General Chi was listening outside the door, his eyes red. It had not been easy for Qi'an over the years.
The door was suddenly pushed open. Chi Qian looked at the old man who was half a head shorter than him and said expressionlessly, "You're eavesdropping again."
General Chi blushed and retorted, "Who eavesdropped? I came to see my son and daughter-in-law, is that eavesdropping?"
Chi Qianan didn't say anything. He didn't want to argue with the old man.
Chi Lu pulled him to the pavilion nearby and said, "Come on, come on, play a few games of chess with the old man today."
Chi Qi'an: "Then you can't steal chess pieces this time!"

"If I don't get married, I'm bound to stay on the battlefield. Why would I harm others?"
Chi Lu stood up and slammed the table angrily. "Are you trying to piss me off to death? When I was your age, your father could already walk. Besides, you already have a title, and there will be new soldiers on the battlefield. In my opinion, you should not return to the border in the future. Just stay in the capital!"
Chi Qi'an was in a heavy mood: "I won't stay in the capital."
"You must stay!"
