Investing in My Wife: But She's Already the Strongest!
Chapter 19: Gift for the Guests
Kissing after officially getting married was common in the modern era.
Miya looked as though she wanted it as well.
Normally, at other people’s weddings, the guests would cheer and shout for the newlyweds to kiss.
That didn’t happen here.
Everyone seemed too afraid to say anything.
Although the situation was a little different, Enzo knew he couldn’t hesitate.
His left hand pulled Miya’s right hand, which he was still holding, while his right arm wrapped around her slender waist.
Everyone’s eyes widened as Miya was pulled toward Enzo.
Once her body pressed against his, Enzo kissed her dark red lips.
It didn’t matter that they had only met today.
The point was that Miya was his wife.
To him, she was his wife first and Lady Stanley second.
DING!
(You have given your wife something that made her happy. Her happiness level has reached 99%, equivalent to giving her something beneficial to her cultivation. You have received a body enhancement reward from the System. Your body has been upgraded from Perfect Human Body to Supreme Human Body!)

[Soul:

[Technique: None]
Another notification appeared just like that.
A kiss was an action.
Did an action also count as giving something?
Since he had received a reward, the answer was apparently yes.
Enzo still couldn’t care less about it, nor did he have the slightest desire to think about anything else while his wife was in his arms.
His head felt like it was boiling when his lips touched hers, carrying the sweet taste of wine.
It felt incredible, as if he had defeated every man in the world.
At the very least, every man present felt like they had lost.
Their faces reddened as they watched the scene, while the two young women beneath the altar took deep breaths.
Eva, who was still standing with Mr. Joe, froze with her breathing becoming ragged, unable to maintain her composure.
She had once regarded Enzo as an ungrateful man for ignoring her, despite her being a beautiful and wealthy woman.
Ever since it became clear that Enzo had a defect that prevented him from becoming a Spiritual Warrior, Eva had lost all interest in him.
To her, appearance was only half of what mattered.
Strength was the real priority.
Because of that, she often mocked Enzo for being a man who had thrown away his opportunity.
Unfortunately, today, Enzo had shown her what an opportunity truly looked like.
Unlike her, Mr. Joe merely smiled faintly, while Miya’s three friends sitting at the dining table displayed various expressions.
Enzo could see Miya’s eyes from extremely close range. She blinked occasionally, but her gaze remained focused on his eyes.
After only a moment, both her hands moved to his neck.
The people began cheering and applauding, while even more roses fell across almost the entire hall.
"Hey, you two! People don’t kiss for that long on an altar. Stop!"
The elderly priest’s voice echoed through the hall, snapping Enzo out of his daze.
He instinctively stopped.
Miya did the same. She couldn’t pretend not to hear the elderly priest either.
When she turned toward the guests, she signaled for the host to give her a microphone.
The host quickly handed one to her.
"Ehmm!"
Miya merely cleared her throat softly, and that alone was enough to silence everyone.
"First, I, Miya Stanley, would like to thank all the guests for attending this wedding," she said.
"Hahaha, we’re the lucky ones to be able to attend. This is the best wedding I’ve ever seen."
"Indeed, truly the wedding of the century."
"May the two of you be happy forever."
Several people responded.
They were probably people who were genuinely close to her, having business partnerships with the Stanley Family and having met her personally more than once or twice.
Miya smiled faintly.
"I’m truly happy today because I’ve finally taken this step," she continued.
"Since you’ve all made the effort to come here, I naturally won’t be stingy."
As she said that, something appeared above her palm—a purple rose made of condensed light.
Seeing it, everyone became restless.
"That’s Moonlight Liquid..."
"Is that the thing that can forcibly raise one’s cultivation from Level 9 to Level 10 even without mastering a technique at that level?"
"That’s right... Your cultivation will be raised. Although you’ll be weaker than a true Level 10, your energy will be on par with those at Level 10, which means you can easily suppress Level 9 cultivators. With a higher level, your mind will also become faster, making it easier to master a Level 10 technique."
"That’s an incredibly expensive item."
"Is she going to give it to one of the guests?"
"..."
Miya gave everyone a moment to discuss it before speaking again.
"Among all the roses that have fallen, one of them conceals a purple coin containing my aura. Whoever finds it will receive this Moonlight Liquid. The use of cultivation power is prohibited..." she announced.
The moment they heard that, everyone began gathering the roses around them.
"This one is mine!"
Several people fought over the same rose after grabbing it simultaneously.
Enzo rolled his eyes when he saw the scene.
In an instant, the hall descended into chaos.
Tables were overturned and sent flying.
Since no cultivation power was being used, the formation protecting the hall naturally wasn’t activated.
The bodies of cultivators were still powerful because of the Spiritual Energy within them, so it was easy for them to smash tables apart.
The main stage even collapsed shortly afterward when too many people stepped onto it because there were so many roses scattered across it.
The young members of the Stanley Clan also joined the search, except for Bryan, who seemed intent on maintaining his reputation, and the two women beneath the altar.
Enzo then noticed that Eva wasn’t standing idle either.
After getting permission from Mr. Joe, she also began gathering roses nearby.
"This... Is this it?"
Someone suddenly shouted while raising a hand holding a purple coin with a faint glow.
Enzo’s expression became strange.
It was the cold instructor.
Andrea Allen.
Enzo had no idea when she had entered, but there were indeed several security personnel accompanying her.
