Chapter 1727 - 1813: Extortion
Su Xuan actually doesn’t have many requirements for cars. Since they sent it over, Su Xuan accepted it without hesitation.Now the driver for hire wouldn’t find driving this car stylish, because Su Xuan came to this area of the city in his car originally, and there are many cars here. Since he’s a driver for hire, if he even scratches the car a little, it wouldn’t be a joking matter. It could be a scratch worth tens of thousands.
So it’s no wonder the driver for hire is so nervous while driving this car. He drove out of the suburbs slowly and, under the GPS guidance, quickly approached about a thousand meters from the entrance of Heroic Manor.
Just then, the driver for hire’s phone suddenly rang. He stopped the car and answered it, looking a bit uneasy as he spoke to Su Xuan.
"Sir, I’m really sorry, my wife just got into a car accident. I need to hurry and see her. Could you drive the rest of the way yourself?"
The man pleaded, knowing that Su Xuan is generally agreeable, especially since they were already at the gate of Heroic Manor. Su Xuan nodded in agreement, but as the driver got out, Su Xuan frowned. Because at the moment he got out, something didn’t feel right. Although the driver had managed to deceive Su Xuan with his expression, Su Xuan still sensed a different atmosphere, albeit subtly.
Besides the atmosphere, the key thing Su Xuan thought about was why he didn’t hear any voice on the phone when the driver was talking.
Su Xuan noticed he was using a fake phone brand, which is typically known for loud volume. With Su Xuan’s hearing, he should have been able to hear, but he didn’t!
At this point, Su Xuan saw a white sedan rapidly approaching from not far away. His mouth twitched, thinking, damn, are you trying to play the badger game with me? You’ve got some nerve!
"Oh..."
Suddenly, Su Xuan clutched his stomach, his face turning red!
"Honey, what’s wrong!"
Xue Mengxue asked worriedly.
"I might have eaten something bad, my stomach hurts. Little brother, take me to the open area ahead; there are too many cars here. I’ll drive myself back once I feel better!"
Su Xuan said, watching the young man’s expression subtly. Sure enough, when he was done speaking, the young man’s expression was a bit unfocused, as if Su Xuan had interrupted his thoughts, not knowing what to do. But soon, he regained his anxiousness and quickly drove the car to take Su Xuan to the open area ahead.
As he drove again, Su Xuan unleashed two waves of Dark Strength; one wave stuck the brake pedal, while the other forcefully pressed the accelerator. Holding Xue Mengxue in his arms, a massive layer of Primordial Qi formed a protective shield around them.
"Don’t be afraid!"
Su Xuan reassured, while the driver for hire panicked completely as he realized the brake wouldn’t work and the accelerator was floored.
"Boom!"
A loud crash sounded, and the over seven million yuan Lamborghini crashed head-on into the guardrail, sending it flying and crushing the car’s front.
Su Xuan’s mouth formed a mischievous smile, while the driver for hire was already pale-faced.
"What’s the matter!"
Su Xuan said angrily as he got out with Xue Mengxue, while the driver was utterly stunned. It was completely unexpected.
"Boss, I... I’m sorry..."
At that moment, the driver was genuinely scared and stunned.
"No need for apologies!"
Su Xuan said as he dialed a phone number, and after about two minutes, the Winner brought out a dozen shirtless men holding knives.
Seeing these men, the driver nearly wet his pants, his eyes filling with tears, while Su Xuan had no pity for him. Xue Mengxue initially wanted to speak, but knowing Su Xuan, he always has a reason for his actions.
At first, Su Xuan was very courteous to the driver, assuring him with words that if the car gets scratched, he wouldn’t let him pay.
Su Xuan always empathizes with those struggling at society’s bottom, knowing he could earn more than their hard work even by doing nothing. So, Su Xuan feels more sympathy towards them.
"Oh my, Boss, you just bought this car! What’s going on here?"
"It got rammed. As men, you must take responsibility for your actions. I won’t exploit you; my car itself costs over seven million, and this damage easily requires around twenty thousand. Will you help me get it fixed or give me cash? By the way, my wife was startled just now. I won’t ask for much, just one hundred thousand yuan; in total, thirty thousand, Winner you keep an eye on him, I’m taking my wife inside first!"
Su Xuan said, taking Xue Mengxue back, her face filled with curiosity as she looked at Su Xuan, puzzled.
"This guy is trying to play a badger game with me!"
Su Xuan explained softly.
"Badger game? What does that mean?"
Xue Mengxue asked curiously, a bit confused at the explanation.
"It’s a scam for money. I drank today, and if I drove myself just now, there was a car ready to crash into me because I was drunk driving. By then, even if I was right, I’d be wrong. If handled privately, they wouldn’t let us go for less than tens of thousands, given our car. If it’s not resolved privately, drunk driving becomes a criminal case, and I’d likely face detention, still ending up paying!"
"Oh, how can people be so bad!"
Xue Mengxue was completely stunned, unable to believe such evil exists in the world, as he always thought most people are good, with true feelings in the mortal world. He didn’t expect the driver to be so wicked.
"This is human nature; silent dogs often bite the hardest!"
Su Xuan smiled faintly. He shows no sympathy for such people, believing there are many ways to make money, even robbery preferable over playing the badger game.
Because the badger game preys on human kindness, the fact that this guy dared to try it on him condemns any leniency from Su Xuan.
