Chapter 340 Loquats in the Courtyard
The boy smiled, offered no explanation, and simply said, "I believe she is a good person."

He didn't mention that Song Lan had just told him not to try to make deals with evil spirits, that there's no such thing as a free lunch, and that every gift comes with a price.

It may seem like you haven't paid any price now, but when the time comes to actually pay the price, you might not be able to bear it.

Even though he hadn't said anything yet, she seemed to see right through his thoughts—despicable, dark, reckless, and resolute.

For some reason, he subconsciously felt that he should listen to Song Lan.

Otherwise, he would certainly not have a good ending.

That intense fear ultimately convinced him that Song Lan was a good person, and he gave up the idea of ​​exchanging his life for hers.

I no longer dare to think about those "get-rich-quick" deals.

If you think about it, you'll realize that there's no such thing as getting something for nothing in this world.

Even if there were, it would probably have to be exchanged for something more precious.

That man was right. Even though he is penniless and has nothing to his name now, one day he will have what he considers precious again.

When the time comes, his insatiable desires of today will naturally appear and take away the happiness and comfort he will have in the future.

It's best to be down-to-earth.

The boy didn't know if his thinking was right or wrong, and he even doubted whether he was being too optimistic and thinking too highly of the world.

Knowing that one is already deeply mired in trouble, one should try every means, regardless of the circumstances, to escape.

But for some reason, he just really trusted that person.

They always felt that if they didn't believe and didn't listen properly, they would suffer a great loss and be punished severely.

Song Lan returned to the Changsheng Temple.

Liu Wu received the news immediately and rushed over like a gust of wind.

"My Lady Ghost! You're back!"

He was incredibly attentive, massaging shoulders and legs for people, his flattery bordering on obsequiousness.

Song Lan raised an eyebrow, but didn't expose his little schemes, quietly watching him act silly in front of her. Not long after, Su Xianyun also ran over, glaring fiercely at Liu Wu, annoyed that he was an unethical guy who had secretly come to fawn over her.

"benefactor!"

Seeing Liu Wu running around serving Song Lan, massaging her shoulders and legs, Su Xianyun squeezed forward, pushing Liu Wu aside, and took over the task of massaging Song Lan's shoulders herself.

"My benefactor! Let me give you a shoulder massage! Try my skills, I guarantee they're just as good as that hothead's!"

As Su Xianyun spoke, she began to practice with remarkable skill.

Liu Wu glared at her, wanting to take back his position, but not daring to.

He could only sulk silently, his anger seething inside.

This girl is so lacking in martial ethics!

They don't even understand the rule of first come, first served!

He's clearly the female ghost's number one lackey!
Seeing that he had lost the opportunity to massage Song Lan's shoulders, Liu Wu had to find another way to curry favor and switch to another route.

"My lady ghost, please have a taste."

"These are loquats grown by the abbot himself. There are so many, but only a few are ripe, but they are all very sweet."

Liu Wu filled a bamboo basket with some bright yellow loquats and rinsed them several times in the well water.

He eagerly handed the peeled loquat to Song Lan.

Song Lan was quite obliging and took a bite.

Loquats rinsed in well water are sweet, refreshing, and cool; the taste is indeed quite good.

It has a very natural, fully ripe flavor.

"How was it? How was it?" Liu Wu was like a puppy waiting for a reward, eager to get his master's approval.

Song Lan gave a soft "hmm": "It's acceptable."
