How should a couple be like?
It changes with time.
But what remains unchanged is that it's complicated and troublesome.
And there is this unique couple who are bounded by a contract.
Are you okay?
Wait!
No way, no way.
- I'm the winner.
- What?
- I've had enough.
- Don't go.
Yes?
I need to clean up the dishes.
You can do that tomorrow.

Cut!
Okay, thanks for the hard work.
Are we going to continue doing this for the remaining 300 plus days?
It's hell indeed.
Both of you look good together.
You don't need to feel awkward in front of me.
I'm not good at showing my affections in front of others.
Me, too.
But I've seen Togo being lovey-dovey with many women.
Hachi, are you saying it now?
We are still newly-weds.
Oh no, I'm feeling very jealous now.
I feel like crying.
What are you talking about? You are the best.
I need to go back to do some editing. Bye then.
See you.
Where is that?
That?
What do you think you are doing?
Ah! I'm sorry.
But next time, you have to take your own video.
- Okay.
- I'm really going now.
See you.
- Go away.
- I should be the one saying that.
It's not easy
to have such a secret relationship.
[Kissing the Ring Finger]
[Episode 2]
Let's welcome Togo Nitta aka King
who appeared in the popular reality show, Battler,
and his chosen one,
Ayaka Nitta!
Recently, many people do not wish to get married.
Since the peak of 1,099,984 marriages in 1972,
it started to fluctuate throughout the years.
And due to the influence of Covid-19, there were less than 500,000 marriages last year,
which is less than half of what was during the peak.
We wish to change this situation.
We want to show the world how wonderful marriage is.
Well, I'm the director of a wedding company after all.
After getting married, can I say something that I felt is really a plus point to my life?
- It's money.
- Hey.
Have you heard about the event feedback?
I heard that it was very well-received.
I'm happy that Togo is able to have such a wonderful wife.
I want to ask about something
Is it about your mother's 88th birthday celebration?
Yes.
My mother was unable to attend the wedding ceremony,
so it's going to be the first time she's meeting Ayaka.
I wonder if it would be alright.
If something were to go wrong, Togo would lose his stand.
You don't need to worry about that.
I'm sure
things will turn out fine.
I hope so.
How about yours?
How is it?
It looks so soft.
What about you?
Don't do that.
- Bye-bye.
- Bye-bye.
- Finally it's done.
- Send the video to Hachi.
Okay, no problem.
Use the back door when you go home.
Yes.
[Sending]
Ayaka, thank you.
Don't do that.
Ah?!
You gave me such a shock. Make some noise when you come.
I'm sorry.
That's quite a lot of orders.
Right? I think our business is picking up.
That's great.
All thanks to King.
Meat, we want meat!
- Sukiyaki?
- It looks so delicious.
I'll go wash my hands and get ready to eat.
Okay.
Come over here.
Did you use the wedding money for this?
What is this sum of money?
I know that I've passed you a sum of money,
but do you need to use it for sukiyaki?
Don't worry. I've only used a little.
A little?
You are still as stingy as always.
By the way, how long are you going to stay here? It's been some time after your wedding.
In order for us to live together, my husband is doing a renovation to the house.
- Renovation?
- Wait.
Ayaka, did you call Togo "my husband" just now? That's not very nice of you.
That's right. You should call him "my dear".
Since we got such a huge sum of money from him.
No way I'll call him that.
Normally, the wife's family is always so cheapskate, right?
Really.
Well, he has too much money.
I read it in the book, but it seems that married life is only fun in the early stages.
Do you really want me out of the house?
Newly-wed, that brings back memories.
That's right. We did not have the money to have a ceremony,
but I was happy to be able to marry your mother.
Really.
Your father was still slim at that time.
I'm sorry
It's going to be our 30th wedding anniversary soon.
Time really passes in a flash.
My dear, thank you.
Same here, too.
I should be the one to thank you.
I'm hungry.
- We want to eat.
- Let's eat.
Ayaka, sit down.
Faster!
So, let's start eating. Bon appetit!
I want to eat too!
- Give me the big one.
- The big one?
It's been cooked well.
Eat the fishcake, too.
Yummy!
- It's delicious!
- Really?
Can't you see the fishcakes?
They're inside.
- I've been eating them for ages already.
- What?
Let's see.
It's the 30th wedding anniversay for Father and Mother,
so we need to have a celebration this year.
How about a tour? Drink and eat all the way?
Don't be stupid. We don't have the money.
We have a saviour!
Don't say that.
The richer you get, the stingier you become.
- How about a car?
- No.
- How about a new tablet?
- No.
- What about luxurious muscat grapes?
- No.
You have a call.
- It's fine.
- In this materialistic world, how about "help tickets"?
That's so cute.
- Your phone is beeping.
- Don't care about it.
"Help tickets" mean helping out with the daily chores.
I heard that you can't force kids to do housework.
If it were to be something daily, I'm afraid it would not be sustainable.
You're so cute.
You're indeed very cute.
Just answer the call.
Hey, wait.
Yes?
