Chapter 2888

The Zhang family celebrated a grand wedding today. It was said that Zhang Baozhu, the legitimate daughter of the Zhang family, was getting married.

As Zhang Weixi and Zhu Zhibin entered Rong City, they heard the news.

"Since they are getting married, we should go and see them off properly," Zhu Zhibin said to Zhang Weixi.

Zhang Weixi replied, "Don't we need to ask around first?"

"Ask what?" Zhu Zhibin asked.

"Find out who Zhang Baozhu is marrying. We don't want to bring trouble upon ourselves." Zhang Weixi explained, "I don't know her very well, but the way she treated me shows she values profit above all. So, the person she marries must not be simple. Otherwise, she wouldn't agree to marry her."

"Wife, you are overthinking it," Zhu Zhibin laughed helplessly. "First, even if your Zhang family has many daughters, not everyone can be manipulated by her. Second, we have a grudge with her. We are not here to curry favor. We are here for revenge. The rule of revenge is simple: if there is one, kill one; if there are two, deal with both. So, you don't need to worry about who is behind her or who she marries."

Hearing this, Zhang Weixi found Zhu Zhibin quite carefree. "Is this what you call 'having nothing to lose'?"

Zhu Zhibin snorted. "Wife, you underestimate your husband. Although I may not compare to your cousins, I have my own career and roots, you know."

"I haven't heard of any career of yours. Explain it to me," Zhang Weixi said with a smile.

Zhu Zhibin paused, realizing he had never mentioned his situation to Zhang Weixi.

She coughed and said, "Wife, have you heard of the Strategist Alliance?"

Zhang Weixi was slightly surprised. "A new organization in the cultivation world. It is said that the people inside are very smart. Many families hire them as advisors. No matter how families fight outside, once these people return to the Strategist Alliance, they unite. So, many family powers in the cultivation world both love and hate the Strategist Alliance."

"Look at what you said, wife. How can it be love and hate? It is because those foolish humans do not understand the people in the Strategist Alliance. They come out just to experience the world. Of course, rising to form a family or power is also good."

She paused again. "Besides, these big families haven't done anything bad. They just compete with each other in a healthy way occasionally."

"Okay, even if it is as you say, what does it have to do with you?" Zhang Weixi asked curiously.

"Well, wife, actually, your husband is the founder and current leader of the Strategist Alliance in the cultivation world," Zhu Zhibin laughed, feeling he had been too low-key.

Zhang Weixi was speechless. She realized she knew nothing about her husband.

"Tell me, what else are you hiding from me?" Zhang Weixi felt it was better to clarify this now.

Zhu Zhibin shook his head quickly. "Apart from this, I really have nothing else."

Zhang Weixi sighed. "Why didn't you tell me such a big thing?"

Zhu Zhibin said, "It's not that I didn't want to say it. I just don't like to suppress people with my status. If I weren't accompanying you for revenge, I wouldn't even remember this identity. After all, for so many years, I have mostly been a hands-off boss."

Having spent time with Zhu Zhibin, Zhang Weixi understood her character. she was meticulous in major matters, but sometimes she ignored things rather than not saying them. So, she was not angry.

"From now on, tell me first if something happens. Do not hide it," Zhang Weixi instructed.

Zhu Zhibin nodded quickly. "Wife, so now you don't need to worry at all. No matter how powerful Zhang Baozhu is or how well she marries, it is not as good as you marrying me."

"You are really praising your own wares," Zhang Weixi said, amused.

Zhu Zhibin grinned, his face showing thick skin. "Wife, I am just saying both good and bad things first. That way, it is better."

Zhang Weixi looked at the Zhang family gate and said, "Let's go in and see."

The Zhang family had some reputation in Rong City. So, many people came to celebrate Zhang Baozhu's wedding, mostly locals.

People have a kind of inertia. Staying in one place for too long makes one feel like looking at the sky from the bottom of a well.

Just like the Zhang family. Having stayed in Rong City for too long, they always thought their family was extraordinary, not knowing how big the outside world was.

Zhu Zhibin and Zhang Weixi did not enter through the main gate, as it required an invitation. They stood directly on the wall.

With Zhu Zhibin, a husband who could ascend at any time, Zhang Weixi did not worry about being discovered.

"It seems the Zhang family is very rich," Zhu Zhibin said, looking down from the wall with Zhang Weixi.

Zhang Baozhu's dowry was indeed substantial.

Since ancient times, a dowry has been a girl's support when she marries.

In the mortal world, dowries are compared by wealth.

In the cultivation world, a girl's dowry usually consists of spiritual energy, spiritual herbs, and spiritual fields.

