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

Knocking on the door to Cheng Qiaobei's office, Wei Lai reported, "Manager Cheng, the meeting is arranged in the T3 administrative meeting room. Do you have any requirements for the tea service?"


Jiang Wanyi favors flower tea, but Cheng Qiaobei did not give any specific instructions for her.


"No special requirements, just the usual reception. Notify them to come to the meeting room in ten minutes."


Wei Lai opened her mouth, seeming to hesitate to speak, and Cheng Qiaobei asked, "Is there something else?"


She had been at Cheng Qiaobei's side the longest and knew quite a bit about his past. Their relationship was both that of a mentor and a friend, so there was nothing to hide.


Wei Lai inquired, "Does Chen Ningxi know about her?"


Cheng Qiaobei twirled the pen in his hand, eyes lowered, and said, "She knows. I have nothing to hide from her."


Frank men like Cheng Qiaobei were rarities, at least such men were rare around Wei Lai.
