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 the howling wind that Cheng Qiaobei could hear, he wouldn't have believed she went on a business trip. He felt an inexplicable surge of irritation and naturally spoke with a sharp edge, "Going on a business trip while sick, Mr. Chen truly is a model of dedication to one's work."


Chen Ningxi replied, "Not really, just for the sake of life."


Cheng Qiaobei almost laughed in anger. He might believe someone else was doing it for life, but he wouldn't believe it for a moment given Chen Ningxi's family background.


"You work for your life, I work for my survival."


Chen Ningxi brushed away her windblown hair, having no interest in bickering with him, and asked, "Why are you looking for me?"


Cheng Qiaobei's car was parked at the gate of Danjiang Power Supply Company, and there was a roll of medical adhesive tape on the passenger seat.


"Nothing important, the project is completed, just wanted to ask if we still need someone from the power company to come check it."