What?
You're so slow.
Pay for my taxi fare if you want me to come fast!
What a miser.
I say
What is Rokkun Roll?
Wow!
Faster!
Okay.
- Have you changed?
- Wait a moment.
Faster!
- Good evening.
- Good evening.
Good evening.
Are you alright?
Yes.
I'm sorry to disturb you at this time of the night.
It's totally fine.
- Ouch!
- Your socks.
Can I come inside?
Of course, please come in.
Thank you.
There wasn't much time before your wedding, so I forgot to pass this to you.
Thank you for marrying into the family.
The Nitta family is very happy about it.
Thank you very much.
I'm sorry that I've not served you tea.
Let me do it.
- What?
- Togo.
Ayaka is trying to do her best.
And I wish to be served by her.
That's right.
I've put my heart into making the tea.
Thank you very much.
Hey, Ayaka. Do you have time?
- What?
- She's not free due to work and the video streaming.
Would you like to accompany me for my hobbies?
- Well
- You don't have time, right?
I want to know you better.
Ayaka, I'll see you tomorrow then.
I'll be looking forward.
Goodnight, and take care on your way back.
Goodnight.
Togo.
The week after next is the 88th birthday celebration.
Do I need to go for the birthday celebration?
What? You don't have to.
- Really?
- You can't even brew tea properly, so it's better not to go.
Well, tea just needs to taste good.
Thank you for what you've done.
Can I ask you something?
What?
If I were to accompany your mother for her hobby,
would I be paid?
Huh? Then you should have rejected her.
If I were to reject her, she might suspect something.
I will do my best to fulfil the contract.
Okay, I know!
Thank you. I'll take my leave then.
Just go away.
I'll help---
Ayaka, let's go.
Wait Excuse me.
If it's fine with you
She's so beautiful. She reminds me of my younger days.
You still are, and you'll always be my most beautiful friend.
You are too kind.
No, I'm telling you the truth.
So, how is your newly-wed life, Ayaka?
Yes. Yes?
Oh, don't bother. She can't understand a word of English.
Oh no. I wish I could chat
Wait a moment. Oh no
My leg
Are you alright?
I'm fine. Thank you for your concern.
That's dangerous.
Hey, are you okay?
Hey.
- Haneda! Haneda!!
- You are too loud!
Sorry, but I need to be this loud to wake her up.
Haneda!! You have a guest waiting for you!!
She's awake.
Are you okay?
Be careful.
I'm embarrassed to say this, but I'm thinking of having a wedding ceremony.
I'm embarrassed to say this, but I'm thinking of having a wedding ceremony.
It's a great thing, so you don't need to be embarrassed
And it's a present from the children.
There are many people who did not have a ceremony.
My parents did not have one, too.
The Queen is blessed to have such a spectacular wedding by the King.
I saw the video, and it was wonderful.
That's true.
- Don't call me Queen anymore.
- What?
I'm here.
Here you go.
And I heard from Hachi about the 88th birthday celebration.
It's the birthday of your grandmother who could not attend the wedding.
Don't I need to be there?
It's not just your presence that's required.
My family is different from yours.
L' olio d'oliva e un olio magico.
(Olive oil is magical.)
Aren't you putting too much?
Don't worry, because it's magical.
I also made soup. Do you want to try some?
It's hot.
- It's hot!
- Are you joking now?
You look cute when you are blowing it.
You!
I'm sorry, but I can't take it anymore.
Cut. Let's take a break.
Why?
It's too good.
- What is too good?
- Both of you are just acting, right?
It's a contractual marriage, right?
- What are you talking about?
- Actually
I was editing the video, but I saw this instead.
Don't do that.
Can I get paid for the kiss?
- Yes, it's 3,000 yen.
- What?
- Do I need to pay 10,000 yen for a peck on the cheek?
- What a miser.
I should be the one to decide the price.
Shall we get a lawyer to decide this?
Lawyer? This contractual marriage is really troublesome.
Did you forget to turn it off?
Maybe. I'm sorry about it.
What are you doing? Do you know the consequences if this is leaked out?
My plan will all go to waste!
You should not blame her. I'm sorry, Ayaka.
What do you need to apologize to her? She should be the one to apologize.
- I've already said sorry.
- I couldn't hear it.
- Because you interrupted
- This is a marriage based on merits.
Instead of being forced by my parents into a marriage,
even if there's no love, I wanted to marry someone who could benefit the company.
Someone who could bring in the profits!
If it were to end like this, wouldn't I be just paying a huge sum of money to a stupid and poor woman?
Ah, this is a mistake in my life.
If not, there's no chance that I would marry such a woman.
I didn't say anything when I went around places with your mother.
In return of my sincerity, I get this from you, Sir.
This is moral harassment.
It's better for you to quit as his secretary.
I better quit, too. It's not too late to start my life over again.
I was wrong with this marriage. Let's divorce.
Huh?! You are still under the contract
Hachi.
Don't tell anyone about this.
Not to even a soul.
I know.
I've bet everything on this.
