Love is in the Air Episode 6 Recap
> Love is in the Air Recap
Jiang Yiyi felt a profound awkwardness about the unexpected kiss with Fang Muye. She tried to approach him about it, but he wasn't home. Meanwhile, Fang Muye was suffering from a severe full-body allergic reaction, which Grandpa Hu attributed to his use of Guardian powers during the forbidden month. Grandpa Hu prepared a special medicinal bath for Fang Muye and reiterated that a true Guardian must forsake all emotional attachments.
Fang Muye argued that the previous incident was merely an accident, but Grandpa Hu warned him against any repeat occurrences. Grandpa Hu then noticed nascent Guardian wings forming on Fang Muye’s back, which were intensely hot to the touch. He also received a divine message: a rare total lunar eclipse in two days would provide a critical opportunity for Fang Muye to complete his first Guardian transformation.
This ritual required a one-minute energy transmission with his guarded object, Jiang Yiyi, by interlocking their fingers. Fang Muye found this requirement perplexing, given the Guardian’s oath of emotional detachment, but Grandpa Hu insisted on the importance of this "golden opportunity." Later, Fang Muye visited a children's amusement park, where watching a grandmother and grandson brought back poignant memories of his own grandma comforting him, assuring him of her love despite his parents' absence.
At home, Jiang Yiyi was distracted by a TV segment on "World Kissing Day," amusingly noting that kissing could burn calories. When Fang Muye returned, he commented on her flushed face, which made her even more self-conscious. Jiang Yiyi tried to discuss the accidental kiss, but Fang Muye quickly dismissed it, stating that he was not, and never would be, in love with her. Feeling hurt by his bluntness, Jiang Yiyi video chatted with her friend Zhizhi.
She confessed to feeling desperate from being single and shared her disappointing experience with a dating app Zhizhi had recommended, revealing that profiles like "Wu Dawei" and "Chen Liang" were far from what they claimed. Zhizhi then advised Jiang Yiyi to expand her social circle by befriending younger colleagues at her company. The next morning, Jiang Yiyi overslept, making her late for a matchmaking event, and asked Fang Muye to drive her.
During the ride, she nervously adjusted her makeup while Fang Muye made sarcastic remarks about her appearance and the supposed impatience of men. At the venue, a colleague informed Jiang Yiyi that she had missed the general session but could still join a VIP reception for 1,000 yuan, which promised men from prestigious backgrounds. Jiang Yiyi called Fang Muye, who was waiting in the car, to borrow the money, reminding him she still owed him for past car rentals.
Inside, a staff member explained that men's social status was indicated by the number of badges they wore. Jiang Yiyi soon spotted her boss, Vivian, engrossed in conversation with a badge-laden man. Vivian quickly warned Jiang Yiyi not to interfere. Later, in the restroom, Jiang Yiyi accidentally overheard Vivian flirting with a man.
After he left, Vivian confronted Jiang Yiyi, telling her that she should have never broken up with Chu Tianqi, implying that was why she found herself at such events. Vivian then encouraged Jiang Yiyi to try her luck in the final round, a blindfolded speed-dating session. Back at the gym, Miaomiao presented depressing financial reports to Meng Sizhuo, regretting their business venture. Meng Sizhuo, however, was more interested in Miaomiao's personal life, suggesting she focus on building relationships.
He also proposed a "healthy package" idea to boost gym revenue. Miaomiao later invited Fang Muye to dinner at an organic vegetarian restaurant to discuss this plan. Excited, she carefully chose her outfit and tidied her appearance, which Meng Sizhuo noticed, playfully teasing her about going on a date. At the matchmaking event, Fang Muye, realizing the total lunar eclipse was imminent and Jiang Yiyi was still inside, decided to enter the blindfolded session.
He discreetly located Jiang Yiyi and, as per the Guardian's instructions, interlocked his fingers with hers. Jiang Yiyi felt a strange, familiar sensation during the one-minute energy transfer. Fang Muye's Guardian wings formed, and he instantly teleported back to his car. Jiang Yiyi removed her blindfold to find no one there, wondering if she had imagined the entire encounter. Fang Muye, now back in his car, felt his heart racing, realizing that Jiang Yiyi had changed his destiny.
When Jiang Yiyi finally left the event, Fang Muye was waiting. Vivian approached them, expressing disbelief that Fang Muye was merely Jiang Yiyi's roommate and even asked him if he had any eligible relatives to introduce. As they drove home, Jiang Yiyi couldn't help but glance at Fang Muye, feeling an uncanny resemblance to the person who had held her hand.
She then gave him a business card for an upcoming fitness-themed matchmaking event, suggesting a potential collaboration for Mu-Xing gym's new health package. Alone with her thoughts, Jiang Yiyi reminisced about her past relationship with Chu Tianqi, wondering if Vivian was right about her not letting him go. Meanwhile, Jiang Yiyi had embarked on a shopping spree, believing it would help her burn calories. She bought new high heels and, feeling triumphant, discarded her old sneakers.
However, the high heels quickly became uncomfortable, and when she tried to retrieve her sneakers, she saw a cleaning lady wearing them. Stranded with painful feet and the onset of her period, Jiang Yiyi sat miserably at a bus stop. Fang Muye, having noticed Jiang Yiyi's absence from the gym, called her. Learning of her predicament, he immediately called Miaomiao to cancel their dinner, much to Miaomiao's irritation, who felt he was being overly influenced by Jiang Yiyi.
Fang Muye rushed to Jiang Yiyi's aid, bringing an assortment of sanitary pads, ginger tea, and painkillers. Jiang Yiyi was deeply touched by his thoughtful care, remarking that his presence was more valuable than any money. Since Jiang Yiyi could not walk, Fang Muye borrowed a pedicab from a driver. Jiang Yiyi, changing into new clothes in the pedicab, happily described her vision of true love: an old couple riding a pedicab together, relying on each other regardless of luxury.
Fang Muye watched her joyful expression, wishing that moment could last forever. Later that night, a dejected Miaomiao, stood up by Fang Muye, was drinking alone at a bar. Meng Sizhuo arrived with a female companion and was surprised to find Miaomiao there. He teased her about being stood up, but a visibly upset Miaomiao angrily told him to leave her alone and stop mentioning Fang Muye.
Meng Sizhuo, concerned, tried to persuade her to stop drinking and go home, but she was too drunk to listen. Back home, Jiang Yiyi reflected on Fang Muye's good looks and helpful nature, concluding that she was happy living with him. Her thoughts were interrupted by a text message from Chu Tianqi, informing her that he had officially returned to China and, by a strange coincidence, his new apartment in Swan Apartment was directly opposite hers. Jiang Yiyi was left with mixed feelings, questioning why he would share this news, especially since he supposedly had a girlfriend, and feeling a sudden surge of heat.
