How Did I Become an F1 Driver?-Chapter 769 - 314: Small Gathering

So at this moment, meeting at Qin Miao's house, the conversation between the two wouldn't feel distant.

They started talking about Vassel's current health condition.

Seeing the two chatting happily, Qin Miao lost the desire to continue gaming with Leclerc.

Instead, after a while of chatting, Leclerc tossed the controller to Zhou Guanyu and said, "Qin Miao can't handle it, he decided to forfeit. Zhou Guanyu, you come, let's have a match."

Zhou Guanyu took the controller that Leclerc handed over, but he didn't dive in immediately. Instead, he went to the kitchen to greet Qimeng and see what's specifically on the menu for lunch today.

Only after that did he return to the sofa and began a fierce battle with Leclerc.

Qin Miao sat on the sofa, munching on seeds while giving remote guidance to the two.

Not long after, there was another knock at the door. When Qin Miao opened it, he saw Norris.

Since Norris also has a house in Monaco and, after finishing his race this week, was planning to stay here for a few days; since the timing and distance made sense, Qin Miao naturally invited him over.

Moreover, Qin Miao and Norris had quite a good relationship, so inviting him over at this time was perfectly appropriate.

After opening the door, they naturally exchanged pleasantries, and Norris also brought a gift.

However, Qin Miao didn't rush to open it. Instead, he smiled, accepted the gift, and jiggled it in front of Zhou Guanyu's face, seemingly casually.

Zhou Guanyu simply pretended not to see it.

Once Norris came in and saw Leclerc and Zhou Guanyu, he also said hello.

Familiar faces all around.

Norris wasn't a stranger to games either.

He often enjoyed streaming PUBG or other racing games, and of course, there was FIFA among them.

It's said that for a period, Norris was extremely addicted to FIFA on the PS5, even bringing the console to the paddock on race days and playing whenever he had a bit of free time.

Definitely a heavy internet addict.

So seeing Zhou Guanyu and Leclerc playing Street Fighter, Norris joined in as well.

Soon after, as a round ended with Zhou Guanyu killing Leclerc using Honda's headbutt, Norris immediately declared, "Die and change!"

Then Norris took the controller from Leclerc and began battling with Zhou Guanyu.

Qin Miao watched for a while and didn't join in but took out his phone to record the scene.

Believing that fans…

Just when he thought of this, Qin Miao noticed the large balcony of his house connected to the living room and the view outside.

Qin Miao went over and drew the curtains, while Zhou Guanyu and the others were engrossed in their game, not minding Qin Miao's actions.

Satisfied, Qin Miao recorded a round of Zhou Guanyu being beaten up by Norris.

After he finished recording, Qin Miao squeezed Zhou Guanyu aside and grabbed the controller from his hand, joining in.

The four of them huddled together and played games for about two hours.

Around eleven o'clock, Qin Miao paused the game and went to the kitchen to help Qimeng with prep.

At noon, with Qin Miao carrying a dish out from the kitchen and shouting to the four people on the sofa, "Lunch is ready!" the family feast officially began.

Qimeng made eight dishes, four spicy and the rest non-spicy.

After all, Norris, Leclerc, and Leclerc's brother Arthur weren't great with spicy food.

Since they were all guests at home, naturally they shouldn't be neglected, so a few more non-spicy dishes were made.

Quickly, everyone got to the table.

Everyone could use chopsticks, so there were no other worries.

Qin Miao opened two bottles of pine wine given to him by Bottas and started the meal!

...

"It tastes really good!" Leclerc said, somewhat awkwardly, as he placed a piece of winter melon in his mouth and chewed.

Judging by his action of puffing his cheeks but still continuing to chew, he probably meant it genuinely.

Zhou Guanyu had his eyes set on a plate of stir-fried tripe from the start. The bright red spicy oil paired with the black and white, yet chewy tripe made his mouth water, unable to stop.

Norris, on the other hand, had a fondness for Qimeng's plate of smashed cucumbers. Although there wasn't a shortage of chili on it, Norris still ate it with relish.

Even though he was constantly reacting to the spiciness, he didn't seem to want to stop.

For the five drivers, this lunch had surpassed both calorie and oil limits.

But it didn't matter, since Qin Miao didn't have these concerns, he could eat at ease, knowing he wouldn't gain weight no matter what.

They ate for over an hour, and by the end, there was only a little broth left, with the main dishes mostly consumed by the six people.

After eating, as there were other activities planned for the evening, they didn't rush to leave.

Before they had a chance to digest, Norris pulled Leclerc back to the sofa, but in the afternoon, instead of playing Street Fighter, Norris turned on FIFA.

The two began playing soccer again.

No doubt about the gaming addiction.

During the time Qin Miao washed the dishes, Zhou Guanyu, driven by curiosity, went to Qin Miao's racing simulator at home.

Unlike others, Arthur was still fighting his way through F3, under pressure, but not too much pressure.