But didn't you go overboard just now?
I got married for my business, and you did it for your family.
Don't you want to treat your family properly?
[Wedding contract]
[Contract fees: 10 million yen]
[For 365 days of married life, video streaming is to be done daily.]
- Let's eat.
- Bon appetit!
Let's eat.
- Take the soy sauce.
- Over here.
That's salt.
I have something to say.
Don't tell me it's about our wedding anniversary?
Yes.
I don't need any presents.
Yes, it's not necessary.
I want to eat sukiyaki again!
I only ate a piece of meat the other time.
Then you did eat it.
Don't argue. Let's eat.
That's enough, Fuka.
[Haneda's Fishcakes]
[Togo Nitta]
Did you quarrel with Togo?
Huh? It's not what you think.
Hello.
Don't you have a spare key?
- Riku?
- What's up?
- Ah
- I want to see your luxurious mansion.
- Wait.
- It should be fine.
Can I come inside?
Don't do that.
Wow! What a great place!
I've seen this in the Battler.
The sofa is so soft.
- So, which part of the house did you renovate?
- Hmm?
It's the bedroom, right?
Yes, it's the bedroom.
Show me, since it's newly renovated.
Can I take a look, please?
Don't tell me this is the sauna shown in the Battler?
Yes, it is.
This is really wonderful.
Sis, this house is fantastic.
I also wish to stay here.
Since the renovation is done, does it mean that you will live together?
Yes, soon.
Please bring my sis here soon. Our house is too small.
Well, there is still a lot to clear up.
I've been thinking if both of you are really married.
You don't live together,
and you said that you won't choose someone of a different family background.
I saw you talking about your type, King.
A person who's clean, educated and gentle.
And then serious and someone who listens to you, right?
Then, my sis is impossible
I love your sister.
- That's creepy.
- Creepy?
But please take good care of my sis.
Fine.
He's a sharp boy.
Why did you call me here?
That's because
Sir, it's better for you to learn how to apologize.
It's basic manners. When you do something wrong, you apologize.
Then, you should be the one to say sorry first.
- Huh?
- It's fine for me to get a divorce.
But 100,000 people have to accept it, too.
100,000 people?
There are more than 100,000 people who acknowledge us a married couple.
- No, please.
- What are you doing?
There's also a great responsibility to bear for our family.
When we entered the agreement, we already made the decision to lead this life.
The flowers need to face you.
Noted.
That's right. I'm looking forward to this Sunday.
Sunday?
It's my mother's 88th birthday celebration.
You don't have to come, since you can't even brew tea properly.
My mother is also looking forward to meet you, Ayaka.
Sorry that I'm late.
- Don't worry.
- Thank you.
I'll do that for you.
Thanks, but you don't need to.
Let's share the workload.
Please send this data to my email.
She's flaunting her appeal in work again.
But I think it doesn't work on Takemoto.
Even if she's late, nobody says anything because she's the President's wife.
I was informed that Haneda was accompanying the President's mother.
She's not lazing on her job.
So shall it be.
I'll look forward to it from tomorrow.
If you've taken a bet with this marriage, you should not get angry like before.
But she's really a little too late.
I'm sorry!
It's supposed to be a live streaming.
I'm sorry, because I needed to clear my work.
You can just ask the other staff to do the work.
I'm sorry.
We can just take the next ferry.
Thank you very much.
Then, I'll go get the car.
Okay.
Today, you went for ikebana, right?
Yes, my legs were cramped from the kneeling.
I see.
Well
How should I say it
Sorry.
[Haneda's Fishcakes]
Be careful.
Are you okay?
I'm sorry that you had to bring her back.
Thank you very much.
I'll take my leave then.
Eh?
Well
Do you have something to say?
Well
Damn.
Why aren't you both living together? Did you both quarrel? Is something wrong?
Why aren't you both living together? Did you both quarrel? Is something wrong?
Do you think that we know nothing?
I know Ayaka has many shortcomings, but she's good in her own ways, too.
She has no shortcomings!
Of course she has many! She's unfriendly and lazy, and she can't cook!
And her singing is lousy.
Please excuse me.
Togo.
She's really a good girl.
Yes, I know. That's why I married her.
Yes, I know. That's why I married her.
I'm glad to hear that.
Sorry, but let me serve you some tea.
And some fishcakes, too.
I'm leaving, so you don't need to do that.
- Isn't coffee better?
- Coffee?
But we received some really good roasted tea.
- Are you giving him fishcakes?
- Yes, it's ours.
Faster.
A bit more.
[30th wedding anniversary]
I've confirmed the wedding venue. I'll send a quotation as soon as possible.

[Kento Kamiyama]
Isn't he a great person?
You are too naive.
I'll go do my work.
If you don't hurry, we won't be able to make it in time for tomorrow.
- I also want to make this.
- Okay, no problem.
What is this?
Is it a piranha plant?
Sis, come back early tomorrow.
Of course, I will.
It's done!
Is it done? It's better if you open it up a bit more.
Is it done? It's better if you open it up a bit more.
