The Morandi color palette refers to colors with low saturation and a muted, smoky feel.
Chen Ningxi, who usually seems untouched by worldly concerns, finds herself unexpectedly moved upon meeting Cheng Qiaobei, who embodies the Morandi hues.
At their first meeting, Cheng Qiaobei is in a subordinate position, striving to meet the demands of Chen Ningxi’s client role.
Three days later, they meet again when Cheng Qiaobei is inspecting a hotel and Chen Ningxi, a VIP client, calls to make a complaint that goes directly to his office.
Two weeks later, a newly built chain hotel urgently requires electric equipment installation approval, and the responsible person is Chen Ningxi.
Cheng Qiaobei visits her for negotiations but gets caught in the middle of Chen Ningxi’s blind date, and weighing his options, he lets himself be used as a temporary shield to deflect the matchmaker.
With a glance, they fulfill each other's needs—he gets the approval, and she avoids matchmaking.
In the charade of their fake relationship, they end up truly connecting. He gets drunk, she listens earnestly; he's busy, she remains focused on her work.
He does not intrude on her, and she does not disturb him. Chen Ningxi realizes she might have found someone easy to get along with and never tires of.
Regarding love, Chen Ningxi has the ability to both love deeply and restrain herself. In terms of career, Cheng Qiaobei has the capability to conjure miracles and rise again from setbacks.
As for them, they are a couple wandering within the hues of the Morandi palette.

Fated Love With the Billionaire

After obtaining the approval procedures, Cheng Qiaobei spent his days shuttling between the construction site and his residence, thus, contact with Chen Ningxi also waned.


Not until the completion of the project, when it was time for the electric power department to send someone for inspection, did Cheng Qiaobei gaze at the engineering vehicle parked at the hotel entrance, actually hoping that Chen Ningxi would emerge from within. Instead, three or four burly men stepped out.


After the inspection was deemed satisfactory and escorting the inspectors to the entrance, Cheng Qiaobei nonchalantly inquired: "Has Mr. Chen been busy recently?"


One of the inspectors replied: "We're from two different departments; she works in the office while we do field maintenance and inspections, so we don't see each other often. But, she must be quite busy; that position doesn't allow for leisure. Huh? You know our Mr. Chen?"


Cheng Qiaobei smiled, "We've met, but I wouldn't say we're very familiar."
