Rose and Gun Episode 7 Recap
> Rose and Gun Recap
During military training, Wu Si noticed that Cheng Yuan had injured his knee. Despite Cheng Yuan's insistence that it was a minor injury, Wu Si took him to the hospital. At the hospital, they coincidentally met Captain Tang, Tang Xin's father, who was there for an old ailment. While they were talking, Captain Tang mentioned that Tang Xin was parking the car in the basement garage.
Meanwhile, in the basement garage, Tang Xin had just parked when she saw a group of men looking for her car, specifically mentioning its license plate, WEN V67321. Sensing danger, she began to record them with her phone. Back upstairs, Captain Tang called Tang Xin, but she spoke in a hushed tone, saying it wasn't convenient to talk. Wu Si overheard her low voice and found it suspicious.
Remembering seeing some shifty individuals earlier, he quickly left the hospital to check on her. He arrived in the basement just as the men were starting to smash Tang Xin's car. Wu Si intervened, confronting the men who told him to mind his own business. He refused to back down and fought them off. Later, Tang Xin confided in Lan Yangyang, feeling unsettled.
She wondered if Wu Si was the person who had saved her in the past, questioning whether it was just wishful thinking or if he truly resembled him. Tang Xin's damaged car incident reached the attention of Mr. Tian, her manager. He expressed concern for her safety, reminding her that her investigative reports, which expose hidden secrets, have likely made her enemies.
He warned her to be more cautious, but Tang Xin asserted that she wouldn't let the incident go unpunished. Elsewhere, Zong Qing was preparing to propose to Lan Yangyang. He expressed his anticipation for this day and his belief that they were on the same page about their future. At the same time, Lan Yangyang was having a job interview for a public relations position.
Despite her high academic achievements in medicine, a field her parents chose for her but which she disliked, she struggled to answer the interviewer's questions about PR. Her lack of relevant experience and understanding of the corporate world led to her rejection. Wu Si, worried about Tang Xin's safety after the car incident, called her to check in.
Tang Xin told him that the person who originally provided the coordinates for her investigation insisted the coordinates hadn't changed, but the ones on her computer were different, leading her to suspect her computer had been tampered with. Wu Si advised her to change her email password and keep her laptop with her. He also offered to accompany her to the new coordinates the coming weekend to investigate together.
Tang Xin gratefully accepted his offer, admitting she was struggling with how to arrange the third trip herself. On the weekend, Wu Si and Tang Xin went to the coast to rent a boat. Wu Si told the boat owner they wanted to go diving near Dayan Reef. As they arranged for the boat, they observed something that made them uneasy. Meanwhile, feeling down after her failed interview, Lan Yangyang called Zong Qing.
She sensed a strange cheerfulness in his tone, and he cryptically told her he would find a way to make her happy and asked her to come to a specific location quickly. Zong Qing, who had arranged for friends to be present at a precise time for his proposal, suddenly heard cries for help – a child had fallen into the water.
Without hesitation, Zong Qing jumped into the water, despite being in his proposal clothes, and successfully rescued the child. A crowd gathered, praising his heroic actions and bringing him the flowers he had prepared. Lan Yangyang arrived and was surprised to see Zong Qing soaking wet. The bystanders recounted his bravery. As Zong Qing prepared to propose, he realized he had lost the ring in the water during the rescue.
Despite this, he knelt down, holding the flowers, and asked Lan Yangyang to marry him for life, expressing his love and acceptance of her as she was. Lan Yangyang, touched by his heroism and sincerity, happily accepted his proposal, and the surrounding crowd celebrated. Later, on the boat trip to Dayan Reef, Wu Si and Tang Xin discussed the case.
Tang Xin explained that she had received multiple anonymous emails over time, not just one, and had corroborated information with the Cultural Relics Bureau, who confirmed that sunken cultural relics were appearing in international markets. This information motivated her to pursue the investigation herself. Wu Si suggested contacting Bai Zijian, the husband of Captain Wang Chen, whom Tang Xin had previously interviewed, as he recently transferred to the Wenzhou Marine Museum.
He also suggested involving the Cultural Relics Bureau to lead an official underwater survey, believing it would help bring the investigation to fruition if they found something that day. Wu Si and Tang Xin further discussed the implications of her computer being tampered with. Wu Si pointed out that if her suspicion was correct, it meant the people she was investigating knew about her activities. Tang Xin confirmed that the men who smashed her car were likely sent by them.
She named the people who knew about her investigation: herself, Mr. Tian, Hai, and Han Yuhang, who had helped her rent the boat for a previous trip. Wu Si questioned why she would involve Han Yuhang, given that her research now pointed towards his family's company, Changzhou Group, as the likely culprits. Tang Xin explained she had asked him for help before she had those specific clues and admitted it was an oversight.
She clarified that Han Yuhang didn't have access to her computer during their previous trip. She suspected the tampering occurred when she was framed at Baitun Bay, as the police entering her room at the guesthouse would have had the opportunity. Wu Si emphasized the importance of keeping her investigation details secret from Han Yuhang and urged her to prioritize her safety.
