After the student Kazuya Kinoshita was left by his girlfriend for someone else, he doesn't know what to do in his loneliness other than to hire a girlfriend via an online platform. But before the meeting takes place, he reproaches himself for the fact that it is wrong to hire a girlfriend. But then the date goes great, Chizuru Mizuhara is nice, is a beauty and is well dressed. However, when Kazuya later sees the reviews of her other customers, who also had a great time with Chizuru, he feels cheated. At first he doesn't even want to rent her again. When he does, he ends up blaming her about her job. Chizuru is angry because Kazuya is damaging her reputation. Then the student is called to his grandmother, who is in the hospital. Chizuru accompanies him to the hospital and is promptly introduced to the surprised family as a new friend. But since he can't rent her forever, Kazuya has to tell them about a breakup soon.
