Chapter 1317 - 496: The Battle Is Imminent
Qin Miao asked somewhat bewildered, "You know I’m good at cooking, right? This shouldn’t be something surprising to you."
Leclerc explained, "I know you cook and it tastes good, but I didn’t realize that when you’re cooking in a restaurant, you have the kind of focus and dedication that you only have when you’re on the simulator."
Qin Miao chuckled, "Maybe I’m just naturally talented in this aspect. Let’s drop this topic and serve the dishes, the timing is just right."
"As you command, Chef."
"You’ll wash the dishes after dinner."
"Fuck!"
...
After serving the food, the four of them sat down at the dining table.
Although Prince Jacques was still unfamiliar with using chopsticks, the other three were quite experienced and didn’t find it a big issue eating with them.
Next came the obligatory praises.
Basically, everyone who tasted the dishes cooked by the world champion Qin Miao genuinely praised them for being delicious.
With the system’s support, Qin Miao’s cooking was already excellent, and adding his status as a two-time world champion, even if the food wasn’t good, people would subjectively feel it tasted great.
Despite being accustomed to compliments, Qin Miao couldn’t help but feel a bit proud facing Prince Jacques’s sparkling eyes and the amazed expression on the Princess’s beautiful face.
Besides, Qin Miao was more worried that if these two frequently came for meals in the future, it would be hard for him to have any peaceful days in Monaco.
Moreover, the fact that he could cook would soon be no secret; anyone with a slightly good relationship might start coming over for meals. That’s tough...
Setting aside Qin Miao’s concerns, the meal was quite enjoyable for the four, given the taste of Qin Miao’s dishes and the added prestige of his world champion title.
After dinner, the Princess looked at Prince Jacques with an empty bowl and wore a bright smile.
Despite his esteemed position in Monaco, Prince Jacques was still a child, a pampered one, with typical childish habits.
He frequently left food uneaten during meals.
But today was different; he finished everything in his bowl.
This surprised the Princess greatly; is the power of idols really that strong?
After the meal, Prince Jacques pulled Qin Miao curiously toward the trophy room in Qin Miao’s house.
Leclerc, meanwhile, kept the Princess company at the table.
"Hey, Qin Miao, where’s your world championship trophy from this year?" With lots of Winner’s trophies and second and third-place trophies on the honor wall, Prince Jacques couldn’t find the world championship trophy he wanted to see most.
Qin Miao, who was watching beside, explained, "That trophy is awarded at the FIA ceremony on November 10th next month. Each year, the world champion trophy is given out around this time."
Prince Jacques thought for a moment and then asked Qin Miao, "Can I go with you then?"
Qin Miao was momentarily stunned. Given his status, this little guy was certainly eligible to attend the ceremony, being Monaco’s heir. But it’s inappropriate to go with me.
He should go with his parents if he attends.
So after thinking for a while, Qin Miao said, "You have to see if your parents agree to take you. If they’re willing, I believe the FIA wouldn’t refuse the Monaco royal family’s request to attend."
"Okay..."
After the chat, Qin Miao showed Prince Jacques the photos taken recently by the team’s photographer.
By the time it was one in the afternoon, Prince Jacques finally left satisfied.
Once he left, Qin Miao collapsed onto the sofa, not wanting to move.
Leclerc looked at Qin Miao in confusion, "Why is Prince Yake so close to you? I don’t get it!"
Qin Miao couldn’t be bothered with this jerk; without him, he could’ve had a comfortable day of rest. Now, he’s been busy all day.
But Leclerc didn’t dwell on this topic long, as he soon received a call after dinner. When he hung up, he excitedly approached Qin Miao and forcibly pulled him up, "Let’s go! We’re going out to have fun!"
Qin Miao was speechless; dude, I don’t want to go out, I just want to lie at home for a while...
Leclerc saw Qin Miao lying on the sofa like a dead pig, completely unwilling to move, and used a tempting tone, "I’ve arranged something fun, you’ll definitely be interested."
Qin Miao didn’t even lift his head.
"Arthur, Norris, and Piastri will come too. I remember Piastri is your fan."
Qin Miao remained unmoved.
Leclerc gritted his teeth and said, "I’ll gift you a public version 4090."
Qin Miao instantly revived, jumped up, "Let’s go!"
Leclerc looked at Qin Miao, speechless.
Though Qin Miao won two world championships, which didn’t exactly land him on Forbes, he certainly achieved complete financial freedom.
