21. Opening!

.

.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was worried about what to do, but I was able to proceed smoothly by following the emcee (Seo Hyun)’s words.

 

And now, the long-awaited ring time.

 

Actually, giving a ring is something you do at a wedding. But I’m giving it while proposing. In other words, you could say it’s a proposal that has grown to an Andromeda-level scale.

 

 

The problem is that there are two targets.

 

 

If I make it this grand, the alienated person might feel a little bitter…like Sonya-ssi.

 

 

 

[Sora-nim and Yuna-nim, please stand side by side in front of Master-nim.]

 

The two women stood in front of me.

The orchestra, which played appropriate music every time the event progressed, and the guests, who always gave applause and cheers, are silent.

 

 

Perhaps that’s why I’m more focused on the two of their faces.

 

 

[I will now deliver the rings to Master-nim. These rings were handcrafted stitch by stitch by the artisan (Eun-joo) several months ago and will be a unique proof that does not exist anywhere else in the world.]

 

A maid walked over ttogak ttogak and opened a luxurious box.

Inside, two ring boxes were carefully placed on something like soft silk, and the surroundings were decorated with various cloths.

 

 

Eun-joo gave me the rings when she finished making them…she must have taken them from my room. It must have taken her a while to find them, she’s resourceful.

 

 

 

Gulppeog.

 

 

 

When I took out one of the ring boxes, someone nearby swallowed.

It seems to be either Sora-nuna or Yuna-ssi.

 

 

 

Hmm…who goes first…when deciding who goes first, it’s best to go by age.

Actually, I met them almost at the same time.

 

 

So, I approached Sora-nuna first.

 

 

If I’m going to do an event, it’s better to give them a proper impression for the future!

I knelt down on one knee in front of Nuna and showed her the ring box. A scene that often appears in dramas!

 

I wanted to try it at least once.

 

 

“Oh!”

 

Various sounds were heard from among the guests.

 

 

“Ah…”

 

Sora-nuna covered her mouth with both hands.

It’s kind of fun to see this expression.

 

 

“Yoo Sora-ssi, will you be my wife?”

 

 

She’s already a wife, so I should ask if she’ll be my ‘Bi’ exactly, but there are many people and the atmosphere seems to fit, so I changed the word.

 

 

But there’s no problem understanding.

 

 

“…Yes!”

 

 

Nuna nodded, sobbing.

 

I already knew the result, but hearing it like this makes my heart flutter too.

 

 

 

 

 

I took out the ring, grabbed Nuna’s left hand, and put the ring on her ring finger.

 

 

I wondered if it was too loose, but it soon shrunk on its own to the right size.

 

 

 

I stood up, pulled Nuna’s waist, and kissed her.

 

 

“Ooh!”

 

 

The orchestra’s performance, bursting out as if on cue.

I kissed her for about a minute while the music played, and I don’t think I’ll ever forget her dazed expression when I took my lips off.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Next is Yuna-ssi.

 

 

In fact, she had been neglected for a few minutes, but she doesn’t seem to mind. There are two people up here, so this can’t be helped.

 

 

 

 

I knelt down on one knee and opened the ring box, just like I did with Sora-nuna.

 

 

“….”

She didn’t sob like Nuna, but her breathing is quite rough. The corners of her mouth are trembling, she seems to be forcing herself to manage her expression.

 

“Yuna-ssi, will you be my wife?”

 

I was worried that she might think I was insincere because it was the same line as before, but that wasn’t the case.

Yuna-ssi didn’t say anything, she just nodded.

 

 

She’s pressing her lips tightly, probably because she feels like something will burst out from inside if she speaks.

 

 

 

 

 

Seueuk.

 

After putting the ring on Yuna-ssi, a kiss.

 

Normally, given her personality, she wouldn’t be able to do anything like aggressive skinship in this situation where so many people are watching and there’s a possibility that videos will be circulating later, but for some reason, she’s quite aggressive today.

 

As if she was releasing the emotions she had been holding back with her lips closed, Yuna-ssi’s tongue attacked me aggressively in her invisible mouth.

 

 

I even regret that the time is limited.

 

 

I kissed Sora-nuna for about a minute, so kissing Yuna-ssi for about a minute is good for the image, at least in this kind of public event.

 

 

 

 

 

After Yuna-ssi’s turn was over, I hugged both Nunas and kissed them on the cheek once each.

“It’s so absurd, really.”

 

The event is almost over.

 

 

Yoo-eun put rings on both women and used her skill to promote them to ‘Bi’.

 

 

What’s absurd is that the guests here, starting with the President, gave tremendous applause and cheers while watching that scene.

 

 

“To have to applaud while watching something like this.”

 

Min Yae-rin, who didn’t like Yoo-eun from the start and naturally didn’t like this ridiculous event, felt like she was going to throw up.

