Also known as: When the classmate who fixed my correction tape back in the day grew up to become a playboy.
After graduating from college and returning home, Chen Chuyan spotted a vaguely familiar figure while waiting in line to board a ferry in Hong Kong.
"Hey, look." She nudged her friend with her elbow. "See that really handsome guy over there? He looks just like my elementary school classmate."
Three seconds later, a WeChat notification chimed on her phone.
She opened it to find a message from the elementary school classmate she'd added but never spoken to again, saved in her contacts as "The One Who Fixed My Correction Tape."
"It's not just that he looks like me. It is me."
That was what the message said.

* Angsty, very angsty, and full of melodrama.
* A love story between adults. No life-or-death devotion, no eternal vows. Love isn't everything in life.
