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

If it weren't for Cheng Qiaobei hearing the whistling wind, he wouldn't believe she was on a business trip.


A fire of inexplicable irritation flared within him, and his words were laced with sarcasm, "Going on a business trip while sick, Mr. Chen truly sets an example for dedication to one's job."


Chen Ningxi responded: "It's alright, just making a living."


Cheng Qiaobei almost laughed out loud in anger. He might believe others when they say it's for making a living, but he absolutely didn't buy that coming from Chen Ningxi given her family background.


"You're making a living; I'm surviving."


Chen Ningxi brushed her wind-tousled hair aside, not in the mood to bicker with him, and asked, "What do you want?"


Cheng Qiaobei's car was parked right outside the entrance to the Danjiang Power Supply Company, with a roll of medical tape placed on the passenger seat.
