"Let's have the guys take a break and get something to eat first. They need to get their energy back."
Fang Zhen rubbed his shoulders. The night before, he'd fallen asleep on Li Yun's back. That didn't mean he'd slept too well. He had obvious dark circles under his eyes.
"Are you not gonna compete with Yang Jian to see who can get to the meeting spot first anymore?"