Why is her phone always beeping?
[Togo Nitta]
Haneda, the President is looking for you.
Okay.
He's in the chapel.
[To Dad and Mum]
[Happy 30th Wedding Anniversary!!]
Faster!
[To Dad and Mum]
[Happy 30th Wedding Anniversary!!]
What is this about?
Togo was the one who came up with this.
Father, Mother.
Congratulations!
Congratulations.
Congratulations.
You both look good.
Congratulations.
Congratulations.
Togo, Ayaka, thank you.
Thank you, everybody.
Thank you.
Sis, you should say something.
Father, Mother.
Thank you
for bringing us up.
It's been hard for the both of you,
but we enjoyed each day with you both.
I hope to become a couple like you, too.
Wait
And Sir--
Togo.
Thank you.
Where is Togo's wife?
My apologies, but something came up.
Please wait a little longer.
What happened? Mother is waiting.
Please calm down. She will be here soon.
What are you doing?
Grandma was unable to attend your wedding,
so she's looking forward to it today.
I'm really sorry about it.
Please excuse us. We hope you can wait a while more.
It's unforgiveable to be late.
Today, my wife won't be here--
Please accept my apologies for being late.
Dear guests,
I'm really sorry to be late.
I'm Ayaka, the wife of Togo Nitta.
I might not be a suitable partner
for the heir of Nitta Holdings.
However,
I will work hard to be a good wife to him.
I hope to have your understanding and support.
Ayaka.
Thank you for coming.
Grandma, many happy returns for your birthday.
I was looking forward to meet you today.
Togo, what a good wife you have.
That's right.
You really look good in a kimono.
Everyone, please enjoy the party.
Shall we live together?
What?
Things would be bad if your family finds out, right?
And it would be a problem if anything were to happen when you are travelling by your bicycle.
Well, it might be a good experience to live in a luxurious mansion.
That's true.
Okay.
We will hold hands when we walk on the streets.
Okay.
Let's have a new start from tomorrow.
I'll be looking forward.
Shall we go?
[Haneda's Fishcakes]
I'll get going then.
Don't go.
Don't be like that. We can meet up anytime.
Finally, the house will have more space.
- She's going away, you know.
- Fuka, what about you?
This is a present for you.
Thank you. I'll use it carefully.
Father.
When Ayaka is in a bad mood, you can just calm her down with some alcohol and karaoke.

Sorry.
Why are you saying sorry?

I hope you will find your happiness.
Yes.
- Bye-bye.
- Bye-bye.
Be happy!
Bye-bye.
Don't look back.
Negi!
Negi.
This is your room.
What? Do I get to stay here by myself?
You don't want to sleep together, right?
After you clear up, I'll put the bed in.
Okay.
Negi!
OOI!!
This room is crazy. He's really a particular person.

She's not a dog. Her name is Negi.
I'm Negi. I'm Negi.
She's a dog!
This is how a marriage with merits looks like to Sis.
It's the start of their story as a couple.
Shall I sing? If I can get 50,000 yen for this.
Don't be ridiculous.
Sorry for intruding.
Sayo!
Are you real?
Are you really real?
I know you are moving in, but Sayo wanted to meet Ayaka.
Because you have not arranged a meeting.
Ayaka, she's my fiancee, Sayo Okada.
Nice to meet you. I'm Sayo Okada. I've been watching your streaming.
Nice to meet you. I'm Sayo Okada. I've been watching your streaming.
Thank you.
I like your ASMR videos, so I brought this for you.
Thank you so much. Wah! That's a lot.
Thank you so much. Wah! That's a lot.
Oh, I feel like drinking this immediately.
You didn't tell Sayo anything, right?
Of course not.
Togo, you must be a happy man.
See, he's feeling shy.
I'm not.
We were high school classmates.
I'll keep these.
You are really cute!
Oh no, it's burnt.
Don't worry. They end up in the stomach anyway.
Really?
- Don't drop them.
- Why?
Don't say that.
Real love is different indeed.
No matter how much you benefit from it,
Food is ready.
it doesn't satisfy the heart.
Sorry to disturb.
We are closed for the day.
Sorry, but the person-in-charge is on leave this week.
Then, how about next Tuesday?
Okay, no problem.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
[Haneda]
Hey, don't let the dog come over here.
I told you she's not a dog. Her name is Negi.
Don't come here.
He's a bad man, right? Come here!
He's a bad man, right? Come here!
Goodnight.
Goodnight.
Finally, they started to live together.
Even though there's no love between them, they will create memories together.

It's impossible to do it today.
It will do, so just stop eating.
This is really delicious. It's from Sayo. Do you want some?

No.
I like Sayo. You are good friends with her, right?
I like Sayo. You are good friends with her, right?
[Next Episode]
- Honeymoon?
- My parents asked us to have a baby.
Baby? No way!
I'm worried that there have been bad rumours about them going around.
I know that you like Sayo, so you married Ayaka, right?
- Long time no see.
- Kamiyama?
How should a couple be like?
