— I liked it back then

— The cup carried by the Sejong Hwarang trio

— The atmosphere back then was so good

— It’s the springtime of youth

— Sejong Captain doesn’t post on Instagram often

— He posted Gohn, a three-shot with Rang and Dyoong

— I didn’t know it back then, but the captain and the older brothers were babies too

— lolll I wonder if Rang has fixed his pronunciation by now?

— When he called them heong-a, he really sounded like a baby, and they were only two years older than him loll

— At that age, a two or three-year difference is huge!!

“Mr. President, they say our player Sarang is getting married.

“What’s the big deal about a player getting married early… What? Who?

“Our player Kim Sarang.

“What? Where did this rumor come from this time! Just because they’re reporters, they can’t just spread rumors like this! Who got their feelings hurt this time!

“It’s on public television. It came up as a news flash on the screen, too. They say he’s having a simple wedding in the form of a mass on Christmas this year.

“With who?

“Who do you think?

At Junghoon’s indifferent response, a horrified Jaehyeok was on the verge of screaming.

“Did he get someone pregnant? Is that what happened? With which Omega? He’s a decent kid, right? No, our Rang isn’t the type to…

“What do you mean ‘a decent kid,’ and what do you mean ‘the type’?

“Have you heard from that Jones guy yet?

“Not yet. If he was going to contact us, he should have done so by now.

“Why?

“Hyung, are you still drunk? Who do you think player Sarang’s marriage partner is?

Jaehyeok, who had indeed been drinking heavily until dawn and wasn’t sober yet, saw his rapidly darting eyes widen as if they were about to pop out.

“Florian?

“Yes, the future Duke and Chairman of Wellington.

“Crazy! Should we break our contract? That would be better, right? Huh? You think about it too. We’re always up all night cleaning up their messes! Why are they working at dawn, for crying out loud?

“It’s not that they’re working at dawn, it’s because of the time difference.

“No, let’s break the contract for the sake of our health! We’re going to die before our time at this rate! What’s wrong with them? Why are they always waking us up at the crack of dawn, and why are we always the last to know? Why do they always blindside us? Why do we always find out later than the media!

“You said you love player Kim Sarang fiercely. You said he’s a player who’s going to be big. You said you’d never let him go no matter how dirty and cheap it gets?

“No, well, our Sarang is like that. Ah, and who said I was actually going to break the contract? We don’t even have the money for the penalty fee! I’m just saying that’s how much they’re pissing me off!

“Oh? An email just came in from Bailey Jones.

Jaehyeok, who had been spewing out his pent-up complaints like fire while simultaneously checking portal sites, his phone, and pulling out emergency manuals, quickly leaned in toward Junghoon’s monitor.

“What’s he blabbering about now.

“Stop pretending you can’t speak English and translate it quickly.

“Dear Mr. Lee. ‘Dear,’ my ass. But why is our office so quiet? The phone should have rung at least a hundred times by now, right? My phone is quiet too. Don’t tell me people forgot we’re Sarang’s management?

“I took the receiver off the hook. Your phone and mine are in airplane mode, and Soogyeong went out for lunch.

For a moment, a stunned Jaehyeok immediately came to his senses.

“Right, good job. We have to know what’s going on to even try to control the damage.

Tapping Junghoon’s head approvingly, Jaehyeok began to read the email quickly.

Mansion 1 was quite bustling, unlike usual.

Florian and Bailey sat on the left side of the sofa, with Miller standing guard behind them. On the opposite side were Sarang and Neil, with Allen standing guard behind them. It was a typical confrontational setup, but they had already been wrangling for over half a day, each trying to insert favorable conditions for their side.

“Sarang, that is a disadvantageous clause for the Alpha. Please review it again with Neil.

“Neil told me. But I still want to include it.

Sarang, who was drinking lukewarm water instead of tea, rubbed his tired eyes, and Florian extended his hand.

“Hold my hand, Sarang.

“Okay, Rian.

Sarang naturally took Florian’s hand, and thanks to the pheromones transmitted directly, his eyes felt much more comfortable as he read through the document.

