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

Chen Ningxi was no fool to believe Cheng Qiaobei's nonsense. But knowing Liang Lei's personality, once she learned it was Cheng Qiaobei, she would definitely extend a formal invitation. She just never expected that Cheng Qiaobei would actually accept.


Some people at the card table just don't play by the rules. If you take them seriously, you lose.


Liang Lei called over a waiter to bring another set of utensils, handed the condiment box to Cheng Qiaobei, and asked him,  


"Why haven't you been to the climbing club lately?"


Cheng Qiaobei reached out for the condiment box, but from where he was sitting, it was inconvenient. Chen Ningxi casually handed it over.


Cheng Qiaobei seemed to be looking at Liang Lei, but he naturally accepted the condiment box from Chen Ningxi with his peripheral vision, and replied,  


"I've been busy with work lately. I can't find the time."


Only then did Liang Lei ask where he worked.
