Episode 28 recap: Tong Sheng's backup of experiment data was reported by Chen Xue Wei.
That day, Tong Sheng urgently called Tong Jiang Nan, saying that their backup of experiment data had been discovered by An Ni and the school principal. Tong Jiang Nan was shocked and quickly inquired about the situation. Tong Sheng said that today An Ni and the school principal came to the lab to check on the experiment progress, and the matter was exposed by Chen Xue Wei.
The governor learned of this and immediately ordered the police to seal the university lab, and also that all people going out must be accompanied by police officers and not allowed to move around freely without permission. The police officer responsible for handling this matter personally went to the Tong family home and instructed his subordinates to station two people at the Tong family door, so that whether it was Tong Jiang Nan or Tong Sheng, they had to be accompanied whenever they went out.
Li Wen Bo had just been suspended by the English School, and Cai Chu Sheng immediately took over his position, quickly gaining power, which angered the others. Facing Cai Chu Sheng's provocation, Li Wen Bo reminded him that although he got dressed quickly, he could also get stripped off quickly, and that the one who was on top today may be the one on the bottom tomorrow.
Zhang Shao Mu went to accuse Tong Jiang Nan, first criticizing Su Xing for slandering him as a Nationalist spy, and second suspecting that Su Xing had instigated Dang Xun Qi to do so many things. Tong Jiang Nan felt that Zhang Shao Mu's words were not entirely unreasonable, and he also wanted Su Xing to reform, but Zhang Shao Mu persuaded Tong Jiang Nan not to have any illusions.
In the middle of the conversation, Tong Sheng suddenly appeared, learning that Su Xing had gone to the school to find Zhang Shao Mu, and hurriedly went out to inquire about the reason, telling Zhang Shao Mu that he should give Su Xing a chance. Zhang Shao Mu could feel that no matter Tong Sheng or Tong Jiang Nan, their feelings for Su Xing could not be changed, and he proposed to compete fairly with Su Xing, hoping that Tong Sheng could take a look at him.
An Ni, on the governor's orders, came to the lab to visit and inquire about the progress of the experiment. Unexpectedly, Chen Xue Wei suddenly revealed the matter of Tong Sheng's backup of experiment data, shocking An Ni and the others. Although Tong Sheng consistently denied doing the backup, Chen Xue Wei spoke with great certainty, claiming to have witnessed it herself, so An Ni no longer believed Tong Sheng and Zhang Shao Mu's words.
Subsequently, An Ni reported the situation to the governor. Tong Sheng immediately informed Tong Jiang Nan, and reminded Zhang Shao Mu to handle his relationship with Chen Xue Wei well. Zhang Shao Mu angrily accused Chen Xue Wei of not supposed to say those words, but Chen Xue Wei bluntly said that she respected Professor Tong's character, but that did not mean she had to take responsibility for Tong Sheng's wrongdoing.
In Chen Xuewei's view, experimental data should be kept in the lab, but Tong Sheng secretly backed up and even took the data, which was irresponsible of him. Chen Xuewei believed she did nothing wrong, but Zhang Shaomu told her about the consequences of such actions, causing deep regret in Chen Xuewei. Tong Jiangnan immediately rushed to the hospital to see President Qian, admitting that they had indeed backed up the data, and believing that with President Qian's integrity, he would definitely not leak it.
To ensure the safety of the data, Tong Jiangnan instructed Tong Sheng on some matters, and then went to see the Governor, insisting that he would not hand over the data. The Governor was angered by this and ordered the police to seal the laboratory at the Ocean University, and also required that Tong Jiangnan must be accompanied by police officers whenever he went out, and could not move around freely without permission.
Su Xing secretly met with Abiao to inquire about Ahui's movements, and based on Dang Xunqi's abnormal behavior before her death, inferred that Zhang Shaomu was most likely the one who replaced Luo Guanying to get close to Tong Jiangnan. After listening to Su Xing's analysis and combining it with previous clues, Abiao confirmed Su Xing's suspicions, and the urgent task now was to follow the leads and find the real mastermind behind it all.
To ensure Ahui had no worries, Su Xing said he would send someone to keep watch around the warehouse, and if Ahui made any moves, Abiao would mark it on the nearby wall. Abiao found Lin Shiman to gauge the situation and unexpectedly learned about the Bee Plan formulated by Mao Renfeng, with Luo Guanying as the first "worker bee", and after Luo Guanying's death, a secret agent was inserted around Tong Jiangnan again.
On the other side, Tong Jiangnan was worried about the data backup leak and found it very difficult to meet with Zhang Shaomu. Cai Chusheng was ordered to seal the lab, and he personally went to the Tong family, instructing his subordinate Shouhoutou to station two people at the Tong family's doorstep, so that whether it was Tong Jiangnan or Tong Sheng, they had to be accompanied whenever they went out.
Cai Chusheng reminded Tong Jiangnan that as Chinese people trying to make a living in Hong Kong, they had to obey the British. The Tong father and daughter firmly refused to be their lackeys. That night, Chen Xuewei went to Zhang Shaomu's house, and the guarding police officer, out of respect for her status, did not dare to stop her. Zhang Shaomu, in order to get in touch with Tong Jiangnan, utilized Chen Xuewei to convey a message to him, and Chen Xuewei agreed without any suspicion.
Ahui told Zhang Shaomu that he could only find a ship through Lin Shiman now, and Zhang Shaomu had no choice but to pin his hopes on her.
