Is it possible that I didn't drink at all?

Xu Ning looked at the designated driver, who had a righteous expression and seemed to swear to fight against the ugliness of society to the end, and squinted slightly, falling into a brief silence.

This time, he really understood what the other party was going to do.

So, the sudden departure just now was to make 'him' drive while 'drunk'!

Then he would record and collect evidence of his drunk driving to extort him?

Xu Ning really hadn't expected the other party to come up with such a crooked idea!

Was this planned from the start, or was it a spur-of-the-moment decision after seeing him driving a supercar?

Whatever the reason, aren't you a bit too reckless?

Don't you ever think that someone who can drive a 50-million-yuan supercar wouldn't have a way to deal with you?

Even if he had given in at the time and given him some hush money, crushing him later would be as easy as crushing an ant.

And what made Xu Ning unable to help but snicker was that he hadn't drunk any alcohol at all!

He was just tired and didn't want to drive!

Sorry, it's probably going to be hard for you to get off lightly today!

Xu Ning's lips curved into an arc, he turned off the engine, got out of the car, and stood there quietly, watching the self-righteous designated driver.

"Didn't you have something urgent at home?"

"Why are you back?"

Seeing that Xu Ning wasn't furious but calm, the designated driver immediately misunderstood that Xu Ning didn't want to make a big deal out of it.

This also matched his expectations.

"I did have something urgent at home, so I was eager to go home just now!"

"But then I immediately got a call saying there was no rush, so I decided to come back and continue driving for you!"

"But I didn't expect you to completely disregard traffic rules and even dare to drink and drive!"

"Even if I left suddenly just now, you could have found another designated driver!"

"Do you know the consequences of drunk driving?"

"It's irresponsible to yourself and to society; if something goes wrong, it could lead to families being broken and lives lost!"

"Let me tell you, if you get caught drunk driving, a fine is a small matter; the key is having your driver's license suspended for six months."

"If it reaches the standard for drunk driving, your license will be directly revoked, and you'll also face criminal charges!"

"Tell me, how serious are the consequences!"

The designated driver had already put down his phone and was scolding Xu Ning, but then he seemed to be educating Xu Ning about the law.

However, he no longer actively brought up the matter of calling the Police that he had been emphasizing earlier.

This made Xu Ning even clearer in his mind; he knew exactly what he wanted to do!

This guy wouldn't actively bring up the hush money, because anyone with a bit of legal knowledge would know that's called extortion.

Only if the drunk driver actively offered hush money to avoid punishment, then he would face no consequences for taking the money.

Xu Ning smiled calmly, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Oh? The punishment for drunk driving is so severe? I really hadn't expected that!"

If you don't bring it up, I won't either; anyway, I won't let you have your way!

The designated driver thought Xu Ning hadn't understood his subtext and couldn't help but feel frustrated, so he could only continue to speak vaguely.

"I don't think you're someone who often drinks and drives; an occasional time might be forgivable."

"How about I don't call the Police and let you off the hook?"

When he said this, the designated driver paused, opened the designated driver APP on his phone, and deliberately said in a theatrical tone, "Oh, the orders tonight aren't good; I haven't made much money!"

He was practically openly hinting for a favor fee or hush money!

Xu Ning looked at the other party's clumsy performance and almost couldn't help but laugh out loud.

This 'vague' hint was really too obvious.

However, Xu Ning still pretended not to understand; he wanted the other party to say it explicitly.

This guy wanted to extort him; how could Xu Ning let him off so easily?

Not sending him in would be an insult to his performance.

"Not calling the Police?"

"Then thank you for your generosity!"

Xu Ning smiled, locked the car directly, and walked towards the hotel.

The designated driver was stunned, and his face immediately turned unpleasant.

Didn't you understand what I said?

Do you really think I'll let you off so cheaply?

What kind of beautiful fantasy are you naively dreaming of?

Although he didn't know if Xu Ning was deliberately pretending not to understand, if he just let Xu Ning leave, wouldn't all his plans for tonight be wasted?

So he quickly stopped Xu Ning, and his expression became fierce.

"Don't go!"

"I haven't finished speaking yet!"

"It's an undeniable fact that you were drunk driving, do you really think I'll let you off so easily?"

"Let me be direct, it's not impossible for me not to call the Police, but you have to give me hush money!"

"I won't say how much, but since you're driving such a nice car, you certainly wouldn't care about a small amount of money, right?"

"Spending a small amount of money to avoid drunk driving punishment, it seems like a good deal, doesn't it!"

He no longer pretended, directly laid everything out, and brazenly demanded money.

Xu Ning couldn't help but laugh out loud; the fox's tail had finally shown, hadn't it!

He was just waiting for him to ask for money!

He pulled out his phone in front of the designated driver and directly called Officer Wang, who he was already very familiar with.

"Officer Wang, I want to report a crime!"

"The designated driver I called is trying to extort me."

"My current location is..."

Officer Wang on the other end of the phone listened, and a strange and contradictory feeling arose in his heart, intensely strong.

The designated driver you called?

Aren't you the designated driver yourself!

Well, he felt he really couldn't understand the thought process of a rich second generation like Xu Ning.

And Xu Ning, are you really a Conan physique?

In just one week, how many times have you contacted me, a Police Officer?

Normally, what decent person deals with the Police every day!

However, since Xu Ning reported it, he should dispatch officers quickly.

So, without delay, he directly took two Auxiliary Police Officer officers and drove out of the Police Station.

Strictly speaking, the incident location was still not within their Police Station's jurisdiction, but they had to respond to such direct calls to the Police.

Moreover, they were willing to take on cases that didn't go through the 110 Police call center, because it would count as their work performance.

While Xu Ning was waiting for Officer Wang to arrive, the designated driver was a bit stunned.

He hadn't expected Xu Ning to call the Police so decisively!

Indeed, if that happened, he would be in trouble, but the problem was, wouldn't Xu Ning's drunk driving also be unavoidable then?

Did he really not care about having his driver's license revoked or even being detained and facing criminal charges?

"You're not really calling the Police, are you?"

"I didn't extort you; don't try to scare me!"

"I'm telling you, if you call the Police, it won't do you any good either!"

"Your drunk driving won't be avoidable then!"

He still held onto a last shred of hope, thinking Xu Ning hadn't actually made a call and was just trying to scare him.

Xu Ning looked at the designated driver, who was clearly flustered, with a half-smile, and slowly started laughing more and more heartily!

The designated driver felt a chill in his heart from Xu Ning's laughter, becoming increasingly timid.

"You..."

He was about to say something else, but Xu Ning interrupted him.

"Is it possible that I didn't drink any alcohol at all?"
