Daily synopsis: My superpowers are updated every season.

Chapter 1302 Mi Lai, who dreams of being a modern-day love expert, Silver Moon!
"Uncle Qiao, I'm heading back now. Don't drive after drinking!"

He Chen's phone rang. He picked it up, glanced at it, and smiled as he said goodbye to Qiao Weidong.

"..." Qiao Weidong was wondering if Wu Wei was really as He Chen described, and whether these numerous individual cases of messy affairs had affected He Chen's views on marriage and family, when he saw He Chen like this, his eyes were unusually gleeful.

Ok!

You told me not to drink and drive, but so you don't drink just so you can drive anytime, right?
As a prospective father-in-law, my feelings are incredibly complicated!

But all they could do was watch helplessly as their prospective son-in-law was once again called away by some slutty, shameless woman to do something else.

He felt indignant for his beloved daughter, Yingzi!
孽 孽!
If it weren't for the discord between him and Song Qian, which caused so much trouble, their precious daughter wouldn't have ended up like this.

Perhaps He Chen wouldn't need to help his daughter get out of this mess, as she would gradually stray from the norm amidst this entanglement.

Ugh!
He Chen didn't have many feelings. He treated Qiao Weidong as an older brother, and Qiao Weidong treated him as a prospective son-in-law. He and Qiao Weidong each had their own opinions.

He might not directly say who invited him, but he doesn't hide the fact that he was invited.

This time, it was Milai who invited him.

When He Chen arrived at the destination and met Mi Lai, he couldn't help but smile at her.

"why are you laughing!"

Mi Lai blushed.

Fortunately, her face isn't pale, so it's not very noticeable.

Actually, she knew what He Chen was laughing about.

Ever since that time they looked through the telescope together, she has been too ashamed to see him and has never contacted him again.

It's no wonder He Chen smiled like that when they suddenly reconnected.

"Don't overthink it. I heard you were blocked by your friends on WeChat Moments, and I felt sorry for you, so I asked you to come out with me. It's not only to let you feel the warmth of friendship, but also because we're in the same boat."

As Mi Lai finished speaking, her shyness faded, and she looked melancholy and sighed.

Only after seeing what her current social circle looks like did she realize what it feels like to be abandoned by it.

Although she and He Chen left voluntarily and were passively blocked from each other's WeChat Moments, they were truly in the same boat.

One major reason she suppressed her shame and took the initiative to ask He Chen out was this empathy.

More importantly, she felt that after He Chen was blocked by Lu Tao and his friends' circle of friends, she didn't try to force herself to fit in and make Lu Tao uncomfortable. Instead, she acquiesced to the situation, which might be because of her.

Because she had taken the initiative to call him over last time and done something to offend Lu Tao, He Chen changed her previous temper and stopped causing trouble for Lu Tao.

Although she was angry and heartbroken at the time and made a mistake, she did not intend to use it to plead for Lu Tao, reduce He Chen's criticism of Lu Tao, or make He Chen transfer all his criticism of Lu Tao onto her.

But that time, the result was quite different.

He Chen was genuinely touched.

Therefore, worried that He Chen might harbor some resentment, he actively suppressed his shame and invited He Chen out for a get-together again, his feelings were extremely complicated.

"Are you sure you want to make me feel the warmth of friendship again?" He Chen's words shattered the feeling of being moved that Mi Lai had been conjuring up in her mind.

"He Chen!!!" Mi Lai was furious, especially after hearing He Chen's words; the more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

It's not just on the face.

And on the body.

The word "again" instantly transported Milella back to that night of open and honest conversation, where they knew each other inside and out.

She gave all the warmth that friends could offer.

She gave the warmth that friends couldn't provide.

damn it!
How could she say something like that, giving He Chen a chance to tease her?

No! If this continues, he'll really misunderstand that she asked him out tonight not just to be friends, but to see them as two people in the same boat who've both been excluded from their social circles.

She just needed companionship, not the warmth of a friend that goes beyond friendship...

Thinking about this, she realized that she couldn't help but let her thoughts wander in that direction.

Because it seems that, although this warmth between friends that goes beyond friendship is mutual, she did give more warmth than He Chen.

Just as she imagined He Chen to be 'cold-hearted and cold-bodied,' she couldn't help but take the initiative to ask He Chen out, wanting to warm his heart.

This could easily lead He Chen to misunderstand!

However, although she was furious on the surface, she was not disgusted in her heart. This is because once a certain line is crossed between a man and a woman, saying such things will not only not cause disgust, but will only stir up ripples in one's heart.

Besides, with He Chen's face, it's impossible for her to truly dislike anything.

"Alright, enough joking!" He Chen teased her for a moment, then turned to look at the place she had asked him to come to—a bar.

"Why did you choose a place like this? Girls should avoid bars, especially when they're alone!"

“This place is different from other bars!” Seeing He Chen take the initiative to change the subject, Mi Lai took a deep breath, suppressed the ripples in her heart, and pulled He Chen inside.

"My friend Lin Xia sings there, so we're here to support her!"

Miley, who had turned her back, had a strange expression on her face.

He Chen didn't pay any attention and followed with a smile. Mi Lai pulled him to a seat familiarly, where he saw a pretty female singer singing on stage.

"This is Lin Xia! What do you think? Isn't she beautiful?"

"Hehe." He Chen smiled as he looked at Lin Xia on the stage, thinking that he should bring Qiao Weidong along as well. At that time, Qiao Weidong would most likely recognize who Lin Xia on the stage was at a glance.

Isn't this the female one from the opening scene of "My Own Swordsman"?

That is, Guo Furong's maid, Xiaoqing!
Although she was a maid, He Chen thought she was much prettier than one of the main characters, her mistress Guo Furong, when he saw her in his previous life.

"Milai!"

Before Mi Lai could ask what He Chen meant by chuckling, Lin Xia on the stage had already seen Mi Lai and He Chen and immediately spoke up loudly.

"Today I'm going to sing a song for my friend. She used to come alone and sit behind that table to listen to me sing."

Sometimes she sings with me, and sometimes she sings alone.

She never smiled!

But today I saw someone come with her, and I saw her smile!

This proves I was right!
Love will surely triumph if you persevere!

She won.

I will win too!

Throughout my life, Lin Xia has never been inferior to anyone!

By the end, it was practically a shout, his expression extremely excited.

When He Chen looked over, Mi Lai whispered, "Lin Xia is the friend who made me cry, make a scene, and threaten suicide before. She's heartbroken now too, but she's not actually that badly hurt, though she's in a worse situation than me..."

In the end, she couldn't continue, because He Chen's smile was unusually strange, clearly indicating that he had 'misunderstanding' her.

"Do you want to be Xiahe, or Yinyue?" He Chen asked with a smile.

"Who is Yin Yue?" Mi Lai didn't need to ask what Dang Xiao He meant; she had already personally experienced the sisterhood of her good friend Bai Xiao He.

"A master of proxy dating!" He Chen thought of Yin Yue, the spirit fox of Han Tianzun in the novel "A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality," who transformed into her master's body and flirted with a beautiful woman for twenty years, eventually making her willingly become Han Tianzun's concubine, with Han Tianzun only needing to lie down and receive her advances. He summarized it thus.

Miley: "..."
