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 held her forehead in embarrassment, making a fuss over the phone with Cheng Qiaobei late at night, crying and stomping her feet.


But after disturbing him so late, I had to at least call to apologize. Yet my hand hesitated to dial, fearing another bout of his mockery if he answered. However, issues had to be faced.


Taking a deep breath, Chen Ningxi thought, "Fine, let it be."


She held the phone to her ear, her heartbeat accelerating with the connection tones, which went on for a long time before being answered.


Chen Ningxi licked her dry lips and asked tentatively, "Manager Cheng, you haven't woken up yet?"


Cheng Qiaobei gave a grunt of acknowledgment.


Never in her life had Chen Ningxi done something so embarrassing, she inquired with a forced laugh, "Hehe, sorry for disturbing you so early, Manager Cheng. I wanted to ask if I called you last night?"
