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's voice had gone hoarse due to the flu. The doctor prescribed medicine, instructing her to take it daily as directed. After parting ways at the hospital, each went about their own business.


Back at the office, she noticed a box of throat lozenges sitting on her desk.


Chen Ningxi was puzzled when there was a knock on the office door. "Come in," she said.


Wang Qing entered holding a document. "Manager Chen, this is the meal and travel expense form from Sun Xue and me for our training in Zhang'an. It needs your signature."


Chen Ningxi took the form and signed it. Wang Qing noticed the box of medicine on the desk—it looked suspiciously like the one Lu Xingyan accidentally dropped from his pocket earlier that afternoon.


From across the desk, Wang Qing leaned forward to take a closer look. Upon noticing a folded corner of the box, she felt sure of it.


After signing, Chen Ningxi handed the document back to her. "All done."
