Who is still a star after rebirth?

Chapter 165: Pure and Innocent Master-Disciple Relationship

Lin Luo finally managed to skip class with Li Yumeng, but they had takeout for lunch, so of course he had to make up for it in the evening.

Yes.

In the evening, Lin Luo drove and took Li Yumeng to a restaurant that he liked to go to in his previous life.

The exterior of this restaurant is a retro European-style building with exterior walls covered with ivy. An exquisite wrought iron chandelier hangs at the door, emitting soft light, welcoming every customer.

"This is actually a restaurant?"

Li Yumeng was a little surprised. Although this restaurant was located in a bustling area, it was cleverly hidden in a quiet courtyard, like a peaceful oasis in the bustling city.

“The taste of his restaurant is also good.”

Lin Luo liked to come to this restaurant in his previous life, but this restaurant had just opened not long ago and the decoration was very new, with high ceilings, gorgeous crystal chandeliers, and impressionist paintings on the walls, which added an artistic atmosphere. The interior decoration of the restaurant was mainly white and gold, creating an elegant yet warm atmosphere.

“It tastes really good.”

The food was prepared fairly quickly by the kitchen, and Li Yumeng praised it immediately after taking a small bite of the seafood risotto. This restaurant has a more French menu, and this seafood risotto is a fusion of Asian flavors.

At this time, soft jazz music was playing in the restaurant, which made people feel particularly relaxed. While enjoying the food, Li Yumeng looked at her master sitting opposite her, and suddenly felt that this moment was particularly beautiful.

Lin Luo noticed Li Yumeng's gaze, smiled at her gently, and then lowered his head to eat his food.

Going out to eat with a girl doesn't necessarily require you to show off yourself endlessly. A restaurant with the right environment and a touch of just the right amount of tenderness will make her feel a little romantic.

Of course, the premise of such a suitable environment requires a little money as a preparation and support. If you can't go to a high-end restaurant, it is better to find another way and eat directly at a roadside stall.

In fact, the meal for Lin Luo and Li Yumeng cost over a thousand yuan, even though they didn't order much. It was not affordable for ordinary college students. However, Lin Luo was rich, and his apprentice's family seemed to be well off, so neither of them thought it was a big deal.

After the meal, Li Yumeng wanted to pay the bill, but was told that Lin Luo had already paid.

"I'll ask Master for help next time."

When Li Yumeng spoke, Lin Luo smiled and said, "As a young disciple, can't I just enjoy the care of my master with peace of mind?"

"Then Master, please treat me next time."

Li Yumeng suddenly blinked and said, "Master, will you find me a junior sister in the future?"

"Probably not."

Lin Luo shook his head and said, "If you hadn't volunteered to help me manage the book review section and shamelessly called me master, I wouldn't have taught you so much."

"whee."

Li Yumeng seemed very happy, although she was still saying something, "It seems that I don't have a little junior sister anymore, which is really a pity."

Lin Luo teased her: "If you really want a junior sister, I can also take in another female disciple. After all, teaching one is teaching two, and I will teach you two together in the future."

"it's not good!"

Li Yumeng's face changed and she said, "Master, you are still a student and you have to go to class. How can you have the energy to teach two little apprentices? I alone am enough for you to be busy with."

"Is it?"

Lin Luo smiled and said, "Are you afraid that with a new junior sister, Master will no longer favor you alone?"

"Does the master favor me?"

Li Yumeng asked this question even though she knew the answer. She could naturally feel how much her master cared for her, especially today.

"Master likes to pamper you."

Lin Luo rubbed Li Yumeng's head, then smiled and said, "Get in the car, I'll take you back to school. Today's classes are over."

"What course?"

Li Yumeng got on the passenger seat, fastened her seat belt, and said, "I feel like I just skipped class today to go out on a date with my master."

"Whatever you say."

Lin Luo concentrated on driving and sent Li Yumeng to the gate of their school, then parked the car on the side of the road.

“Today has passed so quickly.”

Li Yumeng was actually a little reluctant to let it end like this, and looked at Lin Luo, but she didn't expect that he would suddenly turn sideways and press his whole body over her.

What is the Master going to do?
Do you want to kiss yourself?

At this moment, Li Yumeng was stunned. She clenched the corners of her clothes with both hands and felt her heartbeat almost overloaded: "As a master and disciple, is a parting kiss too advanced?"

As if she was afraid and confused about what was going to happen next, Li Yumeng closed her eyes, and as a result, her chest inexplicably felt relieved.

"Mengmeng?"

Lin Luo's voice rang out, and he felt funny in his heart, why does this trick work on all girls?

Could it be because the driver helped the passenger unbuckle his seat belt, which is a strange behavior in itself?
Li Yumeng's eyebrows trembled, and she gently opened her eyes and found that Lin Luo had returned to her seat. She realized...

The master helps me to unfasten my seat belt.

Oh my god, what I just imagined was too embarrassing. Li Yumeng blushed and wanted to find a hole to crawl into. She almost got out of the car and said in a panic:
"Goodbye, Master!"

