In the quiet office late at night, Bai Huaiyu sat silently in front of her computer, focused on her work. Outside the office window, neon lights flickered, adding a dreamlike quality to the bustling city. Bai Huaiyu's face showed a hint of fatigue, but her gaze remained determined and concentrated.
Suddenly, the office door gently opened, and Jiang NanJin appeared in the doorway. He was dressed casually, exuding an effortless charm. His eyes sparkled in the dim light, and a complex expression crossed his face.
"Good evening, Bai Huaiyu," Jiang NanJin's voice sounded particularly clear in the quiet office.
Bai Huaiyu looked up and saw Jiang NanJin, a hint of surprise appearing on his face. "Oh, Jiang NanJin, what are you doing here?"
Jiang NanJin walked in and sat in the chair opposite her, a bitter smile on his lips. "I want to talk to you about the misunderstandings between us."
Bai Huaiyu nodded, her heart racing, but she tried to maintain her composure. "Alright, let's talk." Her voice trembled slightly, revealing her inner tension.
Jiang NanJin's gaze was deep as he looked at Bai Huaiyu, his tone serious and sincere. "I know there have been some unpleasant moments between us lately, and I want to say I'm sorry. I've realized that sometimes I can be too stubborn and haven't listened to your thoughts properly." There was a hint of vulnerability in his eyes, something rarely seen in his usually confident and somewhat sharp-tongued demeanor.
Bai Huaiyu listened to Jiang NanJin's words, feeling a stir in her heart. She slightly lowered her eyes and softly said, "I also have my faults; I should have been more proactive in communicating with you instead of avoiding it." Her voice carried a sense of self-reflection, and the corners of her eyes trembled slightly, revealing her inner unease and determination.
The conversation between the two was filled with sincerity and reflection. Jiang NanJin gazed deeply at Bai Huaiyu, his expression gradually softening, a faint smile appearing at the corners of his mouth. "You know, I often use sharp words to mask my uncertainty."
Bai Huaiyu gently nodded, a hint of understanding reflected in her smile. "I know, Jiang NanJin. We all have our imperfections, but we can work together to become better."
Jiang NanJin's attitude softened considerably, and there was a hint of apology in his eyes. "Bai Huaiyu, I hope we can start over and no longer let misunderstandings affect us."
Bai Huaiyu looked up at him, her eyes shimmering with a faint light. "I hope so too. We can take our time and rebuild our relationship step by step." Her voice was filled with determination.
Jiang NanJin stood up and smiled slightly, "Then I'll take my leave. See you tomorrow." His smile carried a hint of ease and relief, as if he had shed a long-held burden.
Bai Huaiyu nodded and walked him to the door, "See you tomorrow."
Watching Jiang NanJin's figure disappear outside the door, Bai Huaiyu felt a deep sense of emotion. This was just the first step of a new beginning, but at least they had taken that step. She let out a gentle sigh, feeling a weight lifted from her heart.
Bai Huaiyu closed the office door and returned to her seat. She reopened her computer and continued to handle the tasks at hand. Her mood gradually calmed down as she focused intently on her work.
However, the words left in her heart by Jiang NanJin and that fragile expression made it difficult for her to calm down immediately. Her fingers lightly tapped on the keyboard, but she found herself making typos over and over again, causing her to chuckle. These little mistakes made her realize that her thoughts were still lingering on Jiang NanJin's words.
Suddenly, her phone rang. It was a message from Jiang NanJin: "After I leave, you won't start daydreaming again, will you? Focus, you little fool." His usual sharp tongue and lazy tone, even through text, were enough for Bai Huaiyu to feel.
Bai Huaiyu replied with a smile, "I'm not stupid; I'm just a bit distracted." Her optimism and positive attitude never let Jiang NanJin's sharp tongue truly defeat her. She looked at her phone screen, her lips curling up, and a mischievous sparkle in her eyes.
She returned to her work, fully focused. But soon, her phone buzzed again. This time, it was a selfie from Jiang NanJin, his face showing displeasure. "Look at this face and try to concentrate," he said. The slight curve of his lips unintentionally revealed his playful mood.
