Miss Lucky Go! Episode 7 Recap
> Miss Lucky Go! Recap
Zhong Wei and Qi Chao met with a real estate agent to look for a storefront, but their budget was limited. The agent first showed them a rundown place, which was once a bustling CBD core area, but was now offered at a price suitable for their budget. However, Zhong Wei and Qi Chao were not satisfied.
The agent then presented a much better shop with good customer flow and ample natural light, and the perfect size, but its rent was too high for them. Finally, the agent found another location. Though this storefront had been vacant for a long time and looked shabby, Zhong Wei found its location quite good and the price reasonable. He decided to rent it.
With a tight budget, Zhong Wei had to find ways to save money, even finding the renovation team's quoted price too high. Qi Chao explained that no other team in the market would agree to work for the price they offered, and if Zhong Wei made them leave, they wouldn't find anyone else. Zhong Wei refused to increase their pay but offered to cover their lunch and dinner, promising four dishes and one bowl of soup for each meal.
The renovation team found this offer acceptable and agreed. Qi Chao questioned how they could afford these meals. Zhong Wei revealed he planned to use leftover business meals from Heng Chang, emphasizing it was a way to prevent food waste. Qi Chao, however, dryly suggested it was more about taking advantage of his father's company. Bao Jiaguo sent Xu Miaomiao information about the Winter Olympics Ambassador selection.
Xu Miaomiao was engrossed in a romance novel titled "A Caged Bird," praising the author's sincere and well-controlled emotional portrayal, yet she still suspected the author was a "scumbag with rich love experience." Bao Jiaguo, noticing her unusual behavior, asked if she was heartbroken. Xu Miaomiao vehemently denied it and warned him to keep quiet about her being disappointed in love, threatening him if he spoke a word.
Bao Jiaguo said he was only trying to compensate her because she had cried so sadly recently. Xu Miaomiao quickly retorted that her tears were not because of him. Bao Jiaguo, as the class monitor, claimed a duty to care for classmates' mental health and help those recovering from heartbreak, suggesting she apply for the ambassador program to find a new goal.
Xu Miaomiao called him an insensitive man who deserved to be single forever, to which Bao Jiaguo pointed out her own single status. Luo Si joined the sewing club and knitted a scarf for Fang Mao. She visited his classroom, asking a classmate about his whereabouts and introducing herself as his girlfriend. When the classmate expressed surprise, Luo Si explained that Fang Mao typically kept a low profile.
She later presented the scarf to Fang Mao in front of his friends, including Yao Weijing, proudly calling it her "trophy" from the sewing club and asking everyone if it suited him. Her classmates interpreted this as Luo Si openly asserting her claim over Fang Mao, which left Yao Weijing feeling very upset. The Hanhai University basketball team, including Zhong Wei and Zheng Ze, played against Hezheng University.
During a fierce game where Zhong Wei scored layups and three-pointers and was hailed as the MVP, Chen Miren was rushing to join the cheerleading squad but found her uniform zipper stuck. Zhong Wei helped her fix it in the hallway. Zhong Wei then approached Chen Miren and asked her to meet him in the little forest after the game, saying he had something important to tell her. Chen Miren agreed.
Later, Zheng Ze invited Xu Miaomiao to the celebratory dinner after the game, but she declined, saying she was tired. When Zheng Ze asked if there was a misunderstanding between them, Xu Miaomiao told him not to take himself too seriously. Bao Jiaguo tried to get Xu Miaomiao to visit the Teaching Affairs Office to finalize her Winter Olympics Ambassador application, but she was still unwilling.
Bao Jiaguo realized that Zheng Ze was the one who had broken Xu Miaomiao's heart and suspected she joined the cheerleading team for him. Xu Miaomiao started crying, reflecting on why she had liked Zheng Ze in the first place, then quipped that at least he wasn't as talkative as Bao Jiaguo. Bao Jiaguo then reminded her not to be late for the advanced math attendance check the next morning.
Meanwhile, Chen Miren saw Zhong Wei getting into a car with an attractive older woman, and their intimate gestures left her upset. She concluded that Zhong Wei was not the person she thought he was and walked away, choosing not to go to the little forest. Zhong Wei, waiting in the little forest, texted Chen Miren asking where she was. Chen Miren replied that she couldn't make it because she had something else to do. Disappointed, Zhong Wei returned.
Later, Chen Miren's roommates discussed the gossip about Zhong Wei and the "older girl" driving a sports car, noting her elegant demeanor and speculating that Zhong Wei might prefer older women. Shi Hou told Zhao Gu that the cost of living in a big city was too high, citing rent, utility bills, transportation, food, and social expenses, amounting to at least four thousand yuan a month—the average salary for fresh graduates.
He lamented that domestic graduates couldn't compete with those who had studied abroad. He then revealed that his mother had found him a job in their hometown and asked Zhao Gu to return with him after graduation. Zhao Gu refused, stating she would never go back to their hometown. Shi Hou then clarified that his intention in their relationship was marriage, and if she wouldn't move back with him, they would have to break up.
Zhao Gu immediately agreed to the breakup. Shi Hou, upset, accused her of using him as a "stepping stone" for her postgraduate studies, noting that she constantly brought up exam details during their dates. Zhao Gu dismissed his words, stating that it no longer mattered since they had already broken up.
Later, Zhao Gu's roommates discussed the breakup, mentioning that Shi Hou had been shouting "I won't break up with you" downstairs and was eventually chased away by the dorm keeper. Zhao Gu explained that she broke up with Shi Hou because he wanted to return home while she planned to go abroad, as she believed that postgraduate studies no longer offered a significant advantage, and those who had studied abroad were more competitive.
Chen Miren's action figures arrived, and Zhong Wei happened to see them. He playfully asked for one as a souvenir, given his involvement, but Chen Miren refused. She then expressed her joy at completing her first work with Zhong Wei, hoping they could collaborate on more projects in the future, valuing the "sense of ceremony." Zhong Wei agreed about the importance of ceremony.
Later, Chen Miren received a stern lecture from a teacher about her poor academic performance, particularly in advanced math, warning her that she might fail due to her lack of basic knowledge. Zhong Wei offered his class notes, highlighting key concepts and formulas for success. However, Chen Miren, asserting her independence, declined, stating she had her own study methods and that his good grades didn't make his methods superior.
Her roommates later remarked on Chen Miren's unusual behavior, like avoiding snacks, and speculated she might be avoiding someone. Xu Miaomiao read a scene from "A Caged Bird" where the male lead secretly helps the female lead with notes, asking Chen Miren if she found it sweet. Chen Miren responded that it was "a little salty" and asked a friend to return Zhong Wei's notes, implying that taking them felt like cheating.
