Shh, I Actually Know Who He Is

Complete! A truly hilarious and adorable story!!!! A short-tempered guy and a beautiful idiot, with a naturally scheming girl at first who becomes a clever little schemer later, causing chaos as they venture through the world.

Lu Yan is a human-shaped anchor that holds the sea in place.

For a thousand years, she has guarded the boundless Nine Hells, keeping them peaceful.

But no one knows that for a thousand years, Lu Yan has lived alone in a tiny room barely two meters across, never seeing daylight.

As time passed, she came to think this was normal. She couldn't even remember why she was there. She only remembered that once, a very handsome person had gently told her, "Yan-yan, be good. Stay here in your senior sister's place, and when Master comes back, I'll take you out for honey cakes."

Waiting was something she was good at. All right, she would be good and wait.

Until one day, someone split her "room" open with a sword wreathed in demonic energy.

Startled, she looked up.

The light was too bright for her eyes, and they began to bleed.

From outside came a domineering, irritable voice: "A person?"

Lu Yan curled up in a corner and covered her eyes.

Then she heard light footsteps. The person came closer, and she could feel him crouch in front of her.

"Are you the... thing guarding this place?"

Lu Yan said nothing.

"Hey, come with me. I'll take you out to have some fun," he coaxed.

"I can't. I have to stay here and wait for him to come back."

The other person was exasperated. "Wait for who? Don't you know how much fun it is outside? Come on, I'll take you... to eat honey cakes!"

Honey cakes... Is it him? Has he come back?

Lu Yan was led away from that place. Then... then she realized he wasn't the person she was waiting for.

Who was he? Hush. She didn't want to know anymore. She was so happy now.
