Aman at Yangyun is a nationally renowned hotel.
It's also quite famous in the Magic Capital, so naturally, he had heard of it.
Each Aman hotel is meticulously designed by specialized designers.
Aman only establishes itself in cities with strong consumer power, and each city's Aman hotel has its unique features.
The Aman in the Magic Capital has a special story.
Every brick and tile inside has its historical origins.
The over 10,000 camphor trees and the design of the ancient houses come from Xijiang Ancient Village, over 700 kilometers away from the Magic Capital.
Due to the geographical and social environment, the construction of a reservoir, and other factors, this ancient village was about to be submerged underwater forever.
There were more than fifty ancient houses from the Ming and Qing dynasties in this village.
Upon learning of this, philanthropists and businessmen in the Magic Capital launched a massive appeal and jointly invested 3.3 billion to relocate these millennia-old historical relics to Aman at Yangyun in the Magic Capital.
This move not only preserved many historical relics but also elevated the cultural and humanistic depth of Aman at Yangyun.
Zhou Ying had stayed there with her parents a few years ago, so she knew a bit about Aman.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Ying smiled and said to Jiang Cheng, "I went to Aman with my parents before. It's indeed nice inside, and the service is excellent, but we didn't have an airport pickup when we went."
Jiang Cheng shrugged, "It's my first time booking this hotel too, but they called me yesterday saying there's an airport pickup service. I thought it was standard."
"Maybe you booked a more expensive room. We only booked a Ming Pavilion room before, which was just over nine thousand a night."
"Oh, I booked a Courtyard Villa," Jiang Cheng said lightly.
"A Courtyard Villa, are you staying there alone?" Zhou Ying asked curiously.
Jiang Cheng nodded, "Yeah."
"Wow, an eighty-thousand-a-night Courtyard Villa. Jiang Cheng, I didn't expect you to be a second-generation rich," Zhou Ying exclaimed, glancing at Jiang Cheng in surprise.
"Come on, as if you're not a second-generation rich too."
Zhou Ying was not only the campus belle of their school but also a well-known second-generation rich in their grade.
She was always picked up and dropped off by various luxury cars, Bentley, Rolls-Royce, BMW, Mercedes.
At their innocent age, Zhou Ying was already carrying an LV backpack and wearing Gucci sneakers.
Because of this, although Zhou Ying was beautiful and had excellent grades, few boys dared to pursue her.
However, in their sophomore year, it was rumored that something happened to her family, but Jiang Cheng wasn't sure what exactly.
He only knew that there were no more luxury cars picking her up from school.
Thinking of this, Jiang Cheng felt he might have said something wrong.
Recalling that Zhou Ying mentioned she was going to work, he wondered if her family had fallen on hard times.
Zhou Ying's expression only showed a momentary awkwardness before returning to normal.
She smiled wryly and said, "I'm no longer a second-generation rich. Even when my family had money, we couldn't afford a Courtyard Villa."
***
Qian Shen watched Zhou Ying and Jiang Cheng casually discussing an eighty-thousand-a-night Pavilion Villa, his face changing colors.
Could these two really be second-generation rich? How could they discuss such high-end topics and stay at Aman at Yangyun for eighty thousand a night? If it's true, he'd be mortified.
He sneaked a glance at Jiang Cheng and saw that neither of them noticed him, so Qian Shen quickly turned his head and pretended to sleep, not daring to make a sound.
Even though he wasn't sure if Jiang Cheng was bragging, what if it was true?
Seeing Qian Shen not interrupting anymore, the two started chatting about school, and they found they had quite a lot in common.
After all, they had been in the same class for three years.
As they chatted, they started listening to music, and over two hours passed quickly.
During this time, Jiang Cheng used the Favorability Value scanning system to check Zhou Ying.
[Name: Zhou Ying]
[Age: 18]
[Height: 172 cm]
[Appearance: 96]
[Figure: 96]
[Privacy: 0]
[Favorability Value: 75 (Friend Status)]
Jiang Cheng raised an eyebrow at the scanning system.
He didn't expect Zhou Ying to be so tall. If she wore ten-centimeter heels, she'd be as tall as him.
What surprised Jiang Cheng the most was that Zhou Ying's Favorability Value towards him was as high as 75 points.
Could it be that Zhou Ying had been paying attention to him? Normally, a typical classmate relationship would only score around 65 points.

Soon, the plane arrived at the airport in the Magic Capital.
Jiang Cheng only had a small bag with him, so after helping Zhou Ying retrieve her suitcase from the baggage claim, Zhou Ying asked, "You don't have any luggage?"
Jiang Cheng nodded, "Just brought a set of clothes."
Zhou Ying was envious, "You guys have it easy when traveling."
Just then, the airport pickup call from Aman at Yangyun came through.
A gentle female voice came from the other end, "Hello, Mr. Jiang, I'm Wang Yuyan, your Private Butler for the Pavilion Villa you reserved. I'm waiting for you at the exit."
"Alright, I'm almost out."
"Okay, Mr. Jiang, no rush, we await your arrival."
After hanging up, Jiang Cheng asked Zhou Ying, "Where are you headed? How about I give you a ride?"
Zhou Ying thought for a moment, "I'm going to a friend's place, it might not be on the way to Aman at Yangyun."
"No worries, I don't have any plans today, and the pickup car is free anyway."
Zhou Ying thought for a moment and smiled, "Thank you then, it's probably hard to get a taxi with so many people."
"We're classmates, no need to be polite."
Zhou Ying didn't think much of it, just felt that Jiang Cheng was quite nice.
After all, she knew about Jiang Cheng and Zhao Jia, and it was said he treated Zhao Jia very well.
Having been in the same class for three years, Jiang Cheng never showed any interest in her.
If they hadn't happened to be on the same flight, Zhou Ying thought Jiang Cheng probably wouldn't have approached her.
Her impression of Jiang Cheng was because he was a sunny and cheerful boy in their class, tall and handsome, and good at basketball.
He was not only well-liked by many boys but also quite popular among girls.
In that youthful age, Zhou Ying would occasionally pay some attention to Jiang Cheng.