It changes with time.
But what remains unchanged is that it's complicated and troublesome.
And there is this unique couple who are bounded by a contract.
Are you okay?
Wait!
No way, no way.
- I'm the winner.
- What?
- I've had enough.
- Don't go.
Yes?
I need to clean up the dishes.
You can do that tomorrow.

Cut!
Okay, thanks for the hard work.
Are we going to continue doing this for the remaining 300 plus days?
It's hell indeed.
Both of you look good together.
You don't need to feel awkward in front of me.
I'm not good at showing my affections in front of others.
Me, too.
But I've seen Togo being lovey-dovey with many women.
Hachi, are you saying it now?
We are still newly-weds.
Oh no, I'm feeling very jealous now.
I feel like crying.
What are you talking about? You are the best.
I need to go back to do some editing. Bye then.
See you.
Where is that?
That?
What do you think you are doing?
Ah! I'm sorry.
But next time, you have to take your own video.
- Okay.
- I'm really going now.
See you.
- Go away.
- I should be the one saying that.
It's not easy
to have such a secret relationship.
[Kissing the Ring Finger]
[Episode 2]
Let's welcome Togo Nitta aka King
who appeared in the popular reality show, Battler,
and his chosen one,
Ayaka Nitta!
Recently, many people do not wish to get married.
Since the peak of 1,099,984 marriages in 1972,
it started to fluctuate throughout the years.
And due to the influence of Covid-19, there were less than 500,000 marriages last year,
which is less than half of what was during the peak.
We wish to change this situation.
We want to show the world how wonderful marriage is.
Well, I'm the director of a wedding company after all.
After getting married, can I say something that I felt is really a plus point to my life?
- It's money.
- Hey.
Have you heard about the event feedback?
I heard that it was very well-received.
I'm happy that Togo is able to have such a wonderful wife.
I want to ask about something
Is it about your mother's 88th birthday celebration?
Yes.
My mother was unable to attend the wedding ceremony,
so it's going to be the first time she's meeting Ayaka.
I wonder if it would be alright.
If something were to go wrong, Togo would lose his stand.
You don't need to worry about that.
I'm sure
things will turn out fine.
I hope so.
How about yours?
How is it?
It looks so soft.
What about you?
Don't do that.
- Bye-bye.
- Bye-bye.
- Finally it's done.
- Send the video to Hachi.
Okay, no problem.
Use the back door when you go home.
Yes.
[Sending]
Ayaka, thank you.
Don't do that.
Ah?!
You gave me such a shock. Make some noise when you come.
I'm sorry.
That's quite a lot of orders.
Right? I think our business is picking up.
That's great.
All thanks to King.
Meat, we want meat!
- Sukiyaki?
- It looks so delicious.
I'll go wash my hands and get ready to eat.
Okay.
Come over here.
Did you use the wedding money for this?
What is this sum of money?
I know that I've passed you a sum of money,
but do you need to use it for sukiyaki?
Don't worry. I've only used a little.
A little?
You are still as stingy as always.
By the way, how long are you going to stay here? It's been some time after your wedding.
In order for us to live together, my husband is doing a renovation to the house.
- Renovation?
- Wait.
Ayaka, did you call Togo "my husband" just now? That's not very nice of you.
That's right. You should call him "my dear".
Since we got such a huge sum of money from him.
No way I'll call him that.
Normally, the wife's family is always so cheapskate, right?
Really.
Well, he has too much money.
I read it in the book, but it seems that married life is only fun in the early stages.
Do you really want me out of the house?
Newly-wed, that brings back memories.
That's right. We did not have the money to have a ceremony,
but I was happy to be able to marry your mother.
Really.
Your father was still slim at that time.
I'm sorry
It's going to be our 30th wedding anniversary soon.
Time really passes in a flash.
My dear, thank you.
Same here, too.
I should be the one to thank you.
I'm hungry.
- We want to eat.
- Let's eat.
Ayaka, sit down.
Faster!
So, let's start eating. Bon appetit!
I want to eat too!
- Give me the big one.
- The big one?
It's been cooked well.
Eat the fishcake, too.
Yummy!
- It's delicious!
- Really?
Can't you see the fishcakes?
They're inside.
- I've been eating them for ages already.
- What?
Let's see.
It's the 30th wedding anniversay for Father and Mother,
so we need to have a celebration this year.
How about a tour? Drink and eat all the way?
Don't be stupid. We don't have the money.
We have a saviour!
Don't say that.
The richer you get, the stingier you become.
- How about a car?
- No.
- How about a new tablet?
- No.
- What about luxurious muscat grapes?
- No.
You have a call.
- It's fine.
- In this materialistic world, how about "help tickets"?
That's so cute.
- Your phone is beeping.
- Don't care about it.
"Help tickets" mean helping out with the daily chores.
I heard that you can't force kids to do housework.
If it were to be something daily, I'm afraid it would not be sustainable.
You're so cute.
You're indeed very cute.
Just answer the call.
Hey, wait.
Yes?
What?
You're so slow.
