On the evening of the weekend, as the sky darkened, the publisher's conference room was cleverly transformed into a cozy party space. Under the warm lights, ribbons and balloons added a festive touch, while cheerful music quietly created a pleasant atmosphere. Bai Huaiyu arrived early at the venue, her light purple dress shimmering under the lights, making her look both fresh and elegant. This departure from her usual style made her feel somewhat uneasy, yet it couldn't hide her charm and loveliness. 0
 
When Jiang NanJin appeared at the entrance, his seemingly always relaxed demeanor immediately became the center of attention. He was as casual as ever, wearing a deep blue shirt paired with casual trousers, giving off an effortless yet stylish vibe. His presence intensified the already lively atmosphere. His gaze swept through the crowd and finally landed on Bai Huaiyu, prompting him to chuckle softly as he walked over to her. 0
 
 
"Today's Bai Huaiyu is quite impressive," Jiang NanJin joked, his voice laced with lighthearted teasing. 0
 
Upon hearing this, Bai Huaiyu's cheeks flushed slightly as she awkwardly replied, "I just thought that for such a special occasion, it should be a bit more formal. Do you think I might have gone a bit overboard?" 0
 
 
"Too much? No, I think it suits you very well," Jiang NanJin said seriously, his eyes revealing sincere admiration. 0
 
In this lighthearted and pleasant conversation, the party officially began. 0
 
 
In the soft music of the party, Bai Huaiyu and Jiang NanJin were like the stars of the event, attracting everyone's attention. Bai Huaiyu wore her light purple dress, which shimmered under the lights, and she had a shy smile on her face. Whenever a colleague approached to congratulate her, she would always respond softly, expressing her gratitude. 0
 
Jiang NanJin maintained his usual calm demeanor, his smile carrying a hint of laziness. Whenever someone mentioned his new work, he would always share the credit with Bai Huaiyu, saying, "None of this would have been possible without Bai Huaiyu's hard work; she is the true hero of this success." 0
 
 
Such interactions allowed the colleagues present to feel the deep rapport between them. Many began to gather around, sharing their thoughts and feelings about the comic, and the atmosphere became even more lively. 0
 
In a small circle, a senior colleague raised a glass and said, "Teacher Jiang, Bai Huaiyu, your success is not just a personal honor; it is also a pride for our publishing house. Your hard work and creativity have set an example for all of us, allowing us to witness once again the value of dreams and hard work." 0
 
 
"Yes, your work not only has an exciting story and vivid characters, but more importantly, it carries profound themes and emotions, which is exactly what attracts us," another young colleague added. 0
 
Bai Huaiyu listened to everyone's praise, feeling both touched and a bit shy. She gently said, "Thank you all for your recognition. None of this would be possible without your support and encouragement. We still have a long way to go, and we hope to bring you more and better works in the future." 0
 
 
Jiang NanJin said with a joking tone, "Hearing so many compliments, I feel a bit lightheaded. But don't worry, with Bai Huaiyu around, she will always remind me to stay grounded." 0
 
Seeing that Bai Huaiyu was not really angry, Jiang NanJin continued with even more pride, "Oh, then you surely won't mind if I share the story of how you drank ink as if it were coffee that day?" His eyes sparkled with a teasing light, seemingly searching for Bai Huaiyu's limits. 0
 
 
Hearing this, Bai Huaiyu's face immediately turned pale, and then she couldn't help but laugh out loud. She gently pushed Jiang NanJin and said, "Stop embarrassing yourself here. Our colleagues are all smart people; who would believe your nonsense?" 0
 
Seeing this, the surrounding colleagues laughed even harder, with some even clapping in agreement: "Jiang NanJin, your sharp tongue truly lives up to its reputation; you don't even spare Bai Huaiyu." 0
 
 
Hearing her colleague's teasing, Jiang NanJin was not to be outdone and pretended to be serious as she said, "I'm just adding to the festive atmosphere of the party; how can that be called a spectacle? Besides, Bai Huaiyu's 'feats' are truly a rare source of joy in our creative process." 0
 
Although Bai Huaiyu was being teased by Jiang NanJin, she knew there was no malice behind it, so she responded with a smile, "Alright, alright. Since you enjoy sharing so much, I'll also share some of your 'heroic' deeds in your creations later." 0
 
