"In Martial Arts, I could knock his teeth out with just one finger."
"And background? Since when are we of the Mountain Race inferior to those Noble Families from the Central Plains?"
"Besides, I hear that Chen Yi is just an out-of-favor illegitimate son of the Chen Family."
"And as for knowledge… well… your brother has read a few books, as you know."
Pei Guanli let out a pfft, then burst into laughter.
"Brother, you can't compare to brother-in-law in a single one of the things you just listed."
"No way! You think he can beat me?"
"Of course… he can't beat you."
"Hmph. I knew you were just trying to get a rise out of me."
"Because it's true…"
Seeing how lively the conversation inside was, Chen Yi took the black iron mask from the satchel at his side and put it on.
After confirming no one was around, he slipped into the residence.
Just as Pei Guanli was about to keep arguing with Pei Qian, she saw him arrive, and a look of delight spread across her face.
