Chapter 40: Let Lu Xia and Huo Yao get in touch
Being noticed by his daughter, Song Ning coughed dryly and said, "Nothing, I just want to ask what kind of friends you are going to dinner with tonight, are they your classmates?"
That's what you were asking.
Huo Yao shook his head, "No."
"Male or female?" Song Ning asked again cautiously.
Huo Yao looked at Song Ning with clear eyes, and his voice was calm. He answered patiently: "He's a man, a neighbor who used to live next door. I helped him before, and I happened to meet him today, so he treated me to a meal."
When Song Ning met his daughter's candid eyes, he suddenly felt a little ashamed for some reason. He was ashamed of the dirty speculations in his mind.
Touching the tip of her nose uncomfortably, Song Ning didn't ask any more questions in the end, and just said in a gentle voice: "So that's how it is. Don't think I'm annoying. I'm just worried that it's unsafe for a girl like you to be outside too late."
Although Huo Yao didn't know what Song Ning wanted to say, she probably guessed it a little bit. After a pause, she just responded very obediently: "I know."
Hearing this well-behaved voice, Song Ning once again felt ashamed in his heart, and hurriedly said: "I am tired after a day of classes. Go back to your room and take a shower and rest early."
"By the way, Mom has heated up some milk for you, so remember to drink it when you bring it up."
As Song Ning spoke, he quickly walked into the kitchen, took out the milk from the warming cabinet and handed it to Huo Yao.
"Okay, thanks mom."
After a while, Huo Yao came upstairs with the milk. Song Ning let out a long sigh only when her figure disappeared at the stairs.
After walking back to the living room and sitting down next to her husband, she said with a guilty conscience: "I am really not a qualified mother. How could I doubt that my daughter has a problem with her character?"
Huo Jinyan patted the back of his wife's hand and said, "I've told you before, you should give your daughter a little more trust and not let your imagination run wild based on what you hear."
Song Ning glared at him unhappily, "I was misled by the boss! He called me today and told me to pay attention to Yaoyao's friendships, so I... forget it, I'll call the boss now and ask him why he has such a big problem with his sister!"
Seeing his wife's angry look, Huo Jinyan shook his head helplessly and stopped her before she could make the call.
"The relationship between Yanxi and Yaoyao is not good to begin with. Are you trying to make the misunderstanding between them worse by calling them to question them?"
Song Ning held the phone for a moment, and then threw it aside without making any calls. He said with a slightly troubled look, "It's difficult."
"I don't think it's a big problem. Yaoyao has only been back for a few days, and they don't know much about each other. Let's take it slow."
Compared to Song Ning who thinks too much, Huo Jinyan obviously looks at things much calmer.
Song Ning sighed again and leaned limply on the sofa for a while. Suddenly she thought of something and sat up straight again. "I almost forgot that Xia Xia has a good relationship with the boss. I can ask her to help bring them together."
Hearing this, Huo Jinyan squinted at her and said disapprovingly, "Have you forgotten that the conflict and misunderstanding between the boss and Yaoyao arose because of the mention of Xia Xia?"
"Of course I haven't forgotten this. What I mean is, Xia Xia has a gentle personality and happens to be studying at No. 1 Middle School. If we can let her interact with Yao Yao more, wouldn't their relationship naturally ease a little?"
As an old mother, Song Ning felt that she was worried to death.
