"Alright, please wait a moment," Wang Yuyan turned around and fetched a bottle of champagne for Jiang Cheng from the wine cabinet.
The luxurious suite Jiang Cheng rented in Chengdu with Yu Xiaoxiao costs over 5,000 a night, but its service is far less attentive than that of Luxury Hotel.
After all, Luxury Hotel's 80,000‑a‑night Tingge Villa not only has an open‑air balcony, a private pool, and a hot‑spring bathroom, but also offers aromatherapy spa, hydrotherapy rooms, a game room, and everything else imaginable.
Staying here, you can enjoy a full day's worth of amenities without even leaving the premises.
Wang Yuyan opened the champagne, poured half a glass into a highball, then carried the wine tray over and placed it beside the pool.
Having prepared everything, Wang Yuyan respectfully stood aside again, watching Jiang Cheng swim back and forth in the pool.
After a few laps, Jiang Cheng climbed out of the water.
Seeing Jiang Cheng on shore, Wang Yuyan immediately draped a bath towel over his shoulders.
Feeling Wang Yuyan's considerate gesture, Jiang Cheng smiled at her and said, "Manager Wang, thank you."
While covering Jiang Cheng with the towel, her hand accidentally brushed his firm abdominal muscles, causing a brief flutter of nervousness in Wang Yuyan's heart.
She glanced at the pool, masked her emotions, and replied, "You're welcome, it's my duty."
Although she has worked here for three years, the occupancy rate of Tingge Villa has always been very low.
After all, the price creates a barrier.
Usually, only one or two days a month see any guests at most.
If luck is on their side, occasionally a Tycoon might stay for two consecutive nights.
But over a year, the total number of serviced clients barely reaches a few dozen.
Guests like Jiang Cheng who book a whole week straight are exceedingly rare.
Wang Yuyan blushed, curled the corner of her mouth into a smile.
Unperturbed by her subtle feelings, Jiang Cheng walked straight to the lounge chair by the pool and settled comfortably.
"By the way, Manager Wang, do you have any particularly special but pricey dishes here?" Jiang Cheng asked while sipping champagne.
Hearing his question, Wang Yuyan quickly composed herself and adopted a more formal tone.
A suite as expensive as Tingge Villa naturally comes with top‑tier chefs.
If guests desire, the hotel's head chef can even come to Tingge Villa to cook on site.
After all, Tingge Villa has its own dedicated dining facilities.
Moreover, the menu prices here vary widely.
"We have a wide array of dishes, including Chinese, French, Italian, and Japanese cuisine. Aman is currently the most expensive hotel in Huaxia, and its restaurants belong to a high‑end tier. The Italian restaurant, in particular, is especially pricey. One of our more unique offerings is the Yellowlip Fish, whose flesh is naturally flavorful, expensive, and rare. It can be prepared in many ways; pan‑searing is a common method that best preserves its fresh taste."
Wang Yuyan continued earnestly, "We also feature Alba White Truffle, a specialty of ours. Similar to matsutake and porcini, it grows in Italy, is extremely precious, and is called the 'white diamond.' It can be used in salads, pasta, or paired with steak."
Jiang Cheng had heard of Yellowlip Fish; a single large specimen can fetch several million.
Alba White Truffle is even priced by the gram, sometimes costing hundreds of dollars per gram.
Calculating silently, Jiang Cheng realized he had finally found a use for his gourmet cashback card.
Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "Manager Wang, could you give me a massage?"
Seeing Jiang Cheng's subtly revealed eight‑pack abs, Wang Yuyan swallowed nervously and replied, "Certainly, Mr. Jiang."
She quickly placed her hand on his shoulder and began to massage him slowly.
Compared to Wang Yuyan's hidden thoughts, Jiang Cheng appeared much more serious.
At that moment, his entire mind was on the gourmet cashback voucher.
Just then, Yu Xiaoxiao walked in from outside.
Yu Xiaoxiao's arrival made Wang Yuyan's complexion flash an unnatural hue.
Even she herself didn't know why she felt that way.
Not only her, but Yu Xiaoxiao also cast a furtive glance at Wang Yuyan.
Hearing the footsteps, Jiang Cheng opened his eyes, saw Yu Xiaoxiao, and said to Wang Yuyan, "Manager Wang, thank you for your hard work, you may go rest now."
"Alright, Mr. Jiang, call me anytime you need anything," Wang Yuyan replied, nodded toward Yu Xiaoxiao, and turned to leave.
Watching Wang Yuyan's departing back, Yu Xiaoxiao gave a seductive smile, walked toward Jiang Cheng, stretched her leg, and sat directly on his lap.