From Zhang Baozhu's dowry list and the items displayed in the courtyard, it could be seen that there were about ten spiritual artifacts, along with spiritual herbs. Although these were insignificant to Zhu Zhibin, in Rong City, such a dowry was unique.

"Look at her dowry. Do you dislike me?" Zhang Weixi tilted her head, looking at Zhu Zhibin. "I don't have any dowry at all."

"It's fine," Zhu Zhibin said, hugging her waist. "This way, I can focus only on you. If you had a dowry, either you would have to organize it, or I would have to help you. It is too troublesome."

So, dowries had such a big disadvantage?

Zhang Weixi looked at Zhu Zhibin speechlessly. Anyway, he always had a reason for everything.

However, hearing Zhu Zhibin's words, she felt sweet in her heart. Not everyone valued dowries.

"Alright, the groom is here," Zhu Zhibin pointed to a distance where a man riding a flying horse was approaching.

"The groom seems to value Zhang Baozhu quite a bit. she even uses a flying horse to pick her up," Zhang Weixi said.

Nowadays, ordinary horses were usually used for weddings, as flying horses were spiritual beasts and hard to find.

"The more he values her, the better. It is best if Zhang Baozhu ends up with nothing in the end," Zhu Zhibin said calmly.

Zhang Weixi hummed, then examined the groom. "Hmm." Zhang Weixi seemed to recognize this villain.

"Do you know the groom?" Zhu Zhibin asked.

Zhang Weixi said, "This groom was injured three years ago. At that time, I only had one Peiyuan Pill, and I saved him. I didn't expect him to be Zhang Baozhu's husband today. Although that Peiyuan Pill was only of medium quality, I feel like I fed a white-eyed wolf. What a pity."

"That's simple. We will settle the account with him later and get it back with interest," Zhu Zhibin said calmly.

Then Zhu Zhibin looked at Zhang Weixi, his face looking sour. "You didn't have a crush on him, did you?"

"What?" Zhang Weixi looked puzzled. "I just gave him a Peiyuan Pill. I didn't think about anything else."

Zhu Zhibin examined Zhang Weixi seriously. Satisfied that she was telling the truth, she nodded. "Wife, in the future, don't help people in such situations. If you must help, call me. Men and women should keep their distance."

"Why didn't you say 'men and women should keep their distance' when you saved me?" Zhang Weixi snorted. He seemed to have forgotten how they met.

"Wife, that was me saving you, not you saving him," Zhu Zhibin said seriously.

"What kind of standard is that?" Zhang Weixi laughed bitterly again.

Zhu Zhibin said solemnly, "Besides, look. I saved you, and you gave yourself to me."

If Zhang Weixi couldn't see that Zhu Zhibin was jealous at this moment, she would be a big fool.

She looked at Zhu Zhibin speechlessly. "You are worried that she will give himself to me?"

"It's just a precaution," Zhu Zhibin grinned.

Zhang Weixi glared at Zhu Zhibin. "Do you think I would like such a white-eyed wolf? Especially when I have such a perfect husband. Do you think there is any possibility?"

"Yes, yes. With such a perfect husband, you definitely don't need to like this person." Zhu Zhibin was smoothed over by Zhang Weixi's words, feeling very comfortable.

Zhang Weixi rarely saw Zhu Zhibin being so childish, shaking her head with a smile.

At this moment, the groom entered. Naturally, someone symbolically blocked him for a moment. Then, a maid helped Zhang Baozhu out.

Zhang Baozhu wore a bright red dress. She did not cover her head with a red veil, as this was not practiced in the cultivation world. However, the phoenix crown she wore had some tassels that partially obscured her face.

"Baozhu, I am here to pick you up." The groom looked very satisfied with Zhang Baozhu, the bride.

Zhang Baozhu seemed shy. "Thank you, husband."

"Oh my, I didn't expect the beautiful snake to have such a shy moment." A voice appeared, completely out of place for the day.

Zhang Weixi didn't expect anyone else to come and cause trouble. For now, she stayed still.

"Who is it?" Zhang Baozhu's father, the head of the legitimate branch, shouted directly.

"Manager Zhang, no need to shout so much. Since I said it, I naturally have no intention of hiding myself. I will come out." As he spoke, a young man in his twenties appeared.

"It's him." Zhang Weixi clearly recognized him.

"Who is this one again?" Zhu Zhibin was sour again.

"Don't be jealous blindly. This counts as my cousin. Not a direct one, but his father and my father are first cousins," Zhang Weixi introduced.

"So it's a cousin." Zhu Zhibin was no longer jealous. "Then his appearance, is it not to avenge your family?"

"Probably not," Zhang Weixi was not sure. "When my father was alive, although his relationship with my uncle was good, it was not good enough for them to avenge our family's enemies."
