as you can see the window and the sky looks too saturated and makes the scene looks fake,but i don’t know how to adjust it.  
this is the world node ![%E8%A8%BB%E8%A7%A3%202019-09-18%20091208](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/c/1/2/c12d92b7e5b3798661eae24626c9306d288118a1.jpeg)  
if you have any tips or suggestions , please leave them in the comment, i will be very appreciate.

You can use the light path node to replace what hdri the camera sees:

 ![lightpath%20hdri%20swap](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/4/9/8/498b45cf74885da0890eebc07c99d75b8f8632cf.jpeg)

This setup will make any background shader that’s in the second slot of the mix shader what the camera sees. This will also allow you to use a completely different image from what is seen by the camera to light the scene.
