Chapter 381 Exposed
The crab spirit was quiet for a moment, seemingly pondering whether Song Lan had lied to her.

"Is what you said true?"

The crab spirit still didn't quite understand, but she felt that what Song Lan said seemed to make some sense.

That means... Song Lan might not have lied to her?

Upon realizing this possibility, the crab spirit's expression instantly turned sour.

If Song Lan really wasn't lying to her, then wasn't she just yelling and shouting at the wrong person?

Crab is pure of heart and has not experienced much of the wickedness of the world, so she is inevitably a bit too rigid. She is straightforward and inflexible, sticking to her principles. In fact, in her definition, there is only black and white, with no gray area whatsoever.

Therefore, she realized that she had misunderstood Song Lan, and immediately felt very uncomfortable.

He wished he could directly compensate Song Lan as if she were his benefactor.

"I have no need, and no reason, to lie to you."

Song Lan slowly sipped her tea: "What good would it do me to lie to you?"

The crab spirit thought about it seriously: "Then it seems that there really isn't one."

She felt something was off, and after thinking about it over and over again, she finally concluded that Song Lan probably hadn't lied to her after all.

So, did she really misunderstand Song Lan?
The crab was filled with melancholy.

This realization made her feel terrible, like a whole crab.

She felt deeply guilty and thought: She really deserves to die!

"I misunderstood you, and I apologize."

The crab spirit was exceptionally sincere and frank: "I'm sorry, I was too impulsive just now and wronged you. I apologize and hope you can forgive me."

She bowed deeply to Song Lan.

Then, in a very serious tone, he said, "Even if you don't want to forgive me, that's okay."

"You have the right not to forgive me."

"There's no need for me to feel wronged just because I apologized." Song Lan was somewhat amused by her words.

"No wonder Heaven allowed you to cultivate into a demon; you truly are a crab with no meaning."

The crab spirit was instantly delighted.

It's a pity she doesn't have a tail, otherwise her tail would have been sticking up to the sky long ago.

"You are a good person too."

"No, it's a ghost!"

The crab spirit returned the compliment as if it were a courtesy, but then still asked, puzzled, "If you didn't lie to me, why did you show up at the steamed bun shop and have him deliver crab roe soup dumplings to you on time?"

Then, as if reluctantly but generously, she said, "If you need my crab roe to strengthen your cultivation, you can simply take it from me."

If everything Song Lan said is true, then it means that everyone who obtains crab roe through the steamed bun shop owner will place the blame and sins on the shop owner.

So if the crab spirit really wants to repay the debt of gratitude, from now on, we can no longer provide him with crab roe.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be helping him, but harming him!
"It's nothing, I just wanted to bring you here to meet me, just like this."

"Then I'll tell you that the person you thought was your benefactor was just taking advantage of your foolishness..."

Song Lan's lips curled up slightly: "Do you think that your so-called benefactor knows nothing about these things?"

"How can this be!"

The crab spirit was furious, feeling that Song Lan was slandering her benefactor.

"Why isn't it possible?"

"Perhaps from the very beginning, their family never intended to gain endless benefits from you."

"But what if it goes on for too long?"

"The greed of human nature stems from the fact that people only firmly believe they could never stray onto the path of corruption when they have never obtained or enjoyed the pleasure of getting something for nothing."

"But once you've had a taste, how many of them can truly become saints?"
