After lunch, Huo Yao went back to her room, leaving Song Ning and Huo Jinyan in the dining room by themselves.
Song Ning remained seated at the table, delaying the washing of utensils. She stayed there so that she could tell her husband about her conversation with her daughter which happened earlier in the kitchen.
"I think our daughter believes that we owe people money." Song Ning rested her elbow on the table, looking worried.
Huo Yao hadn't pressed her with too many questions post that. Nevertheless, Song Ning instinctively believed that Huo Yao must have misread some signs.
Huo Jinyan looked at her and asked. "Is it really that bad? She just happened to run into our accountants downstairs."
Song Ning shook her head. "No, that's not it. Her first question for me was if we had any guests over today."
