The manga began as a one-shot that debuted on Hakusensha's Hana Yume Ai digital magazine in 2018, and the launch will include that original one-shot. It follows Nagi, daughter of the Katabiranotsuji family, who tells a suitor at an arranged marriage meeting that she wants to visit his house.
The one-shot ran in Hana Yume Ai in 2018, and Melody will reprint it alongside the first serialized chapter. The story turns on Nagi's sudden request to visit her prospective husband's home and what she actually wants from it.
Umino's other serializations sit elsewhere: The Full-Time Wife Escapist ran in Kodansha's Kiss from November 2012 to February 2020 and won the shojo category of the 39th Kodansha Awards, while Chloe et Emma launched in Kiss in August 2022 and reached its fifth volume on August 12.
