Earn another 9 million!
When Xu Ning heard her words, he almost couldn't catch his breath and nearly fainted.
Good heavens!
No wonder she started hitting me without a word!
Seeing the middle-aged woman pick up a cup from the coffee table, ready to throw it, Xu Ning quickly waved his hands repeatedly.
"Don't throw it!"
"I'm just a designated driver!"
At this moment, Xu Ning was truly caught between laughter and tears.
If I had really wronged your daughter, I'd deserve a beating!
But I don't even know your daughter's name, and I almost got beaten black and blue by you. Who did I offend?
"Designated driver?"
This time, it was the middle-aged woman who was stunned.
For a moment, she didn't quite react.
What does that mean?
He's not a scumbag trying to trick my daughter?
Xu Ning saw her confusion and quickly continued to explain.
"Your daughter drank too much. I'm the designated driver from the restaurant, and I brought her home!"
"I don't even know her!"
His expression was as innocent as could be.
He was speechless encountering such a situation!
This time, the girl's mother understood, her expression sheepish and a little embarrassed.
However, she looked at her daughter, who was passed out drunk, then at the tall and handsome Xu Ning, and her eyes visibly filled with regret and disappointment.
Such a handsome young man, why wasn't he her daughter's boyfriend?
"Uh... I'm sorry, young man, Auntie misunderstood!"
"Are you alright?"
Xu Ning shook his head, a wry smile on his face. All he wanted now was to collect his money and leave.
The girl's mother took out a hundred yuan and handed it to Xu Ning, saying with a hint of apology, "Designated drivers are usually fifty yuan within the city, right? Take this hundred; no need for change!"
Xu Ning took the money and thanked her, not too surprised.
He had learned from chatting with the other two designated drivers that this job often received tips, as many bosses didn't care about such small amounts.
However, just as Xu Ning was about to leave, the girl's mother asked again, her tone filled with hope.
"Young man, how is your relationship with your girlfriend?"
"Is there any chance of you breaking up?"
"If you do break up, would you consider my daughter?"
"Let me tell you, she's really excellent, definitely a good girl!"
"Why don't you leave your phone number? Come over and visit often."
...Her enthusiasm was just like when she had first mistaken Xu Ning for her daughter's boyfriend.
In her eyes, a steady and handsome young man like Xu Ning was definitely a good match for her daughter.
Even if there was only a tiny chance, she couldn't let it go.
Opportunities are for those who are prepared.
Her daughter might not be serious about it, but as a mother, she had to be!
Xu Ning was a little overwhelmed.
"Goodbye, Auntie!"
If he didn't run now, he'd really be forced to stay as a live-in son-in-law!
After finally escaping from the aunt's enthusiasm, Xu Ning couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead.
He was almost caught and made a live-in son-in-law!
It wasn't easy to escape!
At this moment, however, the system's notification sound also rang in his mind.
"Congratulations to the host for working hard and earning 90 yuan. Ten million times amplification reward: 9 million yuan."
A 100 yuan income, minus the 10 yuan commission for the restaurant, meant a net profit of 90 yuan.
After amplification, it was 9 million yuan!
Even though he had already earned 4 million yuan from his first job, Xu Ning was still incredibly surprised by the astronomical income.
He couldn't help but have a ridiculous thought—if he kept doing this every day, he would eventually become the richest person!
After calming down, seeing that it was still early, Xu Ning took a taxi back to the private kitchen.
Taking two more orders was no problem at all.
Although it wasn't the weekend today, the restaurant business was good, with many business banquets.
The other two designated drivers successively got orders and went to work, and Xu Ning quickly received his third order.
It was a young man, clearly very drunk, slurring his words.
"I'm not drunk!"
"I can still drink!"
"Don't you believe I'm not that drunk... If you don't believe me, let's find a bar and have another round!"
Xu Ning finally managed to help this guy into the car, spending a long time talking to find out where his home was.
He couldn't help but wipe his sweat, lamenting how difficult the designated driving profession was.
Designated drivers always deal with clients who have been drinking, and a large percentage of them are heavily intoxicated.
Once a person drinks too much, alcohol affects the brain, and they might not even know what they've done.
Not to mention the difficulty in communication, all sorts of bizarre incidents could absolutely drive a designated driver crazy.
At this point, Xu Ning finally somewhat understood the system's warm reminder.
Perhaps it wanted him to experience the joys and sorrows of life while making money!
Now, he was already experiencing it.
Sitting in the driver's seat, with his seatbelt fastened, Xu Ning took a deep breath.
He just hoped to safely take this drunk young man home without any trouble.
The young man's car was nice, an entry-level sports car, most likely bought by his parents.
Sitting in the driver's seat, Xu Ning was excited; what young man doesn't love a sports car!
However, he wouldn't forget his duty; obviously, now was not a good time to experience the thrill of a sports car.
The designated driver's principle is to safely deliver the client home, so naturally, he wouldn't drive aggressively.
So, he drove very carefully and steadily throughout the journey.
However, his driving style was criticized by the young man sitting in the passenger seat.
"Can't you drive better?"
"Such a good car, and you're driving it like a snail!"
"Dare you go a little faster?"
His tone even carried a hint of disdain.
"Sorry, sir, my job is to get you home safely and smoothly. Safety first."
Xu Ning held the steering wheel, completely unmoved, and said in a calm tone.
Perhaps accustomed to driving fast, seeing other cars constantly overtaking them, the young man was incredibly uncomfortable, almost having a physical reaction.
"Brother, I'm begging you, drive faster!"
"You're driving like a turtle, I feel so bad!"
Xu Ning glanced sideways at the young man, noticing that he indeed looked distressed to the point of being fed up with life, so he slightly increased the speed.
At least this way, they wouldn't be easily overtaken by cars behind them.
The young man was delighted!
"Faster!"
"Even faster!"
He continued to urge Xu Ning.
But this time, Xu Ning refused to accelerate any further.
The young man became anxious, then suddenly his eyes darted around, a grin spread across his face, and he had an idea.
"Brother, how about we play a game?"
"From now until my home, for every car you overtake, I'll give you an extra 10 yuan."
"For every car that overtakes you, 10 yuan will be deducted instead."
"Do you dare to play?"
The young man looked at Xu Ning excitedly, trying to provoke him with his words.
Xu Ning looked at the young man sideways with extreme suspicion, finding it hard to understand his mentality.
10 yuan for each car overtaken?
It's a good thing the road isn't far, otherwise, I could overtake cars until you go bankrupt, believe it or not?
Although Xu Ning couldn't claim his driving skills were superb, nor would he call himself an experienced driver, he was, after all, driving a luxury sports car, and other cars on the road usually kept their distance.
So, wouldn't overtaking be easy?