By the time Lin Luo said "goodbye", Li Yumeng's back was about to disappear at the school gate.

Lin Luo couldn't help but laugh.

Li Yumeng is a shy girl. She must have misunderstood that he was going to kiss her, so she felt embarrassed and ran away.

Although this misunderstanding was deliberately caused by that bastard Lin Luo, it was just to plant certain seeds in Li Yumeng's heart.

Don’t think that these “seeds” are meaningless. People’s psychology will be affected by various suggestions.

Just like when we were in school, many people must have joked that a boy and a girl in the class were a couple.

Even if these two people don't have any feelings for each other, they will be subtly affected psychologically by being teased by their classmates, and they will really start to imagine what it would be like for the two of them to be together.

Lin Luo could feel that Li Yumeng was defenseless against him. Even though she misunderstood that he wanted to kiss her, she did not try to dodge, but just closed her eyes in nervousness and fear.

This is actually not shyness, but a way of escape, which shows that Li Yumeng's feelings for him are not a love between a man and a woman, but more like the pure feelings of a disciple for his master.

Of course, Lin Luo was not satisfied with this, so he wanted to give Mengmeng some hints to let her imagine boldly.

……

After Li Yumeng returned to the dormitory, her face was still red, and she still felt socially dead at the moment!
But my roommate Zhou Hongli came over and teased, "Mengmeng, why is your face so red? Did you play some blushing game with your boyfriend?"

Li Yumeng covered her face and whispered to Zhou Hongli: "He is not my boyfriend."

Zhou Hongli was stunned for a moment: "Then you...so you...what's going on..."

Li Yumeng didn't want other roommates to hear, so she took Zhou Hongli out of the dormitory, and then explained the relationship between herself and Lin Luo, and also told them Lin Luo's identity. She had asked her master during the day, and her master said it was okay to tell Zhou Hongli these.

"Fuck me!"

Zhou Hongli burst into swearing after hearing this, her eyes widened, and her mouth was so shocked that a goose egg could fit in it. She didn't expect Lin Luo's identity to be so impressive -

Lin Luo is a famous composer, Qian Xueying’s younger brother, and a best-selling author. The TV series adapted from his novels are very popular, such as “Kim’s Secretary”, which I even watched!
"No wonder you look down on everyone, Mengmeng. It turns out you have such an awesome master. You must tell me the truth. Does Lin Luo want to pursue you?" "No."

Li Yumeng smiled and said, "Master and I met during the military training last semester, but I couldn't get an appointment with him last semester. Today is the first time he came to see me."

"Well, it seems that Lin Luo really doesn't have any feelings for you. He only treats you as his apprentice. If he really had feelings for you, he wouldn't have endured for a whole semester before taking action."

Zhou Hongli spoke with regret.

But then, Zhou Hongli suddenly changed the subject and said, "Then you don't have any thoughts about this handsome master? He is so outstanding, so handsome, and so gentle and caring to you!"

"I like Master, but to me, he is like my... Don't laugh when you hear this, I feel like he is like my father. Strictly speaking, this kind of feeling can probably be considered as a feeling of admiration?"

Li Yumeng slowly analyzed:
“Maybe it’s because when I first started calling Lin Luo Master, I always thought of him as an elder in my heart, so I naturally had more trust in him.

Before I officially met Lin Luo, I never thought that such a powerful master would be my peer.

It's probably because of preconceived ideas. So even though we found out that Lin Luo and I are about the same age after meeting, I still feel in my heart that he is my master. After all, the feeling of closeness and familiarity is the same as when we met online.

You probably wouldn't understand if you haven't interacted with Master. Although he is the same age as us, he is actually very mature inside. The feeling that he can handle everything with ease is a bit like my mother.

In short, I feel particularly attached to and close to Master. It seems that I feel particularly safe when Master is around. Apart from my mother, he is probably the person I trust the most. I hope our relationship can always be this close. "

"My silly Meng Meng."

Zhou Hongli frowned after hearing this and said, "No matter what you say, Lin Luo is like an elder, and that doesn't change the fact that you are of the same age. If you are not his girlfriend, he will distance himself from you in the future. You must be mentally prepared for this."

Li Yumeng frowned and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Zhou Hongli sighed and said, "If Lin Luo was my boyfriend, I would never accept that he had such a beautiful female apprentice, and I would not accept his gentle care for this female apprentice, because I don't believe that Lin Luo and you have a completely pure master-disciple relationship. Even if it is now, it does not mean it will be in the future. This is just like I cannot imagine the so-called pure friendship between men and women."

Li Yumeng was startled, and suddenly thought of something: "Master said he had an ex-girlfriend...so he didn't look for me last semester, could it be because of that ex-girlfriend?"

"Case solved."

Zhou Hongli sighed and said, "He was afraid that his ex-girlfriend would be unhappy, so he didn't contact you. He should be contacting you now because you have broken up. He doesn't need to care about anyone's feelings."