 

 

“What can you do? You have to applaud. When else would you get an opportunity like this?”

“…Hmph.”

 

 

She gets even more annoyed by the words of the chief prosecutor next to her.

 

 

 

 

 

 

South Korea has a monogamous system and concubinage is strictly illegal. But quite a few people with power have lovers. From their perspective, Yoo-eun is a vanguard.

She shamelessly reveals herself and holds grand events and parties…

 

 

Moreover, the head of the country, the President, was here, as well as prosecutors including the chief prosecutor, and countless people from the National Police Agency.

 

 

If the law is said to be the justice of the country, then the knights of justice are those who enforce that law, such as prosecutors, judges, and police officers.

 

 

Since they applauded Yoo-eun’s actions, they will have a lot to say if they get caught in a similar problem later.

 

 

 

“Disgusting.”

 

She shakes her head, revealing her disgust without hiding it.

 

“Anyway, what are you going to do? Are you going to continue? Lawyer Lee is your friend, right?”

“Of course I have to. And who’s my friend? She’s my enemy.”

“Be careful. I can’t support you.”

“Hmph. Chicken.”

“Oh? You’re abnormally bold, you bitch.”

 

Min Yae-rin didn’t say anything more and left her seat.

She didn’t want to be here any longer.

 

 

“Tsk tsk tsk…what are you doing after getting promoted to deputy chief? Do you have a hundred lives? That’s why those who live for their own ego have short lives.”

 

He muttered to himself behind her receding back. His eyes were filled with pity, compassion, and contempt.

 

 

 

 

 

+++

 

 

 

 

 

 

“To come to a place like this…aren’t you overdoing it too much?”

 

 

I’ll try to stop it as much as possible…but since it’s not the Middle Ages these days, information will eventually leak out…

 

I proposed to two people, and this is a place to celebrate that. But the President is here…if this gets out, won’t this person’s political life be ruined?

 

 

“Hmph. It’s not like there’s a re-election like in the United States, so what’s there to regret?”

“Heo heo.”

 

What a carefree person.

 

 

“Anyway, congratulations. To welcome two such beautiful women.”

“To be exact, it’s three. Wives.”

“You’re going to get a lot of public criticism, aren’t you?”

“I don’t care because it doesn’t hurt.”

“That’s like you.”

 

The President talked for a while and then left the venue, saying he had urgent business.

 

 

I thought other people would leave since the main event was already over, but that was my miscalculation. People gave me and the Nunas formal congratulations and then began to socialize with other influential figures.

 

 

People like matchmakers are walking around everywhere, and groups are meeting with groups.

 

 

Quite a few people approached me, but I just responded casually to the men.

 

 

 

 

 

 

“I should have done it one at a time. I’m starting to regret it a little.”

I sat at a table far away with Yuna-ssi and Sora-nuna.

People are eating and walking around on their own even without us. A lively party in itself.

 

 

“Eung? No. There’s no need for that. It’s enough.”

 

 

Sora-nuna blushed and stroked the ring on her ring finger.

 

 

“Actually, it was a bit rushed. Ah~ I should have done this properly, but I’m usually not prepared….”

“It’s okay. You ordered this ring quite a while ago, right?”

 

Yes…the order itself was a long time ago. I just forgot about it.

 

 

“Then it wasn’t rushed. Thank you. For being considerate.”

Yuna-ssi said plainly.

I was reminded of her from our last date.

 

“By the way, it’s unexpected. Our Hannam-dere Yuna making this kind of expression.”

 

 

Sora-nuna, who had a touched expression, made a playful expression.

 

“Ha, Hannam-dere? What….”

“Ehehe. Look at her being shy. Our teacher is so cute.”

 

Sora-nuna pulled on Yuna-ssi’s mochi-like cheeks. Yuna-ssi didn’t give in and pinched Sora-nuna here and there.

 

 

Even so…they seem to be happy. I’m really glad.

 

 

 

 

 

 

“…Huh?”

 

 

I let out a sigh of relief and looked around the venue.

Then I made eye contact with someone.

 

A woman wearing a red dress and her hair up with a hairpin.

She was young, fresh, and exuded healthiness, and she was none other than Lieutenant Colonel Han Sarang.

 

 

Ah….

 

 

But her expression is unusual.

 

 

Before that, why is she here…;; No, who invited her? It’s not like she’d feel good seeing something like this.

 

 

“What? Who are you looking at?”

“Ah…Eun…Lieutenant Colonel-ssi. I just thought she was eating a lot.”

 

 

At Sora-nuna’s question, I quickly turned my gaze away.

There’s Lieutenant Colonel Eun and her gang (?) stuffing their cheeks like hamsters, eating this and that.
