Liars in Love Episode 6 Recap
> Liars in Love Recap
Jiang Lai woke up naked in Zhou Yu's bed, immediately panicking and wondering if something intimate had occurred between them during her drunken state. She observed her surroundings, concluding that Zhou Yu must be "incapable" as she felt nothing. When Zhou Yu entered the room, she demanded he leave and questioned the whereabouts of her clothes. He calmly handed her garments, reminding her that it was his room.
Noticing his pained expression and rubbing his waist, Jiang Lai mistakenly assumed her intoxicated actions from the previous night were the cause. Zhou Yu then played a video, revealing a very drunk Jiang Lai kicking him and then confidently stripping while declaring herself "a fairy who would never get drunk."
Misunderstanding that something had happened between them, Jiang Lai then agreed to Zhou Yu's past marriage proposal and suggested they live together, hoping this would make it easier to find the contract she was looking for. However, Zhou Yu rejected the cohabitation, explicitly stating that nothing had actually happened between them, which left Jiang Lai feeling deflated. Shortly after this revelation, Chen Yiyi arrived at Zhou Yu's apartment with breakfast, only to find Jiang Lai already there.
Confused and openly jealous, Chen Yiyi questioned why Jiang Lai was in Zhou Yu's home and what they had done the previous night. Later at the office, colleagues discussed Chen Yiyi's upcoming pop-up store, noting her impressive two-year streak as a top-seller. They admired her wealth, beauty, acting talent, and business acumen, though one colleague assured Jiang Lai that Zhou Yu and Chen Yiyi were merely professional partners.
Zhou Yu then asked for someone to accompany Chen Yiyi to the pop-up store, and Jiang Lai volunteered. There, Chen Yiyi seized an opportunity to humiliate Jiang Lai, instructing her to remove an imaginary mole from a large poster of Chen Yiyi. She forced Jiang Lai onto a ladder, giving her confusing and contradictory directions, repeatedly calling her manipulative. As Jiang Lai struggled, Chen Yiyi accidentally fell from the ladder, feigning a serious arm injury.
Chen Yiyi immediately used her supposed injury to her advantage, complaining to Zhou Yu about being alone and unable to care for herself. When Zhou Yu offered to hire a nurse, Chen Yiyi adamantly refused, insisting she move into his house because her injury occurred at his mall due to his employee.
Jiang Lai, seeing through Chen Yiyi's theatrics, tried to expose her by pointing out that the doctor had deemed the injury minor and highlighting the importance of the upcoming pop-up store. However, recognizing Chen Yiyi's successful ploy to infiltrate Zhou Yu's home, Jiang Lai quickly pivoted, cleverly volunteering to move in as well, under the guise of caring for Chen Yiyi.
Reluctantly, Zhou Yu agreed to let both women stay, expressing his discomfort with sharing his living space, noting he only had one guest room. Jiang Lai suggested Chen Yiyi could sleep on the sofa, inwardly acknowledging that Chen Yiyi's machinations were her ticket into Zhou Yu's residence. That evening, Chen Yiyi attempted to occupy Zhou Yu's bedroom, but Jiang Lai intervened, forcing them to share the guest room.
Chen Yiyi, determined to keep Jiang Lai away from Zhou Yu, then faked a fear of the dark during a power outage, forcing Jiang Lai to stay by her side and prevent her from searching for the cause of the outage. The next day, while Jiang Lai was trying to clean Zhou Yu's room to find the contract, Chen Yiyi blocked her, taunting her about her acting skills and assuring her that Zhou Yu would never be deceived.
Later, Chen Yiyi deliberately let Zhou Yu's cat, Mimi, outside, claiming she thought the cat was bored and wanted to play. Upon Zhou Yu's return, he discovered Mimi was missing. Chen Yiyi feigned innocence, claiming Mimi scratched her and then ran away. Despite the heavy rain, Jiang Lai went out to search for the cat. Zhou Yu soon found her, drenched, and questioned why she didn't find shelter.
Jiang Lai, seizing the moment, accused him of only caring for Chen Yiyi. Zhou Yu, feeling a pang of guilt, reassured her, promising, "I won't do this again," and held the umbrella over her. Jiang Lai silently celebrated, feeling a step closer to achieving her goals. Eventually, Mimi returned home on its own, a "smart cat" according to Zhou Yu.
Despite Chen Yiyi's apologies and assurances that such an incident "will never happen again," Zhou Yu, having had enough, ordered her to pack her belongings and leave, informing her that a nurse was hired and Chen Jun would pick her up. Chen Yiyi protested fiercely but was ultimately forced to depart. With Chen Yiyi finally gone, Jiang Lai felt a sense of relief.
While attending to Zhou Yu, who was still experiencing back pain (a lingering effect of Jiang Lai's drunken kicks), and preparing him instant noodles, Jiang Lai unexpectedly discovered the "Lease contract of Snapdragon Farm."
