Since I Met U Episode 6 Recap
> Since I Met U Recap
After Jiang Sihan wakes up from her illness, she is back to her cheerful self. In the morning, she has already prepared breakfast and taken care of Rui Rui. She happily asks Cheng Mu for a ride, as she and Rui Rui are going to Sweet to meet her old class president. Cheng Mu's good mood instantly sours. He passive-aggressively invokes their cohabitation agreement, demanding to know where she is going and with whom.
Hearing her plan, he backs out of giving them a ride, claiming he suddenly doesn't have to work. After they leave, Cheng Mu mutters to himself, sarcastically questioning why she is so happy just to be meeting her class president. At his dessert shop, Sol, Cheng Mu's foul mood is evident as he spends the entire morning in the kitchen uncharacteristically cutting lemons.
His assistants gossip about his strange behavior and about Han Xianglan, who has been waiting for Cheng Mu since the morning. She is seen staring suspiciously at the kitchen. When Cheng Mu finally emerges, he feigns ignorance and instructs his assistant, Yihang, to handle her and ensure no one disturbs him. The staff recognizes Han Xianglan as the sister of Han Muzhou, the head of the rival shop Sweet.
Fearing she is there to steal their new ideas, Yihang is tasked with intercepting her. Declaring himself Cheng Mu's "official spokesperson," Yihang skillfully fends off Han Xianglan's attempts to get close to Cheng Mu, deflecting her questions about his personal life with work-related answers. Meanwhile, Jiang Sihan meets her class president, Muzhou, at a park, a location he thoughtfully chose so Rui Rui could play. Jiang Sihan directly confronts him about Sweet allegedly plagiarizing Sol's new dessert.
Muzhou presents a sample, acknowledging the similarities but insisting his company legally purchased the recipe, denying any plagiarism. When Jiang Sihan counters that she personally watched Cheng Mu develop it, Muzhou asks if anyone else saw the notebook containing the ideas, but she struggles to recall. He then probes about her relationship with Cheng Mu, and she clarifies they are only living together to care for Rui Rui.
Muzhou asks Jiang Sihan to promote Sweet as a food blogger, and she agrees. Their meeting is cut short when Rui Rui falls and injures his forehead. Upon receiving the call, a frantic Cheng Mu rushes to the hospital. There, a doctor mistakenly refers to Cheng Mu and Jiang Sihan as Rui Rui's parents.
After ensuring Rui Rui is okay, Cheng Mu pointedly has Jiang Sihan sit in the front passenger seat for the drive home, asserting his place as she apologizes to Muzhou over the phone for the accident. That night, distressed by the day's events, Cheng Mu drinks with his friend, Li Jingyang.
Li Jingyang quickly deduces that Cheng Mu is the secret protagonist in Jiang Sihan's blog stories and points to the rose crystal ball in his room as proof of his deep feelings. He chides Cheng Mu for his passivity, mocking him when he admits his last kiss with Jiang Sihan was a year ago, and warns him that his rival, Muzhou, is now making a move.
Cheng Mu, overwhelmed, retreats to bed, leaving Li Jingyang to muse on the perfect pairings of "Cheng Mu and Jiang Sihan" and "Cheng Yu and Li Jingyang." Elsewhere, Cheng Yu endures a tense business meeting with Mr. Shen, her ex-boyfriend. His company's contract is crucial for her firm's annual revenue, and he uses this leverage to pressure her for a dinner date as "compensation" for their breakup.
Mr. Shen remarks that she always prioritized her younger brother, Cheng Mu, even ending relationships he disliked. Cheng Yu firmly states that her brother's happiness comes before her own. Satisfied with her loyalty, Mr. Shen agrees to discuss the contract over coffee. Later, exhausted, Cheng Yu texts Li Jingyang that she misses him, but he has already passed out drunk and misses her message. Late that night, a tipsy Cheng Mu returns home to find Jiang Sihan awake.
He boldly kisses her, and the moment quickly becomes passionate. However, just as things are escalating, Rui Rui stirs in his room, breaking the spell and causing them to pull away. The next morning, a palpable awkwardness hangs between them. Trying to deflect, Cheng Mu claims he was simply drunk. To change the subject, Jiang Sihan suddenly announces she remembers giving her notebook—the one with Cheng Mu's dessert ideas—to their colleague Bai Bin, and suggests he ask him about it. Flustered, she then hurries away.
