How Did I Become an F1 Driver?-Chapter 133 - 97: Boss Zhou’s Generosity

After Lubos left, Qin Miao looked around the room and asked Qimeng, "How does it feel? Is there anything else we need to add?"

Standing next to Qin Miao, Qimeng also scanned the room: "Haven’t found anything missing yet. Let’s settle the stuff first, and I’ll help you buy whatever’s needed later." 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Qin Miao nodded, and then they got busy.

Although Qimeng would soon need to return to China due to visa issues, Qin Miao, because of his contract with Ferrari as a junior training driver, his visa was already converted into a work visa through Ferrari’s efforts, allowing him to stay abroad long-term.

Technically, Qimeng could also live with Qin Miao in Italy as his girlfriend, but things and relationships back home couldn’t just be abandoned, so Qimeng still needed to go back.

So for this move, Qimeng mainly focused on organizing Qin Miao’s clothes and stuff in the room.

For instance, Qin Miao’s racing suit, the helmet given by Zhou Guanyu, and the white helmet worn and signed by Leclerc.

Then there were some everyday clothes. Qimeng quickly sorted these out.

Since starting tomorrow, Qin Miao’s food intake would be strictly monitored, he wasn’t very enthusiastic about training today.

Thus, Qin Miao, who had been busy all day, took a rare lazy day off from training to help Qimeng tidy up the house.

While tidying up, Qin Miao’s phone rang.

He picked it up to see it was Zhou Guanyu calling.

"Hey, Old Zhou." Qin Miao answered the phone.

On the other end, Zhou Guanyu’s voice sounded a bit annoyed: "Why haven’t you called to check in? I almost thought you disappeared..."

"Cursing my plane to crash, eh?" Qin Miao retorted with sarcasm, "You’re like instant noodles without flavor packets!"

Zhou Guanyu, rolling his eyes up to heaven on the other end, changed the subject to business: "Speaking of business, how’s the situation over there now? Have you started the job yet?"

"The official start is tomorrow. For now, Ferrari has just arranged a physical trainer for me. He took me to the Ferrari employee dormitory, visited the museum, checked out the factory, and I even ran into Leclerc outside the factory. After the physical check-up tomorrow, they should test my personal skills, and that’ll be my official start." Qin Miao briefly recapped the day’s events.

"You met Leclerc?" Zhou Guanyu sounded surprised, "Isn’t the German Grand Prix happening the day after tomorrow? Why is he still in Maranello now?"

"He rushed to the Ferrari factory, claiming to be working there, probably on new car parts for the German Grand Prix, I guess." Qin Miao speculated briefly.

Zhou Guanyu joked with a laugh, "Now that you’re part of Ferrari, that kind of guess will hardly get you far inside Ferrari."

Qin Miao didn’t care, "I just joined, you know? They can’t expect me to go all out for Ferrari on my first day, right? Cut the nonsense, what do you need me for?"

"Gaming!" Zhou Guanyu got to the point.

"Come on, log in!" Qin Miao didn’t hesitate.

However, after searching around both bedrooms and checking the storage-like closet, Qin Miao clicked his tongue in annoyance, "About that... Old Zhou, uh, Ferrari didn’t seem to get me a computer..."

Zhou Guanyu’s voice on the other end noticeably paused, then said with patience, "I’ve already logged into the game, and you’re telling me this now?"

"Couldn’t help it..." Qin Miao shrugged, "Looking at everything Ferrari prepared in the dormitory, with all the essentials so in place, I instinctively thought they would prepare a computer too. I didn’t expect they’d miss that, so you can’t blame me, blame Ferrari for being stingy!"

Seeing an opportunity, Qin Miao’s eyes lit up, "Besides, I have only RMB on me, and unfamiliar here, I wouldn’t know where to buy a computer... How about, hehe... My buddy Yu wouldn’t have the heart to see little Qin without games, right? Plus, I’m fine without games, but my buddy Yu playing games without his wingman wouldn’t be enjoyable, would it?"

Zhou Guanyu immediately figured out Qin Miao’s ploy: "Dream on!"

Qin Miao wasn’t bothered at all, "Don’t be so distant. I’m not asking much, just a 2080TI and a 240HZ Zowie monitor, and the rest of the parts you can decide, Yu."

"2080TI??? Why don’t you just rob a bank? I wouldn’t even install such a good graphics card on my computer!" Zhou Guanyu couldn’t hold back, complaining furiously over the phone.

"We’re buddies, chill!" Qin Miao started deflecting.

Zhou Guanyu wished he could fly to Italy and kick Qin Miao right then, but after a while, he still said, "Send me your address and house number."

Hearing Zhou Guanyu’s response, Qin Miao’s face lit up with joy, "Alright, thanks for Boss Zhou’s gift. Boss Zhou is awesome, generous, immortal, and enlightened!"

Zhou Guanyu’s mouth twitched like crazy, regretting now that he just wanted to call Qin Miao to game together, but somehow ended up getting him a computer as well...

"By the way, make sure the graphics card is the full-blooded ROG, you know, the Republic of Gamers one..." With this last comment threatening Zhou Guanyu’s blood pressure further, Qin Miao decisively hung up the phone.
