"I slept well last night. You guys should get some rest first. I'll just chop some firewood in the front yard and won't go out."
Leng Mengyao pointed to the front yard of her house, then pointed to the Simmons bed, indicating that the three of them could rest on their own and she would be responsible for the guarding work alone.