Allen, watching the scene with a look of utter disgust, mouthed a curse. Miller didn’t look too pleased either.

“Rian, let’s revise this part too. I don’t want to hear people say I married you for your money.

“This penalty amount is quite normal, Sarang. No, it’s an amount that’s been reduced as much as possible to respect your wishes, Sarang.

“Then… let’s leave this and change this one a little.

“Hmm, that’s also problematic.

“Rian says everything is problematic…

“If you have a complaint, you can just persuade me logically, Sarang.

Whether he was going easy on him or not, Florian’s eyes held a glint of amusement as he watched Sarang discussing matters with Neil with a serious expression.

In any case, in the northern part of the Commonwealth, at Mansion 1, a prenuptial agreement, more peaceful and altruistic than any other in the world, was being steadily drafted.

The wedding was decided to be held in the form of a mass at the parish within the ducal estate.

It was a private and very modest ceremony with a limited number of guests. It wasn’t modest by aristocratic standards, but it was extremely modest even by the standards of the general public. It was Sarang’s request. Sarang did not want it to be disclosed to the media either. The reason was that it was burdensome and uncomfortable. Since holding a grand wedding with a partner he would divorce anyway would be of no benefit to Florian, that part was easily agreed upon.

From the Wellington family, Florian’s parents were to attend, and from the ducal family, Princess Erica was to attend in place of the bedridden duke. From the palace, they decided to send the heir to the throne in place of the king, who was in poor health. The Wellington brothers, who had harbored high hopes of officially seeing the young Alpha that Florian was crazy about, were not invited. Thanks to this, Bailey had to listen to threats disguised as complaints until his ears bled, but Florian was merciless toward his brothers.

Sarang had no guests. Neil was to attend as his legal representative, and Allen was to be there as his bodyguard. That was all. To Florian’s cautious question of whether there was really no one to invite, Sarang smiled and nodded. Sarang had no parents or siblings. Sarang, who had been everyone’s child when he lived on 97th Street, was now only the child of the deceased Colin.

Although he was a beloved team member within the Rhinos club, there was no one with whom he was close enough to attend his wedding. He couldn’t rashly invite the age-group national teams or the senior national team members, with whom he had been like brothers. This was after hearing Jaehyeok’s advice that if he did, he would have to invite everyone in a line, starting with the football association president.

‘Those kinds of political interests are complicated.’

Florian, smiling as if he understood, also made his own guest list blank.

‘It doesn’t seem so bad to just have a simple vow ceremony with just the two of us, right, Sarang?’

And so, they held the ceremony with truly just the two of them at the parish within the ducal estate. The bishop of the parish officiated, and Bailey and Neil attended as witnesses. It was a short, 30-minute ceremony where they exchanged rings and made their wedding vows.

Later, the public relations team informed the press that “it was held privately for security reasons,” but no one believed it at face value. Various speculative articles poured out, but neither the ducal family, the Wellington family, nor the palace responded to the media. The public’s attention, which had been focused on the indiscriminate flood of articles, began to disperse when news of the third prince’s misbehavior broke out and the Premier League Boxing Day (the end-of-year season with a concentration of matches) began.

In the process, some minor complaints about the media’s conduct were also expressed. The criticism was that they were being too aggressive toward a kid who hadn’t even shed his youthful appearance yet. This was a discomfort that came mainly from Europe or the United States, not locally in the Commonwealth.

Although it had been two years since Sarang became an adult, it was a misunderstanding that arose from his naturally youthful appearance combined with his racial characteristics. On one hand, there were even suspicions that Florian had taken a minor as his spouse, but this was quickly quashed by the active clarification from Coneus and Premier League fans.

Thanks to this, the fact that Premier Leaguer Kim Sarang was 20 years old in his 4th year since his professional debut and ranked within the top 5 strikers in the league spread like wildfire throughout Europe and was firmly imprinted. After that, a sentiment even formed that it felt discriminatory to say he looked young, and people began to refrain from it.
