I Don’t Want to Be Your Disciple!

The protagonist is the pursuer. First-person narration.

[Iron-headed, earnest young man pursues x unlucky master receives]

The year I turned eighteen, Li Bowen came looking for me and offered me a different path in life. It was the first time my heart had ever stirred.

He was a little unreliable. I didn’t want to be his disciple; I just wanted us to stand as equals.

I kept wondering what would happen if I wasn’t the person he was looking for. Later, I found the answer.

This was fate, but also the work of human hands.
