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

He Yunyi didn't expect to be intercepted on the very first shot. His pride was hurt, and he didn't even bend down to pick up the shuttlecock. Instead, he flicked it up with his racket and hit it toward the other side of the net.


The two went back and forth, with He Yunyi running all over the court trying to keep up with Cheng Qiaobei. But since Chen Ningxi was present, he kept going despite being out of breath.


At this moment, no one was paying attention to the score. Everyone was focused on how long He Yunyi could keep it up.


Chen Ningxi knew He Yunyi well; back in school, he was always particularly competitive. Now, being thrashed in front of everyone and having to chase down shots all over the court, there was no way he would swallow this indignity or admit defeat.


Just as He Yunyi dove again to save a shot, he fell hard to the ground, and the shuttle landed inbounds.


Chen Ningxi, suppressing pain, quickly got up and asked with concern, "He Yunyi, are you okay? Stop playing."
