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

People can't listen to or think too much—for when they do, everything starts to feel off.


Zou Yong's words about Cheng Qiaobei, saying it's not about money, made Chen Ningxi feel uneasy.


If she asked, it would only prove her own guilt, but if she didn't, her true curiosity would remain; she wanted to know what kind of person Cheng Qiaobei really was.


She trusted someone she'd known for over a decade more than someone she had met less than a month ago.


It wasn't until the car stopped at the gate of Chen Ningxi's residential complex that Zou Yong let her out.


Before she got out of the car, Zou Yong reminded her, "Ning Xi, take my words to heart."


Chen Ningxi nodded, "Don't worry, Uncle."


Zou Yong's words lingered in her mind like an unshakable haze; Chen Ningxi, sitting on the balcony, brewing tea by the stove, stared blankly into the distant city.
