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

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

I'm Lu Huai, and that was my childhood friend.
93Please respect copyright.PENANAfqzZcCkGhF
The eternal second-place finisher.
A writing prodigy.
A novelist who naively thinks she's hidden her identity well.

True, no one else knows the famous author "Tang-Tang" is actually her. But I uncovered her secret long ago.
93Please respect copyright.PENANA1jJMh0U6Fg
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:
93Please respect copyright.PENANArQiI7aCy3R
*"Are you writing about Lu Huai in this story!?"*
93Please respect copyright.PENANAlBydIpwOT8
Honestly, I didn't react much at first.

Then I reached Chapter Two—the protagonist barely spoke, struggled with emotions, excelled in STEM, and often got lost in his own world.
93Please respect copyright.PENANAAzHbF84yOi
*Hm... Now I understand why readers were making a fuss.*
93Please respect copyright.PENANAcEbimfCtwp
I didn't comment or like the post. Just quietly bookmarked it.

From that day on, I refreshed her updates religiously, occasionally dropping brief remarks under an alt account:
93Please respect copyright.PENANAecXOrVjypW
**[lii]:** *"The male lead's dialogue feels off today."*
93Please respect copyright.PENANAFEQuRZvduY
Or
93Please respect copyright.PENANAVh9SpJNQ0R
**[lii]:** *"Guilty conscience?"*
93Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0zwtUrehC
Then I'd wait for her edits.

Though Jiang Tang never replied, she'd quietly delete an overly bold narration or patch in an explanatory line next chapter.
93Please respect copyright.PENANAo9JHa11ALR
Honestly? Just knowing she read my comments satisfied me.

At school, we act like strangers, our eyes barely meeting.
93Please respect copyright.PENANANBzsqWHsRQ
But through words, it feels like we've known each other forever.