 
Jiang NanJin raised an eyebrow at the words, appearing both curious and somewhat skeptical. "Oh? Then I would like to hear how you would describe my extraordinary creative journey." 0
 
In this relaxed and joyful atmosphere, the playful banter between Bai Huaiyu and Jiang NanJin became a vibrant highlight of the party. Their humor and ease with each other filled the gathering with laughter, showcasing their deep friendship and mutual understanding. For every participant, this party would become a cherished memory. 0
 
 
As the party continued, the publisher's boss, Zhang Min, also joined the celebration. He specifically approached Jiang NanJin and Bai Huaiyu to express his high appreciation and praise for their efforts. He said, "Jiang NanJin, Bai Huaiyu, your collaboration is undoubtedly a great asset to the publisher. This success is not just a personal honor; it is the result of our team's collective effort. I hope you can continue to work together to create more wonderful works in the future." 0
 
Jiang NanJin and Bai Huaiyu exchanged glances, seeing the same expectation reflected in each other's eyes. Jiang NanJin gently held Bai Huaiyu's hand and responded to Zhang Min, "Thank you for your encouragement. We will definitely not let everyone down." 0
 
 
As the party reached its peak, the host suggested a light-hearted and fun little game, which immediately piqued everyone's interest. Bai Huaiyu and Jiang Nanjin were enthusiastically pulled into the game circle by their colleagues. They formed a circle, and the atmosphere was both tense and expectant, as if everyone was recalling their own embarrassing or amusing experiences in their minds. 0
 
When it was Bai Huaiyu's turn, a nervous expression appeared on her face, but it was quickly replaced by her optimism. She cleared her throat and began to recount, "Once, while I was preparing important meeting materials, I accidentally washed all the documents because I confused them with a cup of water. At that moment, I really wished there was a hole in the ground I could just disappear into." 0
 
 
Hearing the story of Bai Huaiyu, laughter erupted in the room as everyone speculated whether the story was true. Bai Huaiyu's expression became mysteriously enigmatic, making it even harder to judge. 0
 
Next, it was Jiang NanJin's turn to share. He lazily leaned back in his chair, wearing a nonchalant smile: "I remember once, looking for inspiration, I climbed to the rooftop of the company to get some fresh air, and the security guard mistook me for someone about to jump off. They almost called the police." 0
 
 
His story made the colleagues present burst into laughter, as everyone speculated whether such absurd events had actually occurred. Jiang NanJin's expression, however, revealed no clues, leaving people puzzled. 0
 
As the game progressed, laughter and applause echoed throughout the room. This simple game not only added a lot of joy to the party but also brought the colleagues closer together. Bai Huaiyu and Jiang NanJin infused the game with their sense of humor, creating more vibrant moments and leaving behind wonderful memories of the party. 0
 
 
The party had ended, and Bai Huaiyu and Jiang NanJin stepped out of the lively venue into the tranquil night. The occasional passerby and sparse car lights on the street created a stark contrast to the laughter and joy that had just filled the air. Bai Huaiyu tugged at her light purple dress, seemingly feeling a slight chill in the cool night breeze. 0
 
Jiang NanJin noticed her small gesture and chuckled softly, "It seems our little princess is not quite accustomed to this role tonight." His words carried a playful tone, yet remained gentle. 0
 
 
Bai Huaiyu turned her head to look at him and smiled slightly, "Yes, it feels like I've crossed into another world. However, today's party was really enjoyable; everyone's blessings made me feel very warm." 0
 
Jiang NanJin nodded, casually plucking a leaf from a nearby branch and spinning it lightly on his fingertips, as if deep in thought. "Relaxation is good, but our journey is still long, and the road ahead won't always be smooth." 0
 
 
Bai Huaiyu's eyes flashed with determination as he heard this. "No matter how difficult it is, as long as we don't give up, I believe there is nothing we cannot overcome." 0
 
Jiang NanJin smiled lightly after hearing this, then gently blew the leaf in his hand into the night sky, letting it drift away with the wind. "Well said, let's move forward together." 0
 
 
Two people slowly move forward in the night, at this moment, they both believe that as long as they work together, they can create something beautiful. The starlight in the night sky seems to be shining a blessing on them, illuminating the path ahead. 0
