Chapter 806 - Where’s An’an? (2/2)
But there was a large rock over there, which made it convenient to rest, so Bai Qingqing didn’t object to it.
The four of them went to the flat rock. It so happened that the stone mountain blocked the sunlight from this spot. Parker cleaned the rock briefly, then laid an animal skin over it and asked Bai Qingqing to sit down.
