After her childhood friend, Jin, confessed his feelings for her, Chako tells him she and Isshin understand their feelings for each other. However, Chako realizes she hasn't received a proper answer to her confession… Isshin's texts are blunt, and he doesn't come back on weekends. On top of that, the fact his ex, Hikari, is around him bothers her, and finally Chako cannot stand it anymore! Chako goes to Shizuoka with Futaba in anger, and what she saw there was Isshin devoted to his work…

To share Isshin's delicious tea with the world, Chako snapped up the collaboration offer from a wedding company. But the company went bankrupt and ran away! The tea farm in financial difficulties now has a bigger debt. Chako cares about Isshin so much that she went out of control, and blamed herself. What did Isshin do for her then…? And who's the mysterious pretty woman who suddenly appeared?! What's her intentions?!

Somehow Chako ended up as a fake couple with a mysterious man called Isshin, who works for her family's tea farm. To save their struggling tea farm, the lie mustn't be revealed... However, this fake couple keeps facing challenges one after another, such as a TV interview, a hot spring stay, and a wedding project! At first, Chako was annoyed by blunt and cold Isshin, but she's getting drawn to him as she notices how passionate he is about tea making... Also, you can't forget about the matured four-year-old girl, Futaba! It's a tricky love story between the stubborn adults living under the same roof. The long-awaited second volume is now out!

Chako Hananoki thought she’d found happiness in a handsome fiancé, but when she realized a marriage to him would mean a total erasure of herself, she broke it off and moved back into her childhood home in the country—only to find a strange man and young woman living there? She finds a way to coexist with them, but when her stalker fiancé follows her home, she declares to him (and accidentally to the whole village as well) that this new man in her life is her husband?! A dramatic fake-marriage, found-family story for the ages, by the illustrator of the Ossan’s Love manga adaptation!

Roa, a popular live streamer who views Isshin's bottled tea, Chako, as a rival, lost control, and Hananoki-en faced backlash! On top of that, they now have to compete with Roa, who is also a tea maker, in a national competition. They began intensive training for the must-win battle because if they lose, they will be exposed as a fake couple! However, the Sayama tea team-Isshin, Jin, and Yabuki-is out of order. Can Chako handle the situation as a good “wife” in this fake married couple's crisis?! Despite being under fire, Chako and Isshin are attending a Japanese tea festival in Fukuoka. How exciting that they are spending the night, just the two of them, for the first time! What awaits them in Fukuoka?!

Who will come to her rescue, Jin or Isshin?! Also, Isshin makes great progress in his work at Shinomiya-en! Their long-distance marriage is nearing its climax!

At first, Chako and Isshin had no choice but to fake a marriage... But finally, they confirmed their feelings for each other and kissed on the night of the summer festival! On the next day, Isshin leaves for Shizuoka alone. The person who waits for him at a major beverage company, Shinomiya-en, is his ex, Hikari. And there are super unique guys, too...?! On the other hand, Chako is in charge of managing Hananoki-en and tackling the hard work at their farm, but she's enjoying herself. That's when Jin finds out about their big secret...?!