Bai Huaiyu couldn't help but laugh and replied, "Haha, that face of yours only distracts me more!" Her response was filled with ease and joy. Looking at Jiang NanJin's expression in the selfie, she couldn't help but feel that he had a different charm in moments like this.
However, when she turned her gaze back to the computer screen, a hint of tension crept in. Her work required precision, and any small mistake was unacceptable. She took a deep breath, reminding herself to stay focused. Her expression became resolute again as her fingers struck a smooth rhythm on the keyboard.
Although she had the company and care of Jiang NanJin, she still needed to focus on her work. She was now full of motivation and determined to do her best at work.
After a while, she finally finished the work at hand. She stretched and decided to take a break. Her eyes fell on a corner of the office, where a small plant given to her by Jiang NanJin was placed. She walked over and gently touched its leaves, thinking to herself that just like this plant needed careful nurturing, her relationship with Jiang NanJin also required patience and effort.
Her thoughts wandered among the gentle green leaves, smiling softly. This simple gift, like a symbol of their relationship, requires time and patience to cultivate and maintain.
Just as she was immersed in this warmth, her phone rang again. It was a message from Jiang NanJin: "Don't just focus on looking at those leaves, Xiaobaiyu, have you finished your work? Don't forget, you still owe me a report." His words revealed his somewhat ambiguous attitude, with a hint of guidance and a touch of his solitary and hard-to-approach personality.
Bai Huaiyu replied, "The report will be ready soon, no need for you to worry. You're just a busybody!" Her words were playful and affectionate, showcasing her friendly and easygoing nature.
During the process of completing the report, Bai Huaiyu felt a twinge of self-doubt. The professionalism required for the report was extremely high, and she couldn't help but worry whether her work would meet Jiang NanJin's standards, especially since he had offered quite a few critical comments on her work. However, she quickly shook her head, dispelling those doubts. She knew she had to be confident and not let self-doubt hold her back.
She took a deep breath and focused intently on her work. Her fingers danced across the keyboard, creating a smooth rhythm. Occasionally, she glanced out at the neon lights outside, their flickering glow bringing her a spark of inspiration and energy.
At that moment, Bai Huaiyu's phone rang; it was a message from Jiang NanJin: "How's your report coming along? Don't tell me you're still daydreaming." His words carried a lighthearted joke but also revealed his concern for her progress.
Bai Huaiyu replied, "The report is progressing very well, thank you for your concern. I won't let you down." Her response revealed a hint of determination.
Jiang NanJin messaged back, "Hmm, I believe in you. Keep it up, don't make me look down on you." Although his words carried a touch of sarcasm, Bai Huaiyu knew this was his unique way of encouragement.
Bai Huaiyu looked at her phone and smiled slightly, feeling much more relaxed. No matter how sharp-tongued Jiang NanJin was, he was actually showing his concern and support for her in his own way. This brought her a sense of warmth and courage.
Refocusing her attention, Bai Huaiyu continued to immerse herself in writing the report, no longer hesitating. As time passed, her report gradually took shape; she knew it would be a masterpiece that not only met Jiang NanJin's standards but also exceeded her own expectations.
Finally, in the late night, she completed the report, feeling a wave of exhaustion but also satisfaction. She was about to shut down her computer when Jiang NanJin sent another message: "Finally done? I’ve seen you nearly worn out these past few days. Don’t push yourself too hard; sometimes it’s necessary to relax a bit."
Bai Huaiyu smiled, feeling Jiang NanJin's rare concern. She replied, "Thank you, Jiang NanJin. I understand and will make sure to rest. You too, don’t always be so sharp-tongued."
She shut down the computer, stood up, and stretched lazily. She looked at the night view outside the window, filled with anticipation for the future. She knew that her relationship with Jiang NanJin was like this city, full of light and color, sometimes complex and difficult, but as long as she remained optimistic and positive, they could walk through this together.
Before leaving the office, she looked at the potted plant again, smiled and said, "Let's do our best together." Then she closed the door, gently walked out of the quiet office, and entered the bustling city in the night.
