A solution to this problem is not unique. If $f_1(x)$ and $f_2(x)$ are functions describing your lines, then for example $g(x)=-\frac{1}{\alpha}\log\left(e^{-\alpha f_1(x)}+e^{-\alpha f_2(x)}\right)$ would be a smooth curve below both lines with given asymptotes for any $\alpha>0$, as in your figure.