Pay for my taxi fare if you want me to come fast!
What a miser.
I say
What is Rokkun Roll?
Wow!
Faster!
Okay.
- Have you changed?
- Wait a moment.
Faster!
- Good evening.
- Good evening.
Good evening.
Are you alright?
Yes.
I'm sorry to disturb you at this time of the night.
It's totally fine.
- Ouch!
- Your socks.
Can I come inside?
Of course, please come in.
Thank you.
There wasn't much time before your wedding, so I forgot to pass this to you.
Thank you for marrying into the family.
The Nitta family is very happy about it.
Thank you very much.
I'm sorry that I've not served you tea.
Let me do it.
- What?
- Togo.
Ayaka is trying to do her best.
And I wish to be served by her.
That's right.
I've put my heart into making the tea.
Thank you very much.
Hey, Ayaka. Do you have time?
- What?
- She's not free due to work and the video streaming.
Would you like to accompany me for my hobbies?
- Well
- You don't have time, right?
I want to know you better.
Ayaka, I'll see you tomorrow then.
I'll be looking forward.
Goodnight, and take care on your way back.
Goodnight.
Togo.
The week after next is the 88th birthday celebration.
Do I need to go for the birthday celebration?
What? You don't have to.
- Really?
- You can't even brew tea properly, so it's better not to go.
Well, tea just needs to taste good.
Thank you for what you've done.
Can I ask you something?
What?
If I were to accompany your mother for her hobby,
would I be paid?
Huh? Then you should have rejected her.
If I were to reject her, she might suspect something.
I will do my best to fulfil the contract.
Okay, I know!
Thank you. I'll take my leave then.
Just go away.
I'll help---
Ayaka, let's go.
Wait Excuse me.
If it's fine with you
She's so beautiful. She reminds me of my younger days.
You still are, and you'll always be my most beautiful friend.
You are too kind.
No, I'm telling you the truth.
So, how is your newly-wed life, Ayaka?
Yes. Yes?
Oh, don't bother. She can't understand a word of English.
Oh no. I wish I could chat
Wait a moment. Oh no
My leg
Are you alright?
I'm fine. Thank you for your concern.
That's dangerous.
Hey, are you okay?
Hey.
- Haneda! Haneda!!
- You are too loud!
Sorry, but I need to be this loud to wake her up.
Haneda!! You have a guest waiting for you!!
She's awake.
Are you okay?
Be careful.
I'm embarrassed to say this, but I'm thinking of having a wedding ceremony.
I'm embarrassed to say this, but I'm thinking of having a wedding ceremony.
It's a great thing, so you don't need to be embarrassed
And it's a present from the children.
There are many people who did not have a ceremony.
My parents did not have one, too.
The Queen is blessed to have such a spectacular wedding by the King.
I saw the video, and it was wonderful.
That's true.
- Don't call me Queen anymore.
- What?
I'm here.
Here you go.
And I heard from Hachi about the 88th birthday celebration.
It's the birthday of your grandmother who could not attend the wedding.
Don't I need to be there?
It's not just your presence that's required.
My family is different from yours.
L' olio d'oliva e un olio magico.
(Olive oil is magical.)
Aren't you putting too much?
Don't worry, because it's magical.
I also made soup. Do you want to try some?
It's hot.
- It's hot!
- Are you joking now?
You look cute when you are blowing it.
You!
I'm sorry, but I can't take it anymore.
Cut. Let's take a break.
Why?
It's too good.
- What is too good?
- Both of you are just acting, right?
It's a contractual marriage, right?
- What are you talking about?
- Actually
I was editing the video, but I saw this instead.
Don't do that.
Can I get paid for the kiss?
- Yes, it's 3,000 yen.
- What?
- Do I need to pay 10,000 yen for a peck on the cheek?
- What a miser.
I should be the one to decide the price.
Shall we get a lawyer to decide this?
Lawyer? This contractual marriage is really troublesome.
Did you forget to turn it off?
Maybe. I'm sorry about it.
What are you doing? Do you know the consequences if this is leaked out?
My plan will all go to waste!
You should not blame her. I'm sorry, Ayaka.
What do you need to apologize to her? She should be the one to apologize.
- I've already said sorry.
- I couldn't hear it.
- Because you interrupted
- This is a marriage based on merits.
Instead of being forced by my parents into a marriage,
even if there's no love, I wanted to marry someone who could benefit the company.
Someone who could bring in the profits!
If it were to end like this, wouldn't I be just paying a huge sum of money to a stupid and poor woman?
Ah, this is a mistake in my life.
If not, there's no chance that I would marry such a woman.
I didn't say anything when I went around places with your mother.
In return of my sincerity, I get this from you, Sir.
This is moral harassment.
It's better for you to quit as his secretary.
I better quit, too. It's not too late to start my life over again.
I was wrong with this marriage. Let's divorce.
Huh?! You are still under the contract
Hachi.
Don't tell anyone about this.
Not to even a soul.
I know.
I've bet everything on this.
But didn't you go overboard just now?
