining her long history with Chen Miren, even from high school.
Huang Xiaoyue then asserts that Chen Miren has "never been in a relationship," a fact she admitted during a game of Truth or Dare, implying it must be true. Back in her dormitory, Chen Miren's roommates, Luo Si and Zhao Gu, are excitedly discussing Xu Miaomiao, the esteemed "campus belle" of Hanhai University.
Xu Miaomiao soon arrives, revealing that she is their new roommate, much to Chen Miren's annoyance as she finds the exaggerated tales of Xu Miaomiao’s beauty hard to believe. Luo Si then leaves for a date. The constant close encounters with Zhong Wei at school lead Chen Miren to dread every class.
In the next Further Mathematics session, Chen Miren attempts to hide behind another student, but Zhong Wei once again corners her, questioning her claim of being "never been in a relationship." Chen Miren tries to discredit Huang Xiaoyue as an unreliable source but is still unable to provide a satisfactory answer to Zhong Wei, quickly fleeing to her dorm.
Her roommates, sensing her distress, inquire if she has offended Zhong Wei, to which Chen Miren makes up an excuse about a past dispute over the last portion of spicy diced chicken in the canteen. Later, Chen Miren receives a fake invitation to a private Heng Siyuan event. Despite her roommate’s concerns about an obvious English misspelling on the invitation, Chen Miren hopes the security guards will be "near-sighted." To her great relief, the guard lets her through.
Inside the event, Zhong Wei arrives with his father, Mr. Zhong. His father tries to convince Zhong Wei to offer his expert opinions on new action figures, citing his past successful recommendations. Zhong Wei, however, demands payment for his time, successfully negotiating a monthly allowance. As Mr. Zhong wonders about his son's focus on money, Zhong Wei spots Chen Miren admiring the action figures.
He secretly takes photos of her, thinking to himself, "Let's see what you can do this time, Chen Miren." Meanwhile, Chen Miren enthusiastically discusses an action figure called "Eye in Backlight," showcasing her deep knowledge and reiterating her ambition to join Heng Siyuan as a chief designer. During a dinner with her roommates, they discuss their dreams.
Luo Si expresses her desire to become a powerful housewife like her mother, while Xu Miaomiao aspires to always be the center of attention. Chen Miren then shares her own story: her initial dream was to become a chief action figure designer, for which she planned to study Animation Design. However, the program was unpopular and only admitted one student that year before being cancelled.
Consequently, she was forcibly transferred to Business Administration, a major her mother approved of, despite Chen Miren's poor math skills. Undeterred, Chen Miren asserts her unwavering dream to join Heng Siyuan, believing it to be the leading action figure company in the Asia-Pacific region and her ideal starting point. Zhao Gu simply states her dream is to pass her postgraduate entrance exams.
Simultaneously, class monitor Bao Jiaguo approaches Xu Miaomiao on the basketball court, trying to persuade her to run for campus ambassador. Xu Miaomiao initially agrees, but when Bao Jiaguo attributes her inevitable success solely to her "pretty face," she becomes indignant and definitively refuses to participate. Frustrated by Xu Miaomiao and Zhong Wei's similar refusals, Bao Jiaguo discusses the matter with Huang Xiaoyue.
Huang Xiaoyue, eager to represent their class, volunteers himself, even suggesting various costume ideas, including a "sexy" look. Bao Jiaguo dismisses his offer and makes one last appeal to Zhong Wei, who reiterates his lack of interest. In the next Further Mathematics class, Zhong Wei directly demands Chen Miren get him water. Her attempt to escape to the restroom is met with a reprimand from the teacher, who praises Zhong Wei's focus.
Later, Zhong Wei has Chen Miren fix his bicycle, lamenting the twenty-yuan repair cost outside school. Chen Miren, annoyed by his stinginess, mutters about how "lucky" she was to have left him, but quickly retracts her words when Zhong Wei presses her for an explanation. She still claims not to remember the real reason for her departure.
Zhong Wei, feigning patience, then orders her to buy him specific buns from the east gate and matcha bubble tea from the west gate, demanding delivery to his dorm in ten minutes, despite the impractical distance. Later, Bao Jiaguo successfully convinces Zhong Wei to run for campus ambassador, replacing Huang Xiaoyue's ambition. Zhong Wei then corners Chen Miren, asking for her help to draw a campaign poster for him.
Chen Miren suggests simply printing a photo, but Zhong Wei, citing frugality, insists on a drawing because printing is "a waste of money." He then demands another iced matcha bubble tea from her for the next day. Meanwhile, Huang Xiaoyue passes Zhong Wei's basketball game schedule to Chen Miren, who has been inquiring about Zhong Wei's activities.
Chen Miren, however, reveals she is secretly selling Zhong Wei's schedule to Zhen Chunhua, a student from the Department of Chinese Literature, who pays her with a month's worth of snacks for the information.
