How Did I Become an F1 Driver?-Chapter 880 - 349: Going Home for the New Year
After circling around Switzerland for a while, Qin Miao returned to France with Zhou Guanyu.
After getting off the plane, Zhou Guanyu, carrying gifts prepared for Qimeng and the three elders at home, was about to head out of the airport when Qin Miao stopped him: "Where are you going?"
Zhou Guanyu was stunned: "Aren't we going to your place?"
Qin Miao nodded: "Yeah."
Zhou Guanyu was even more puzzled: "Then why are you stopping me? Shouldn't your place be outside the airport from there? Or do you have another route?"
Qin Miao pointed at a distant helicopter and said: "Lock's, we'll take this directly back."
Zhou Guanyu: …
"Awesome!
I've realized, are you some kind of reincarnated cyber succubus? How come you can borrow anything? Whether it's a plane or a helicopter, haven't seen anyone who's close to you that hasn't been mooched."
Zhou Guanyu complained as he walked towards the helicopter. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Qin Miao helped Zhou Guanyu pull the suitcase and said while walking: "It's normal, if your next season's result is like mine, you'll find people eager for you to owe them a favor when borrowing things.
Also, is it possible my charisma is astonishing?"
"Forget it, I don't like borrowing other people's stuff, if I really want something I'd just buy it myself.
Besides, I've discovered you're getting more shameless."
"Get lost!"
…
As they chatted, they arrived at the helicopter.
After opening the rear cabin door, Zhou Guanyu placed his gifts inside, and Qin Miao also put Zhou Guanyu's suitcase in. Once everything was stowed, Qin Miao reminded Zhou Guanyu: "Put on noise-cancelling headphones, buckle up, I'll go find the ground crew."
Zhou Guanyu nodded, put on his noise-cancelling headphones expertly, looks like Zhou Guanyu had flown in a helicopter before.
Then Zhou Guanyu waited on the plane for about five minutes, and just as confusion set in wondering where Qin Miao was or where the pilot was.
He saw Qin Miao signing a form handed over by the ground crew, then shaking hands with the crew before heading towards the helicopter.
Zhou Guanyu scooted over to make room for Qin Miao when he came aboard.
Then, in Zhou Guanyu's two parts confusion, five parts puzzlement, and three parts shock, Qin Miao opened the cockpit door of the helicopter and plopped down in the pilot's seat.
Then as Zhou Guanyu's gaze grew more horrified, Qin Miao expertly buckled up, released the rotor brake, turned on the power, activated the fuel pump, then turned the rudder pedals and collective throttle lever in all directions to check for anomalies.
Qin Miao completed all the pre-flight checks and preparations in just half a minute, then turned to glance at Zhou Guanyu to ensure his seatbelt was fastened before starting the engine.
Everything happened so quickly, Zhou Guanyu was still stuck in shock yet the helicopter's engine had already started.
Then Zhou Guanyu watched the rotor speed up through the window, and the noise inside the aircraft grew louder. Zhou Guanyu's face grew paler.
Then Zhou Guanyu saw Qin Miao's lips move, saying something. After a while, Qin Miao pulled the collective lever, and the helicopter lifted off.
And Qin Miao wasn't doing a newbie's slow ascent, once airborne at around 15 meters, he pulled the collective full throttle.
At this moment, the G-force on Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu was at least 1.9.
The helicopter rapidly flew away from the airport.
Then Zhou Guanyu wanted to say something to Qin Miao, but the noise inside the helicopter was too loud to be heard.
But having driven F1 racing, Zhou Guanyu's ability to think in tense situations remained, so he soon calmed down, since the aircraft hadn't shown any anomalies so far, except during takeoff, the flight attitude remained stable throughout.
Quickly, Zhou Guanyu also realized, damn it looking at Qin Miao's actions... he seems to know how to fly a helicopter! He damn even exudes an expert's confidence.
When did he learn how to fly a helicopter?
And Zhou Guanyu also realized, Qin Miao, with a home and family, and whose F1 historical status is higher than his own, wouldn't gamble his life and mine as a joke.
So this was probably Qin Miao deliberately messing around, this cheeky fellow always manages to give him some little "surprises" at unexpected times.
And calming down, Zhou Guanyu quickly pulled down the mic from his noise-cancelling headset and said over the helicopter's intercom: "You CQND Qin Miao, you scared the shit out of me.
Also, when did you learn to fly?"
Hearing Zhou Guanyu's profane rant, Qin Miao remained unfazed, calmly responding: "Learned after winning the championship, surprised?"
"You damn, surprised? When you started the engine I thought you were going to go down with me in anger after seeing me unbox a brand new Miami in CSGO."
After the rant, Zhou Guanyu paused.
What did Qin Miao just say? Learned after winning the championship?
How long has it been since Qin Miao won the F1 World Championship? Qin Miao was crowned on December 12th, 21, today's date is January 29th, 22.
Damn, a month and a half!
Even if Qin Miao got the pilot's license on the day of winning the championship, it's just a month and a half!