At that moment, the two of them's flirtatious posture made Jiang Cheng, who was lounging in the deck chair, feel his heart race: "Xiaoxiao, how about we try a 'taste‑the‑turtle' move first?"
...After a little over an hour, Yu Xiaoxiao took the bathrobe from the side of the deck chair, wrapped herself in it, and then lay back in Jiang Cheng's arms.
Jiang Cheng stroked Yu Xiaoxiao's soft, smooth skin and said, "Xiaoxiao, if I were to start an entertainment company, could you help me?"
Yu Xiaoxiao looked up at Jiang Cheng and asked, "Start a company just for Su Wan?"
Jiang Cheng brushed Yu Xiaoxiao's nose and replied, "Hmm, but later there will be more than just her as an artist. I signed her partly out of curiosity, but the main purpose of the company is profit, so you don't need to overthink it."
Hearing Jiang Cheng say that, Yu Xiaoxiao stretched out her hand and hugged him tightly.
"Of course, no problem. If you need it, I can help you."
After several days of deep interaction, Yu Xiaoxiao had already developed different feelings for Jiang Cheng.
Seeing Yu Xiaoxiao's agreement, Jiang Cheng began to paint a rosy picture for her.
"Thank you, Xiaoxiao. I've decided: the entertainment company will be called Xingchen Entertainment, you'll be the manager, and salaries will be calculated at the industry's highest level. From now on, you'll have the final say on all matters."
Yu Xiaoxiao was startled by his words and looked at Jiang Cheng in surprise.
It meant she would go from operations manager straight to general manager.
One has to admit Jiang Cheng's big promises are quite effective.
Yu Xiaoxiao felt deeply moved at that moment.
"Jiang Cheng, you're really good to me."
"Hmm, these days I'll first register the company, then leave the site selection and all other affairs to you. I trust you."
Starting a company is tedious and troublesome; wouldn't it be nice to have a professional handle the management while you become a hands‑off boss?
"Don't worry, I'll do it well."
Jiang Cheng gazed at Yu Xiaoxiao's half‑biting, sexy red lips and couldn't help pulling her close again.
As a white‑collar lady, Yu Xiaoxiao learns extremely quickly.
The knowledge Jiang Cheng taught her, she mastered in no time.
Twenty minutes later, Yu Xiaoxiao grabbed a bottle of mineral water, rinsed her mouth, and coquettishly glared at Jiang Cheng, "You villain!"
Jiang Cheng chuckled mischievously, "You've had enough to eat, but I haven't even started yet."
After giving Jiang Cheng a dismissive look, Yu Xiaoxiao smoothed her hair… She stared at his handsome, flamboyant face and couldn't help reaching out to touch Jiang Cheng's cheek, "Good husband, drive a bit slower."
"That won't do, speed is the thrill. I'll take you to Mr. Gao's place soon."
The next noon, Jiang Cheng received a wechat message from Wang Zheng saying he had a sudden matter and couldn't keep the appointment.
Jiang Cheng wasn't bothered; he rode a rolls-royce from Luxury Hotel straight to the car show entrance.
It was already around two o'clock in the afternoon.
Seeing the sea of people at the entrance, he knew how lively this auto exhibition was.
After all, it's an international grand show, attracting crowds in wave after wave.
Even though not everyone can afford a car, that doesn't stop people from coming to look and gossip.
Whether it's watching luxury cars, beautiful saleswomen, or car models, it's all free entertainment.
Wang Zheng had already arranged tickets for Jiang Cheng to enter the exhibition last night.
After showing the ticket voucher, Jiang Cheng quickly entered the venue.
Looking at the promotional signs at the entrance, Jiang Cheng thought to himself, "Truly worthy of the Magic City Auto Show."
As Wang Zheng said, globally renowned car manufacturers were all present at this exhibition.
Not only Ferrari, Lamborghini, mclaren, and porsche, but even the relatively obscure pagani were on display.
Jiang Cheng strolled leisurely, taking everything in.
He was dazzled by the lineup: high‑spec Audi URUS, Audi RS7, mclaren's new GT, bmw M8 Thunder edition, Mercedes AMG GTR… Though these models and performances were impressive, their prices still didn't meet Jiang Cheng's standards.
Take the bmw M8 Thunder edition – a standard four‑seat comfortable sports car that hits zero‑to‑hundred in a strong 3.2 seconds, yet its 2.2 million‑yuan price tag was a deal‑breaker for him.
Mainly because it was too cheap!!
Jiang Cheng shook his head and left the Mercedes‑bmw booths, heading toward the crowded Ferrari area.
Even though he had just bought a laferrari yesterday, that didn't stop him from browsing the current stock.
When he reached the Ferrari booth, Jiang Cheng noticed a few acquaintances standing inside.
