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.

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gRFJZa4hL

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

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0tDFXUk3C

The eternal second-place finisher.

A writing prodigy.

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

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLqNOZWnj8

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

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Qs3et25Lq

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:

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkjgAMx48T

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

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtvkIbCqXx

Honestly, I didn't react much at first.

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqHNhYCvqu

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

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmXv6SKFVl

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

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBuOk4bORu

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

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8UrLAxRJ6

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

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9QbhkLFbi

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

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbalDnr0pL

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLtfP3vzk9

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

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXkrGzcM1Q

Then I'd wait for her edits.

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUjVWt0yro

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

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡad2w6OzuoR

Honestly? Just knowing she read my comments satisfied me.

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkeguhKp4H

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

124Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5okHcKzHq

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