The contrast between Song Xu's serious attitude and the casual look of these policemen is very clear, so you must strive for excellence in everything you do, after all, you love it.
Song Xu was a noble lady from a famous family, but she started working as a forensic doctor. Everyone couldn't understand her and even talked about her stupidity behind her back.
