Sakaino Hitomi (Matsui Airi) is a clean-living young woman from a well-heeled family. She is always completely honest with everyone she meets – a fact that sometimes lands her in trouble.

But life for both turns decidedly chaotic when, at a construction site, Sakaino Hitomi meets the dashing, muscular but decidedly rough-around-the edges Manabu (Kasamatsu Sho). She falls for him instantly, despite his much lower level of education, and cannot disguise her feelings for him. Even as she is trying on her wedding dress, she is thinking of Manabu. This encounter has obviously taken its toll on her, and when her fiance tries to kiss her and she refuses, family members begin to sense that something is wrong. As her attraction to Manabu begins to intensify, it looks like the big wedding could be headed for the rocks…

Tired of listening to Yui wail over her dearly departed, Kyoichi Amagi (Mokomichi Hayami) decides he’s had enough. As CEO of Amagi Pharmaceuticals, Kyoichi is used to having people follow his orders, so naturally, he expects Yui to do exactly as he says when he rather cruelly tells her to shut up and go home.
