Love Unexpected Episode 6 Recap
> Love Unexpected Recap
Upon her arrival at Xu Nuo's opulent mansion, Ke Siyi was awestruck by the sheer luxury, momentarily overlooking his fastidious nature. Xu Nuo immediately laid down a litany of meticulous rules: items must be returned to their precise spots, phone conversations limited to sixty decibels, no vulgar music, no purchases contradicting his taste, and personal belongings kept out of sight. Crucially, he forbade her from revealing their cohabitation to anyone at his company.
He also declared the sauna and his bathroom strictly for his use first, with Ke Siyi only permitted entry after he had finished. He then clarified Ke Siyi's purpose in his home: to protect him and ensure she avoids injury. The next morning, Ke Siyi prepared a lavish breakfast of millet porridge, soybean milk, egg rolls, and bacon.
However, Xu Nuo reacted with characteristic coldness, reprimanding her for touching his kitchen without permission and deeming her homemade meal unhygienic, stating his lawyer, Zhou Yanxin, handled his breakfast. Ke Siyi defended her actions, explaining that since childhood she had cared for her father and managed household chores.
As she stepped away to answer a phone call, Xu Nuo, drawn by the aroma, secretly began to devour the food she had prepared, which Ke Siyi observed with a subtle, knowing smile. Later that day, as Xu Nuo sought a peaceful nap, Ke Siyi's loud, off-key singing shattered the quiet. Annoyed, Xu Nuo grabbed tape, intending to silence her. In the ensuing struggle, they stumbled onto the sofa, their lips accidentally touching.
Despite the mishap, Ke Siyi playfully accused him of taking advantage of her, an accusation Xu Nuo coolly dismissed. When Xu Nuo's stomach growled, Ke Siyi offered to cook dinner. She proudly presented her "exclusive secret fried rice with egg," boasting of its ingredients and calling it "May your gold and jade fill the halls." Xu Nuo took one bite, immediately spat it out, and retreated to his room without a word.
Confused, Ke Siyi felt an inexplicable surge of sadness and a desire to cry. Meanwhile, Xu Nuo sat alone in his room, gazing at a photograph of his deceased mother. He recalled his mother had also made that same dish, yet despite the memory, he felt no emotional shift, growing annoyed by his inability to feel anything.
The following day, Ke Siyi told Xu Nuo about her unsettling emotional shifts—sudden bouts of sadness and a desire to cry, feelings she recognized as not her own. Xu Nuo scoffed, calling her neurotic. Later, at the office, his colleagues surprised Xu Nuo with a birthday cake and song. Zhou Yanxin quickly intervened, pulling Xu Nuo away, who instructed him to treat the new colleagues, acknowledging their good intentions.
Ke Siyi, observing Xu Nuo, felt a profound internal pain, believing she was mirroring his emotions. She insisted to Zhou Yanxin that she felt Xu Nuo’s deep sadness, despite his stoic appearance. Zhou Yanxin, frustrated, told her to know her place. Enraged by the celebration, Xu Nuo abruptly left the office. A remorseful Zhou Yanxin blamed himself for the incident. Ke Siyi persistently questioned him until he revealed Xu Nuo's whereabouts, driven by the intense emotions she felt.
Zhou Yanxin relented, confessing that today was not only Xu Nuo's birthday but also the anniversary of his mother's death in a car accident, a tragedy that led Xu Nuo to never celebrate his birthday again. Upon learning the truth, Ke Siyi rushed to the cemetery, where she found Xu Nuo at his mother’s grave. He was speaking aloud to his mother, mentioning his emotional detachment.
Ke Siyi approached, telling him he appeared fearful and sad but was unable to cry, and offered to cry for him. She advised him to recall his mother's embrace and hug himself when feeling sad. Xu Nuo then revealed that at his mother's funeral, he couldn't shed a tear despite being an emotional person, which led relatives to call him cold-blooded. He explained his way of coping with profound sadness was to hug himself as his mother used to.
Ke Siyi immediately recognized his story, and they both realized they were the "zero empathy" and "100% empathy" individuals from the psychological treatment program where she had been a volunteer. Meanwhile, Liang Zhixiao visited Li Da, who casually mentioned Ke Siyi had moved into the company dormitory. Surprised, Liang Zhixiao was quickly pulled aside by Lin Wen.
She warned him not to tell Li Da about Ke Siyi’s dangerous role as Xu Nuo’s bodyguard, persuading him that loving someone means respecting their choices. Hinting at his own affection for Ke Siyi, Liang Zhixiao was swayed by Lin Wen's argument that girls prefer boys who understand and believe in them. Fearing Li Da would become gravely ill if he knew the truth, Liang Zhixiao reluctantly agreed to keep quiet.
Later, Ke Siyi recounted in detail the complex emotions she felt mirroring his during the birthday incident. Convinced by her accuracy, Xu Nuo admitted that he now believed she could feel his emotions. At that moment, he suddenly clutched his stomach in pain. Realizing her own hunger was causing his agony, Ke Siyi rushed to buy him medicine.
Concerned when she took too long, Xu Nuo went to find her and was ambushed by an angry factory owner whose business he had ruined. Ke Siyi arrived just in time to shield Xu Nuo from a blow. The attacker fled. Ke Siyi felt no pain, but Xu Nuo winced in agony from the impact. This provided the first physical proof to Ke Siyi that her pain had transferred to him.
After a doctor confirmed Xu Nuo was not seriously injured, Ke Siyi, needing absolute confirmation, spontaneously slapped herself. Immediately, Xu Nuo cried out in pain, a direct and undeniable confirmation of the physical transfer. With this realization, they both affirmed their new understanding: he could feel her pain, just as she could feel his emotions. Both bewildered, they wondered why such an extraordinary exchange was occurring, pondering if it was fated love.
