Miss Lucky Go! Episode 13 Recap
> Miss Lucky Go! Recaps
Following Xu Miaomiao's advice to be more distant in her relationship, Chen Miren adopted a cold demeanor towards Zhong Wei, often responding with a simple "Oh" whenever he spoke. Zhong Wei found her behavior perplexing and couldn't understand what was wrong. Meanwhile, Zhong Wei sought his father's investment to expand the OHH Performance Stores.
He proposed replicating the stores nationwide and reallocating staff to the Companion Cat Project Team, anticipating a 40% increase in sales by the end of the third quarter. However, Zhong Wei's father questioned the existing store's revenue, the initial capital outlay, and the projected return on investment, emphasizing his responsibility as the owner of Heng Chang and to its shareholders. Zhong Wei admitted he had not calculated these figures in detail.
After the meeting, Zhong Wei told Qi Chao that his father had not agreed to the expansion. He declared that they must now prioritize quality and win against Yu Dawei in the third quarter to secure the investment. Zhong Wei reviewed the current design submissions for the Companion Cat product line and rejected all of them, insisting that every item for the third quarter must be exquisite. This led Qi Chao to inform the team about mandatory overtime.
Despite some complaints, Qi Chao encouraged everyone, stating it was an opportunity to prove themselves and that he would also work extra hours, even jokingly offering anti-hair loss shampoo. In their dorm, Luo Si shared that she and Fang Mao had reconciled after she initiated contact, stressing that "cold wars" only harm relationships and that mutual effort is essential. Chen Miren, reflecting on this, wondered if she should adjust her approach with Zhong Wei.
She also received discouraging news: her latest design still had numerous issues and required further revisions, making her quite upset. Separately, the campus beauty of Hezheng University, Guo Xiaoya, gained significant popularity in the Winter Olympics Ambassador selection with her Korean dance, surpassing Xu Miaomiao. Online, author Bao Jiaguo posted a message to his readers, stating that he would not update his novel unless they voted for Xu Miaomiao in the Winter Olympics Ambassador competition.
Determined to win, Xu Miaomiao planned a special live stream featuring her ability to hold her breath underwater for three-and-a-half minutes. During the live stream, Bao Jiaguo, mistaking her prolonged underwater stunt for an emergency, jumped into the pool to "rescue" her. Xu Miaomiao was annoyed, explaining she was merely performing her act. Bao Jiaguo informed her that the platform's rules strictly prohibit content that endangers one's safety, and her live stream account was likely blocked.
Xu Miaomiao checked her phone and found he was correct. She questioned how he knew the live stream regulations so well, and he hesitantly admitted he had researched them because he also wanted to try live streaming. Xu Miaomiao offered to teach him. After Bao Jiaguo sneezed, she handed him her towel and urged him to return to his dorm to change before catching a cold. Bao Jiaguo, visibly pleased, returned to his room.
Later, the results of the Winter Olympics Ambassador election were announced, showing Xu Miaomiao in first place and Guo Xiaoya in second. Xu Miaomiao credited Bao Jiaguo's timely "rescue" for preventing her account from being banned, which would have cost her the title. She decided to treat him to dinner. At dinner, Xu Miaomiao thanked Bao Jiaguo for his help, including buying ingredients for a previous live stream.
She also brought up Bao Jiaguo's campaigning for her and noted a new mysterious character, Bao Zhendong, in his novel who seemed poised to replace the male lead. She found the romantic development intriguing. During their meal, Xu Miaomiao and Bao Jiaguo noticed Zhao Gu on a date with a foreign man. A waitress at the café approached Zhao Gu, mistakenly returning an earring she believed Zhao Gu had left behind during a previous visit with a "Mr. Dylan."
Zhao Gu denied it, claiming she had never been there and swiftly left. Chen Miren's sales results for her figurine design came in, showing it as the worst-performing product in the company. Yu Dawei summoned her, dismissing her explanations about the "heartwarming stories" behind her characters. He emphasized that their target audience, young people, prioritize immediate visual impact and purchase desire, not intricate narratives.
He reminded her of the fierce competition for designer positions in their "gold medal project team" and urged her to cherish her opportunity. Feeling deflated, Chen Miren agreed to make the required changes. Zhong Wei arrived to pick up Chen Miren.
He suggested dinner at a favorite restaurant and a horror movie, but Chen Miren, still reeling from her work setbacks and adhering to her new "aloof" strategy, responded vaguely with "Anything is fine, you decide" and then asked to be left alone. Zhong Wei confronted her about her "silent treatment." Chen Miren tearfully explained that her design had been rejected after days of tireless work and that friends had advised her against being too proactive in a relationship.
Zhong Wei apologized for not understanding her struggles. His car then suffered a minor scratch, but he casually dismissed it, stating it was his father's car, subtly reinforcing his wealth. Later, Bai Ran brought dinner for Zhong Wei's father but found he wasn't in the office. She called Zhong Wei to offer him the meal. Zhong Wei invited Chen Miren to join him. While they were eating in his father's office, Yu Dawei walked in, looking for Zhong Wei's father.
Upon seeing Chen Miren with Zhong Wei, Chen Miren admitted that Zhong Wei was her boyfriend but assured Yu Dawei that she would keep her personal and professional lives separate and would not disclose any company secrets. Yu Dawei acknowledged her statement, adding that he would also maintain professional boundaries. Back in the dorm, Xu Miaomiao celebrated her Winter Olympics Ambassador win with her dorm mates, who also teased Zhao Gu about her rapid new relationship.
Meanwhile, Chen Miren received more discouraging news: a message informed her that her latest revised design still had numerous issues, leading her dorm mates to humorously toast to her "rejected draft." Determined, Chen Miren worked tirelessly through the night on further revisions, finally completing them just before dawn, only to realize the canteen was closed. The next morning, Luo Si, meticulously made up, prepared to celebrate her 500-day anniversary with Fang Mao.
Zhao Gu also left, claiming she was going for "study and communication" with a foreign friend, but was heard referring to him as "Honey." Left alone, Xu Miaomiao lamented that she was the only one in the dormitory who had yet to find a partner.
