"Ye Ya'er, don't listen to her nonsense. We just live in the same small courtyard, and I've been guiding her cultivation recently."
Ning Beichen felt a headache coming on, realizing that inviting Ye Ya'er over wasn't such a good idea.
"Oh really?"
Ye Ya'er put on a doubtful expression and immediately said.
"Then I want to live in your courtyard too."
"Stop fooling around. Don't you have work to do?"
Ning Beichen said with a slight headache.
"I can adjust my work schedule. It's my decision anyway," Ye Ya'er said.
"Alright, suit yourself."
Ning Beichen could only say that to her. Compared to Li Wanrong, Ye Ya'er was one of his own. It was fine for one of his own to act spoiled a little.
Besides, he also wanted to guide Ye Ya'er's cultivation, to avoid having less time later, as he could feel a sense of impending storm, like wind before rain.
However, Ning Beichen soon realized he was wrong.
One woman was a blessing, but when two women were together, it was war.
Ye Ya'er and Li Wanrong were like two cats glaring at each other, finding fault even when there was none, leaving Ning Beichen torn between laughter and tears.
One was a former mysterious assassin turned star, while the other came from a renowned family with considerable cultivation.
Coincidentally, both were popular stars, and their ages were not far apart. Li Wanrong was only two years older than Ye Ya'er. Most importantly, neither of these women was kind-hearted. They were all actors, so no one was fooling anyone. If you had acting skills, so did I. The moment you tucked your tail, I knew what you were up to. Don't think you can fool me.
The barbecue left Ning Beichen with a near-ulcer, so he hastily ended the meal and left with the two women.
Ye Ya'er, however, refused to go back. She insisted on staying in Ning Beichen's courtyard for the night.
When Ning Beichen's private beautiful housekeeper saw Ye Ya'er and Li Wanrong returning with Ning Beichen and heard that they were moving in, she was stunned.
Ning Beichen was truly too charming!
One Li Wanrong had already shocked her; she was the most popular female star in Wangjiang.
But one wasn't enough for him. Now he had brought back Ye Ya'er, who was no less than Li Wanrong, and said she was moving in. Honestly, even as a woman, she was incredibly jealous of Ning Beichen.
However, as a professional housekeeper, her worst taboo was to interfere or gossip about her employer's affairs. What she shouldn't ask, she wouldn't, and what she shouldn't say, she absolutely wouldn't.
After confirming Ning Beichen's wishes, she immediately arranged a room for Ye Ya'er.
Ye Ya'er happily moved in and immediately called her director, saying she was busy for the next few days and needed to take a few days off.
For a big star like Ye Ya'er, even if the director was unwilling, he had to concede. He could only grant her a few days off.
When it was time for bed that night, Ye Ya'er, in her pajamas, headed straight for Ning Beichen's room, but was intercepted by Li Wanrong halfway.
"Ye Ya'er, where are you going?"
Li Wanrong asked her with a tone like she was confronting a rebel.
"What business is it of yours? You're too nosy. I'm going to see Ning Beichen."
Ye Ya'er gave her a sidelong glance, her relationship with Ning Beichen was not something Li Wanrong could compare to.
"No, it's very late now. Ning Beichen needs to sleep."
Li Wanrong spread her arms to block her path.
"I want to, can you stop me?"
Ye Ya'er ignored her and pushed past.
Li Wanrong stomped her foot and followed her.
"Why are you following me?"
Ye Ya'er stopped when she saw Li Wanrong trailing behind her and turned back, the two women glaring at each other.
"What's it to you? Wherever you go, I go."
Li Wanrong said.
"Are you going too if I go to sleep with Ning Beichen?"
Ye Ya'er gave her a disdainful look.
"Ye Ya'er, how can you say such shameless things? You're a big star."
Li Wanrong's face turned red. She probably hadn't expected Ye Ya'er to say such a bold thing.
"Hmph! I knew Ning Beichen long before you even knew where you were. Li Wanrong, if you want to compete with me, save your energy."
Ye Ya'er's smug attitude almost made Li Wanrong's blood pressure spike.
"What's so great about knowing him earlier? You're not Ning Beichen's girlfriend, so why can't I go?"
Li Wanrong gritted her teeth, walked past Ye Ya'er, and headed towards Ning Beichen's room.
Ning Beichen was dumbfounded when the two women suddenly barged into his room.
Hadn't they had enough of fighting all evening?
"What are you two doing?"
Ning Beichen asked them with a stern face.
Ye Ya'er, who had been so arrogant moments ago, was now subdued, stammering for a long time, her head lowered like a submissive young wife.
In the end, Ning Beichen kicked both of them out; neither was allowed to stay.
Outside the door, the two women huffed and returned to their own rooms. Neither had won; it was a stalemate.
Ning Beichen was also given a headache by the two of them.
He really didn't know what it was about him that Li Wanrong fancied. In terms of looks, he, Ning Beichen, couldn't compare to those pretty boy stars in the entertainment industry.
However, Ning Beichen possessed a certain sunny and extraordinary aura that those male stars lacked.
After all, Ning Beichen was a cultivator, and a transcended one at that. He didn't need to use skincare products to maintain his youth and vitality like those male stars.
Quite the opposite.
After becoming a transcended, Ning Beichen became even younger. His skin was so smooth that even Liu Yilin envied him.
Moreover, his experiences and cultivation made him exude an extraordinary aura that ordinary men didn't have. Many people, just by looking at him, would be drawn to his charisma.
Perhaps this was one of the reasons why Li Wanrong was so persistent with Ning Beichen.
Of course, there were also Ning Beichen's abilities, his rescue of her from Ling Jue, and his guidance in her cultivation.
However, Ning Beichen was not interested in dealing with her at the moment. What concerned him more was the matter of transcended beings.
From then on, Ning Beichen guided both of them in their cultivation whenever he had free time, and Ye Ya'er's cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds.
Speaking of which, Ning Beichen was Ye Ya'er's first cultivation mentor, and he was very generous with her, giving her a share of any elixirs. Therefore, her cultivation progress had been remarkable in the past few days.
The only drawback, like Li Wanrong, was that although their cultivation had improved, they lacked practical combat experience.
Since the two women couldn't stand each other, Ning Beichen simply arranged for them to spar.
Indeed, after a few days, their practical combat experience improved significantly. Most importantly, as they both wanted to defeat the other, they went all out in their fights, never holding back, often leaving them with bruised faces.
However, with Ning Beichen present, they were never in mortal danger, though minor injuries and bruises were unavoidable.
