The old master and the madam of the prestigious Kuze household couldn't have any children, so they went to England, where the master's brother lived, to adopt their nephew and bring him back as their step-son. However, the new young master, mixed blood honey-haired Lan, isn't welcome in the best of ways, as everyone is prejudiced against his looks. The only one who approaches him is the maid Chitose, who was asked to take care of him. Not only she does her job diligently, even though she's clumsy, but she's genuinely determined to become friends with the young master and she actually thinks that his hair colour and eyes are beautiful. Note: 3 Volumes (Hiatus)
