Chapter 116: Chapter 89: Onstage and Behind the Scenes (Part 2)

So it seems like Mr. Lawson fell in love with Qin Miao at first sight, perceiving the overflowing talent in him and believing his future to be limitless.

But actually, Lawson’s high regard for Qin Miao back then was purely the inevitable outcome of thorough consideration, in-depth investigation, and weighing the pros and cons.

After writing this line, Lawson picked up the landline phone once again.

He searched among his contacts, then dialed the number.

When the call was connected, the other party surprisingly greeted, "Good afternoon, Mr. Lawson. Is there anything I can do for you?"

Lawson, different from his earlier mild and reserved chat with Qin Miao, straightforwardly said, "Fini, you guys are training at Silverstone today, right? I have a kid here who can’t leave the UK recently. Arrange an F3 car for him, help with the vehicle’s logistical support and car tuning. Of course, send me a copy of the practice data; I need it."

"No problem, Lawson."

"I gave him your number. He should contact you tomorrow, so wait for his call. Hanging up now."

"Goodbye, Lawson."

After hanging up, Lawson folded Qin Miao’s file and put it back into the file cabinet behind him.

Lawson had at least ten similar folders behind him like Qin Miao’s.

Although the ultimate decision to sign Qin Miao resulted from careful consideration, when signing him, Lawson felt like scratching a lottery ticket.

So Lawson’s attention to Qin Miao was just that, since compared to Qin Miao’s lottery ticket that may or may not win, Mick, the guy who graduated with his father’s legacy, was his genuine focus.

Even if Mick’s talent does not match his father’s, his father Schumacher’s connections within the paddock are significant.

Whether it’s Mercedes’s Toto or Ferrari’s Bi, both have deep connections with his father, let alone those power holders behind these big teams.

Even the Ferrari youth training system was instigated by Mick’s father.

For the child of this founder of the old Ferrari royal youth training system, Ferrari’s youth training naturally takes special care.

...

After confirming that he can get a car to practice with, Qin Miao felt relieved.

However, Zhou Guanyu watched Qin Miao’s actions and inwardly felt puzzled.

Is there really a girl like Qimeng who only cares about her boyfriend’s well-being and completely disregards her own feelings? Where did Qin Miao find such a rare girlfriend?

If possible, give me one too.

Qin Miao didn’t notice Zhou Guanyu’s strange look and asked Qimeng, "Anyway, I can’t train now. After I finish training today, can I go online?"

Upon hearing this, before Qimeng said anything, Zhou Guanyu inwardly sweated for Qin Miao.

Damn, this friend of mine seems to have low emotional intelligence. It’s understandable you usually need training, leaving no time to accompany your girlfriend — everyone understands.

But you clearly have rest time in the afternoon, so instead of thinking about spending the free time to stroll around with your girlfriend abroad, you say in front of her that you want to go online?

Salute to you, Qin Miao, what a man!

I wouldn’t say more, but Zhou Guanyu thought if he was Qin Miao’s girlfriend, upon hearing those words, he’d have to teach Qin Miao a lesson about what a fierce woman is.

To his surprise, Qimeng wasn’t angry upon hearing Qin Miao’s words but nodded happily and said, "Sure, I’ll go with you. I’ve never been online in the UK."

Zhou Guanyu: ???

No wonder they can be together, a perfect match!

"Let’s go together then," Qin Miao said with a smile, "I need to use the restroom."

After Qin Miao left, Zhou Guanyu curiously looked at Qimeng and couldn’t resist the impulse to ask, "Qimeng, I want to ask you a few questions."

Seeing Zhou Guanyu’s tangled look, Qimeng chuckled.

She knew why Zhou Guanyu behaved this way — no doubt because he found her overly pampering Qin Miao unbelievable.

"I know what you want to ask, maybe you think I spoil Qin Miao too much. But I like it this way, and so does he."

After Qimeng’s non-explanation explanation, Zhou Guanyu frowned again, then said, "I don’t understand, but I’m deeply shocked."

Qimeng asked back, "Going online later?"

Zhou Guanyu, still tangled a moment before, immediately responded when hearing Qimeng’s words, "Yes, brother, I’m wicked awesome at AWP. Yesterday we were exhausted from staying up all night; today I will definitely take your boyfriend to big earth!"

...

After eating, since they needed some time to digest, Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu didn’t start the physical training immediately.

Instead, they went to the internet cafe and skillfully booted up three computers.

Originally, Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu thought Qimeng entering with them would probably just watch videos or browse foreign Twitter to see the world.

What they didn’t expect was, after both opened Steam and entered CSGO, Qimeng sitting beside Qin Miao also opened her Steam and entered CSGO just like them.

Qin Miao raised an eyebrow, "Mengmeng... how come you play CSGO?"

Zhou Guanyu also leaned over, though he said nothing, Qimeng clearly saw a strong curiosity in his eyes.

Qimeng smiled mischievously, "What? As a girl, can’t I play CSGO? It’s abroad; I could accuse you two of gender discrimination for that!"

"You can, but..." Zhou Guanyu frowned again.

"Why does a girl like CSGO type games I don’t understand? But I’m absolutely thrilled! Add me as a friend; your boyfriend will show you what a real expert is," Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu’s reactions were entirely different.

At that moment, Qin Miao felt like, discovering suddenly one day, your girlfriend no longer loves cosmetics and bags but starts loving Gundam models, figurines, and esports.

Old lady turning into the sheets, really made grandpa laugh.

Soon, however, the expressions on Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu’s faces solidified.

Because while adding Qimeng as a friend, Qimeng opened her system inventory.

The most prominently displayed was a whole row of seven black storage cases.

Beyond this, the entire page was knives.

Though these knives were the cheapest ones, they had good feel.

Like heavily worn-out butterfly knives, Karambits, and M9s.

Even with the current market price, a butterfly knife would be at least around 1100, but quantity triggers quality, and at first glance, the entire page in Qimeng’s inventory was full of various knives.

One row of eight, and a total of four columns, 32 slots, except for those 7 black storage cases, the rest were all knives.

Even if the average price of a knife is 800, on calculation, Qimeng’s page is at least starting from 20,000.

Moreover, looking at the slider on the far right, it’s clear Qimeng’s inventory doesn’t stop at this.

Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu watched Qimeng’s terrifying inventory and took a deep breath,

"Trade dog?" Qin Miao blurted out, seeing Qimeng’s inventory.

Qimeng’s face instantly turned dark, intending to flaunt in front of her boyfriend when she heard Qin Miao,

and lightly knocked on Qin Miao’s head, "If you can’t say something nice, you could choose not to speak!"
