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.

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KIIkKHgIT

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

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGF6aGdr1Vm

The eternal second-place finisher.

A writing prodigy.

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

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yjykMH7Qn

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

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByca6El5VH

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:

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWNMXpNmgw

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

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83TOzS76oR

Honestly, I didn't react much at first.

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxodNBlNhA4

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

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9kzwpesmV

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

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNJjVvyK9n

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

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DwwmSUNwM

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

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifGHVdotJ3

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

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ouLGRFjIO

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlDVewlW2F

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

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5Wzio4AiG

Then I'd wait for her edits.

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp128CX5iTy

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

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8r46TvuMs

Honestly? Just knowing she read my comments satisfied me.

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrAXTV9jeD

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

41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz75hBI40c8

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