Chapter 129 - Bonus Chapter 129: Champion

"You're too famous, aren't you?"

Watching Mark get recognized and receive applause from the entire venue, Hisch's emerald eyes rippled.

Originally, Mark might have only been somewhat famous in Wolfsburg, recognized on the streets.

However, with his explosive performance in the World Cup, Mark had already become a household name throughout Germany!

After all, the day after the World Cup final, his photo graced the front pages of all major sports sections!

He was far more popular than Götze was back then!

Although his true intention wasn't just the race, and he had a beautiful woman by his side,

Mark was also captivated by the F1 Grand Prix proceedings.

Right at the start of the race, there was a collision.

Felipe Massa, in third place, and Kevin Magnussen, in fourth, collided while vying for Turn 1. Massa, cutting in from the outside, had the middle of his car hit the front of Magnussen's car. Massa's car was flipped into an aerial somersault, landing and immediately retiring from the race, while Magnussen was able to continue.

Subsequently, the safety car was deployed.

Everyone could only slow down and follow behind the safety car, with no overtaking allowed.

At this moment, Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton, from the UK, had already climbed from 20th to 16th place.

After the safety car exited, Hamilton began his overtaking spectacle. This future F1 king carved his way through the field, overtaking car after car until he reached second place!

His performance at the hairpin turn, where Hamilton simultaneously overtook both Kimi Räikkönen and Daniel Ricciardo, was particularly spectacular.

Seeing this series of maneuvers, Mark couldn't help but exclaim, "It's truly you, old man Liu…"

As a competitive sport that heavily relies on car performance and driver skill, F1's visual appeal certainly can't compare to football.

However, the Speed and passion of race cars on the track are also something football cannot match.

Ultimately, Nico Rosberg of the Mercedes team started from pole position and easily claimed the championship.

Valtteri Bottas of the Williams team secured second place, making it onto the podium for the third consecutive race.

Hamilton, who started from 20th position, put on a superb overtaking show and clinched third place.

This first date also allowed Hisch, who had never been in love, to experience Mark's captivating charm.

Mark was not only young and handsome but also witty and humorous, and his attention to small details made her feel the thoughtfulness and consideration of this big boy.

The distance between the young man and woman also significantly shortened during this date.

After the Grand Prix award ceremony concluded, Mark specifically went to the Mercedes team and found Rosberg, who had won this leg of the championship.

When the German Team was training in Italy, this guy had visited their training camp.

So, the two could be considered to have met before.

"Mr. Rosberg, we meet again!"

"Indeed."

"Congratulations on winning the championship."

"It's just a small leg of the championship, incomparable to your world cup trophy."

"Oh, speaking of which, I haven't had a chance to thank you yet…"

Hearing Mark say this, Rosberg was momentarily stunned: "Thank me?"

"It must be that you, the champion, brought us good luck, which is why we were able to have the last laugh in Brazil!"

Upon hearing this, Rosberg was first taken aback, then he reacted and immediately burst into laughter: "Hahaha, you flatter me too much…"

"Rosberg, don't be so formal, just call me Nico. All my friends call me that."

The two, separated by ten years, exchanged a few pleasantries, feeling as if they had met too late.

And upon seeing Hisch beside Mark, Rosberg raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Mark, your girlfriend looks familiar. I think I've seen her in some fashion magazine…"

"That's not surprising, she's a very excellent model."

"Oh, no wonder. My wife also loves fashion, and there are fashion magazines at home,"

"Esther, this is Nico Rosberg. And this is Esther Hitsch."

"Hello, Mr. Rosberg."

"Just call me Nico."

After a brief greeting, Mark also tactfully took his leave.

However, before leaving, the two champions also exchanged contact information and took a photo together.

It was already ten o'clock at night when they left Hockenheim.

Mark also drove the girl back to her hotel.

And on the way back to the hotel, the girl remained silent, her thoughts constantly swirling: "He didn't deny that I'm his girlfriend just now!"

"Does this mean he really wants to pursue me?"

"If he confesses to me, what should I do? Say yes? Or should I not agree yet?"

It wasn't until Mark noticed the girl's silence and asked her that he interrupted her thoughts: "Esther? What are you thinking about?"

"Ah?!"

"I saw you didn't say a word after getting in the car, and I thought you were afraid I was taking you to some desolate wilderness, preparing to call the police…"

Hearing Mark's joke, Hisch also smiled, "You're exaggerating too much…" After a pause, the girl said, half-seriously, half-jokingly: "I was just thinking, us going out like this… does it count as a date?"

After speaking, the girl also glanced at Mark, seemingly observing the changes in his expression.

And Mark, who was driving, didn't hesitate at all, immediately replying: "Of course it does!"

This generous and firm answer made Hisch's favorable impression of him increase by a few points.

"We're here…"

"Thank you for inviting me to watch the race. I had a great time today."

"Then shall we go out again next time?"

"Sure!"

"Good night then!"

Watching Hisch get out of the car and walk towards the hotel entrance, the girl suddenly turned back and waved at him.

Mark also got out of the car and waved back, not driving away until he saw Hisch enter the hotel, still feeling a lingering reluctance.

Although he didn't get a kiss or a hug from the girl at their parting,

This date trip still made his heart flutter a little.

The key was having a beautiful woman accompany him; looking at Hisch's lovely face, which was sometimes cute, sometimes charming, and sometimes cold and glamorous, no matter what they did, it made him feel happy!

No wonder men are lustful.

How could one not be lustful in the face of such beauty?!

However, just as Mark drove away from the hotel, little did he know that their parting had already been fully observed by a black Santana parked not far away.

In the driver's seat, a young man held a single-lens camera, repeatedly pressing the shutter button at Mark's black Beetle.

Watching the car drive away, the man finally put down his camera, a lingering smile on his lips: "What a pity, if I could have captured them walking into the hotel together, I would have definitely made a fortune!"

"Or… has he already noticed someone tracking and secretly photographing him, so he plans to leave first and then come back later?!"

Thinking of this, the man's eyes lit up, and he began to mutter to himself: "It must be so!"

"It's truly you, you're simply a genius!"
