Cute but Not Cute
かわいいけどかわいくない
Synopsis
Perfect but lonely CEO Keiichi plays with women while secretary Ibuki secretly loves him for eight years.
Keiichi Hozumi (30) is a perfect man who has been blessed with everything. The company he started is going well, his private life is very fulfilling, and everything in life is as he pleases. Except for one thing: he is extremely lonely. He can't sleep unless he sleeps with a girl, so every night he has a girl wait for him in bed, and the one who cleans up the mess is always his secretary, Ibuki. Keiichi's junior from college, and even now he is looked after by her both in private and public. One day, Keiichi got drunk and suggested a threesome with a girl, and Ibuki was furious! Yes, in fact, Ibuki has been harboring feelings for Keiichi for eight years, and is still in unrequited love. Ibuki's reason, which has been stirred up by the unconscious Keiichi, is finally reaching its limit of patience! A pure love/love seesaw game between a younger, obsessive seme and a selfish princess who plays with women! (Source: Tokyopop)