I got married for my business, and you did it for your family.
Don't you want to treat your family properly?
[Wedding contract]
[Contract fees: 10 million yen]
[For 365 days of married life, video streaming is to be done daily.]
- Let's eat.
- Bon appetit!
Let's eat.
- Take the soy sauce.
- Over here.
That's salt.
I have something to say.
Don't tell me it's about our wedding anniversary?
Yes.
I don't need any presents.
Yes, it's not necessary.
I want to eat sukiyaki again!
I only ate a piece of meat the other time.
Then you did eat it.
Don't argue. Let's eat.
That's enough, Fuka.
[Haneda's Fishcakes]
[Togo Nitta]
Did you quarrel with Togo?
Huh? It's not what you think.
Hello.
Don't you have a spare key?
- Riku?
- What's up?
- Ah
- I want to see your luxurious mansion.
- Wait.
- It should be fine.
Can I come inside?
Don't do that.
Wow! What a great place!
I've seen this in the Battler.
The sofa is so soft.
- So, which part of the house did you renovate?
- Hmm?
It's the bedroom, right?
Yes, it's the bedroom.
Show me, since it's newly renovated.
Can I take a look, please?
Don't tell me this is the sauna shown in the Battler?
Yes, it is.
This is really wonderful.
Sis, this house is fantastic.
I also wish to stay here.
Since the renovation is done, does it mean that you will live together?
Yes, soon.
Please bring my sis here soon. Our house is too small.
Well, there is still a lot to clear up.
I've been thinking if both of you are really married.
You don't live together,
and you said that you won't choose someone of a different family background.
I saw you talking about your type, King.
A person who's clean, educated and gentle.
And then serious and someone who listens to you, right?
Then, my sis is impossible
I love your sister.
- That's creepy.
- Creepy?
But please take good care of my sis.
Fine.
He's a sharp boy.
Why did you call me here?
That's because
Sir, it's better for you to learn how to apologize.
It's basic manners. When you do something wrong, you apologize.
Then, you should be the one to say sorry first.
- Huh?
- It's fine for me to get a divorce.
But 100,000 people have to accept it, too.
100,000 people?
There are more than 100,000 people who acknowledge us a married couple.
- No, please.
- What are you doing?
There's also a great responsibility to bear for our family.
When we entered the agreement, we already made the decision to lead this life.
The flowers need to face you.
Noted.
That's right. I'm looking forward to this Sunday.
Sunday?
It's my mother's 88th birthday celebration.
You don't have to come, since you can't even brew tea properly.
My mother is also looking forward to meet you, Ayaka.
Sorry that I'm late.
- Don't worry.
- Thank you.
I'll do that for you.
Thanks, but you don't need to.
Let's share the workload.
Please send this data to my email.
She's flaunting her appeal in work again.
But I think it doesn't work on Takemoto.
Even if she's late, nobody says anything because she's the President's wife.
I was informed that Haneda was accompanying the President's mother.
She's not lazing on her job.
So shall it be.
I'll look forward to it from tomorrow.
If you've taken a bet with this marriage, you should not get angry like before.
But she's really a little too late.
I'm sorry!
It's supposed to be a live streaming.
I'm sorry, because I needed to clear my work.
You can just ask the other staff to do the work.
I'm sorry.
We can just take the next ferry.
Thank you very much.
Then, I'll go get the car.
Okay.
Today, you went for ikebana, right?
Yes, my legs were cramped from the kneeling.
I see.
Well
How should I say it
Sorry.
[Haneda's Fishcakes]
Be careful.
Are you okay?
I'm sorry that you had to bring her back.
Thank you very much.
I'll take my leave then.
Eh?
Well
Do you have something to say?
Well
Damn.
Why aren't you both living together? Did you both quarrel? Is something wrong?
Why aren't you both living together? Did you both quarrel? Is something wrong?
Do you think that we know nothing?
I know Ayaka has many shortcomings, but she's good in her own ways, too.
She has no shortcomings!
Of course she has many! She's unfriendly and lazy, and she can't cook!
And her singing is lousy.
Please excuse me.
Togo.
She's really a good girl.
Yes, I know. That's why I married her.
Yes, I know. That's why I married her.
I'm glad to hear that.
Sorry, but let me serve you some tea.
And some fishcakes, too.
I'm leaving, so you don't need to do that.
- Isn't coffee better?
- Coffee?
But we received some really good roasted tea.
- Are you giving him fishcakes?
- Yes, it's ours.
Faster.
A bit more.
[30th wedding anniversary]
I've confirmed the wedding venue. I'll send a quotation as soon as possible.

[Kento Kamiyama]
Isn't he a great person?
You are too naive.
I'll go do my work.
If you don't hurry, we won't be able to make it in time for tomorrow.
- I also want to make this.
- Okay, no problem.
What is this?
Is it a piranha plant?
Sis, come back early tomorrow.
Of course, I will.
It's done!
Is it done? It's better if you open it up a bit more.
Is it done? It's better if you open it up a bit more.
Why is her phone always beeping?