Li Yumeng fell silent, her brows furrowed, the corners of her mouth slightly turned down. So, it turned out that her master came to her after a semester because of that ex-girlfriend?

You know, last semester, Li Yumeng hinted to Lin Luo several times that she wanted to meet him, but she was too shy to directly say "I want to see you", so the master always pretended not to understand.

At that time, Li Yumeng never thought that the reason for not meeting was because of that ex-girlfriend...

Zhou Hongli continued, "Lin Luo will have other girlfriends in the future, and they won't accept your existence either. So I say that Lin Luo will still distance himself from you in the future, unless he never looks for a girlfriend again, or..."

"Or what?"

Li Yumeng was a little anxious.

Zhou Hongli smiled and said, "Or you can become Lin Luo's girlfriend yourself. Then things will be simple. No one will stop him from meeting you, and Lin Luo might even dote on you even more."

Li Yumeng blushed.

"It's inappropriate, it's weird. I'm his apprentice, how can I be his girlfriend?"

"Why not? I think Lin Luo may not be completely indifferent to you. Your feelings towards Lin Luo may not be purely a master-disciple relationship."

Zhou Hongli teased, "When I mentioned Lin Luo's girlfriend just now, your brows were knitted into knots, did you know that? This means that in your heart, you subconsciously resist Lin Luo having a girlfriend. Maybe you are even a little jealous, jealous that there is a girl who has taken away Lin Luo's love for you."

Li Yumeng looked at Zhou Hongli in shock. She admitted in her heart that she felt a little uncomfortable when she heard that her master had a girlfriend.

This feeling is probably similar to when a master takes in another female disciple. Li Yumeng would feel that the person is trying to compete for her favor, and she would subconsciously resist.

Including today, the song that my master gave me was obviously of such good quality, but I felt a little resistant to it.

Because the master said that it was a song he wrote for his ex-girlfriend, so Li Yumeng didn't like it, even though the song was really good.

"So just admit it. When you met Lin Luo online, the feelings you had for him were indeed pure master-disciple feelings. But after meeting him in person, you discovered that he was not the uncle you imagined. You were all the same age. From that moment on, your filial piety became somewhat tainted."

Zhou Hongli stared at Li Yumeng and said.

Li Yumeng didn't speak for a long time, her expression was a little dazed, and after a long time she said firmly: "My filial piety will not change."

"Then you should continue to be a good disciple. When Lin Luo has a girlfriend again, and in order not to make his girlfriend unhappy, he doesn't meet you for another semester, then you will know whether your filial piety will deteriorate."

Zhou Hongli actually said this on purpose. She didn't know whether Li Yumeng liked Lin Luo or not.

But as a good friend, Zhou Hongli felt that Lin Luo was an excellent boy, and she hoped that Li Yumeng could become a couple with such an excellent boy, so she deliberately provoked Mengmeng with some words.

"I will have a good talk with Master. Even if he has a girlfriend, he cannot ignore me. Otherwise, I will... I will..."

Li Yumeng opened her mouth stubbornly, but after saying "I just" for a long time, she couldn't come up with any specific content.

Anyway, Li Yumeng doesn't want to not see each other for a semester again. In her heart, the relationship between master and disciple is still pure and flawless. No matter who her master finds as a girlfriend, he should not abandon her as his disciple.

"Speaking of which, I find this matter quite magical. Mengmeng, aren't you a bit misogynistic?"

"Who hates men..."

"You obviously have a physical resistance to any boy who approaches you. Don't think I can't see it. There are people in school saying that you like girls."

"It's not that exaggerated."

Li Yumeng said calmly: "I just don't want to get too close to boys, it's not that I hate boys."

"What about Lin Luo?"

"Master is different."

"What's different?"

"At first I thought my master was a girl because he wrote novels for women. Later, my master and I communicated through the Internet. We got to know each other through each other's voices. When we officially met, he was already my master. No matter how old he is, whether he is a man or a woman, he is my favorite master."

"I see……"

Zhou Hongli smiled and said, "You have such deep feelings for Master, if he pursues you, would you agree?"

"Agree."

Li Yumeng spoke.

Zhou Hongli was stunned: "Didn't you say that your relationship with him is purely that of a master and a disciple?"

Li Yumeng smiled and said, "You haven't heard of the saying 'Master's orders are hard to disobey'? Besides, my master and I have played lovers twice, so it doesn't matter if I play with him for the third time."

"Acting? No, normal acting only involves playing out the surface of the plot. If he pursues you, it may not just be as simple as holding hands. There may also be kissing, or even..."

Zhou Hongli paused.

Li Yumeng's ears turned red: "Kissing is fine, but what you said is even... shouldn't we get married first..."

"What if he proposes to you?"

"Don't be too ridiculous. Master doesn't have that kind of feelings towards me. If he really has feelings for me, why didn't he take action last semester? Why did he suddenly think I'm pretty this semester?"

Li Yumeng believed that her master's feelings for her were as pure and innocent as her own feelings for him.
