In the past, when Ran Yan worked as a forensic doctor, she sometimes had to rush her work so much that she would eat breakfast while observing corpses, and managing to eat after completing the autopsies was a luxury.
Ran Yan was so starved that after washing her hands and face, she sat back down and quietly began eating, doing so quickly but without losing manners.
Liu Pinrang and Xiao Song watched her with surprise on their faces. While Ran Yan ate, she noticed everyone's gaze, felt she was behaving too out of the ordinary, and silently put down her chopsticks. With a rushed manner, as though she were about to vomit, she said, "If there's nothing else, I'll return to Yingmei Temple first, excuse me."
Having said this, she bowed slightly and hurriedly left with Wan Lu and Ge Lan.
Xiao Song's hearty laughter could be heard from the courtyard, causing Ran Yan's face to burn with embarrassment, and she quickened her pace.