[Togo Nitta]
Haneda, the President is looking for you.
Okay.
He's in the chapel.
[To Dad and Mum]
[Happy 30th Wedding Anniversary!!]
Faster!
[To Dad and Mum]
[Happy 30th Wedding Anniversary!!]
What is this about?
Togo was the one who came up with this.
Father, Mother.
Congratulations!
Congratulations.
Congratulations.
You both look good.
Congratulations.
Congratulations.
Togo, Ayaka, thank you.
Thank you, everybody.
Thank you.
Sis, you should say something.
Father, Mother.
Thank you
for bringing us up.
It's been hard for the both of you,
but we enjoyed each day with you both.
I hope to become a couple like you, too.
Wait
And Sir--
Togo.
Thank you.
Where is Togo's wife?
My apologies, but something came up.
Please wait a little longer.
What happened? Mother is waiting.
Please calm down. She will be here soon.
What are you doing?
Grandma was unable to attend your wedding,
so she's looking forward to it today.
I'm really sorry about it.
Please excuse us. We hope you can wait a while more.
It's unforgiveable to be late.
Today, my wife won't be here--
Please accept my apologies for being late.
Dear guests,
I'm really sorry to be late.
I'm Ayaka, the wife of Togo Nitta.
I might not be a suitable partner
for the heir of Nitta Holdings.
However,
I will work hard to be a good wife to him.
I hope to have your understanding and support.
Ayaka.
Thank you for coming.
Grandma, many happy returns for your birthday.
I was looking forward to meet you today.
Togo, what a good wife you have.
That's right.
You really look good in a kimono.
Everyone, please enjoy the party.
Shall we live together?
What?
Things would be bad if your family finds out, right?
And it would be a problem if anything were to happen when you are travelling by your bicycle.
Well, it might be a good experience to live in a luxurious mansion.
That's true.
Okay.
We will hold hands when we walk on the streets.
Okay.
Let's have a new start from tomorrow.
I'll be looking forward.
Shall we go?
[Haneda's Fishcakes]
I'll get going then.
Don't go.
Don't be like that. We can meet up anytime.
Finally, the house will have more space.
- She's going away, you know.
- Fuka, what about you?
This is a present for you.
Thank you. I'll use it carefully.
Father.
When Ayaka is in a bad mood, you can just calm her down with some alcohol and karaoke.

Come visit us sometimes.
Sorry.
Why are you saying sorry?
Nothing.
Thank you for bringing me up.
I hope you will find your happiness.
Yes.
- Bye-bye.
- Bye-bye.
Be happy!
Bye-bye.
Don't look back.
Negi!
Negi.
This is your room.
What? Do I get to stay here by myself?
You don't want to sleep together, right?
After you clear up, I'll put the bed in.
Okay.
Negi!
OOI!!
This room is crazy. He's really a particular person.
This room is crazy. He's really a particular person.
Come down! Don't dirty the bed. Don't look at me. Why did you bring the dog here?

The viewing numbers would rocket. Am I right? Negi, Negi, come here.

She's not a dog. Her name is Negi.
I'm Negi. I'm Negi.
She's a dog!
This is how a marriage with merits looks like to Sis.
It's the start of their story as a couple.
Shall I sing? If I can get 50,000 yen for this.
Don't be ridiculous.
Sorry for intruding.
Sayo!
Are you real?
Are you really real?
I know you are moving in, but Sayo wanted to meet Ayaka.
Because you have not arranged a meeting.
Ayaka, she's my fiancee, Sayo Okada.
Nice to meet you. I'm Sayo Okada. I've been watching your streaming.
Nice to meet you. I'm Sayo Okada. I've been watching your streaming.
Thank you.
I like your ASMR videos, so I brought this for you.
Thank you so much. Wah! That's a lot.
Thank you so much. Wah! That's a lot.
Oh, I feel like drinking this immediately.
You didn't tell Sayo anything, right?
Of course not.
Togo, you must be a happy man.
See, he's feeling shy.
I'm not.
We were high school classmates.
I'll keep these.
You are really cute!
Oh no, it's burnt.
Don't worry. They end up in the stomach anyway.
Really?
- Don't drop them.
- Why?
Don't say that.
Real love is different indeed.
No matter how much you benefit from it,
Food is ready.
it doesn't satisfy the heart.
Sorry to disturb.
We are closed for the day.
Sorry, but the person-in-charge is on leave this week.
Then, how about next Tuesday?
Okay, no problem.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
[Haneda]
Hey, don't let the dog come over here.
I told you she's not a dog. Her name is Negi.
Don't come here.
He's a bad man, right? Come here!
He's a bad man, right? Come here!
Goodnight.
Goodnight.
Finally, they started to live together.
Even though there's no love between them, they will create memories together.

[Next Episode]
- Honeymoon?
- My parents asked us to have a baby.
Baby? No way!
I'm worried that there have been bad rumours about them going around.
I know that you like Sayo, so you married Ayaka, right?
- Long time no see.
- Kamiyama?
