Don't pretend you don't know me - We seem to know each other..?

**My gaze flicked to the doorway, catching a fleeting silhouette.**

Her. The figure moved fast, but the outline was unmistakable.

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83GS2TC9zf

I'm Lu Huai, and that was my childhood friend.

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63QypepJm5

The eternal second-place finisher.

A writing prodigy.

A novelist who naively thinks she's hidden her identity well.

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6RjWYbwsw

True, no one else knows the famous author "Tang-Tang" is actually her. But I uncovered her secret long ago.

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNJFhjaeox

That writer who reliably delivers 100,000-word updates, whose prose is sharp yet whimsically unreasonable.

I discovered her during a sleepless night, scrolling through a forum when one of her campus novels caught my eye. At first glance, it didn't interest me much—until I saw the comments section erupting:

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zvkr2fqWk

*"Are you writing about Lu Huai in this story!?"*

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUj7eQhsbj

Honestly, I didn't react much at first.

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJU2rKixUHb

Then I reached Chapter Two—the protagonist barely spoke, struggled with emotions, excelled in STEM, and often got lost in his own world.

*Hm... Now I understand why readers were making a fuss.*

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2HsItC0Ym

I didn't comment or like the post. Just quietly bookmarked it.

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cefBvohnE

From that day on, I refreshed her updates religiously, occasionally dropping brief remarks under an alt account:

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDwgivkvWw

**[lii]:** *"The male lead's dialogue feels off today."*

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgAloVEdif

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIcGtjgL5z

**[lii]:** *"Guilty conscience?"*

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuu3TprqhKF

Then I'd wait for her edits.

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJNTBwsxgo

Though Jiang Tang never replied, she'd quietly delete an overly bold narration or patch in an explanatory line next chapter.

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZq6flrMVum

Honestly? Just knowing she read my comments satisfied me.

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhX5mptt8o1

At school, we act like strangers, our eyes barely meeting.

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡModX4lRffN

But through words, it feels like we've known each other forever.
