If she had not seen this document in her daughter's room today, she would not have known that Huo Yao had done so much behind the scenes.
The Song family was not a big deal, but Song Ning was worried about her daughter's close relationship with Huo Changfeng.
Huo Yao had expected Madam Song to ask about the Song family, but it turned out to be this. She contemplated for a few seconds before she replied honestly. "He never told me anything about the Huo family."
All he did was give her a stack of documents about the Huo family's assets.
"How do you explain this document?" asked Song Ning.
If her daughter did not know about the Huo family, how could she have gotten Changfeng's men to get this document?
This brat!
"Pay up," said Huo Yao calmly. She leaned back on the couch without explaining further.
Song Ning wanted to ask her more questions, but Huo Jinyan, who was sitting next to her, stopped her. She looked at him and sighed inwardly.
It was hard to guard against the people around you.
No wonder he had disappeared without a trace during this period of time.
Huo Yao sneaked back to her room after dinner. There were a bunch of Physics questions waiting for her to solve.
Before long, there was a knock on the door. Huo Yao put down her pen and walked slowly to the door. She opened the door slightly and heard Huo Yulin's cold voice before she could poke her head out to look.
"Mom and Dad are in their room."
Huo Yao coughed. She straightened up and immediately opened the door. "Brother Yulin, you haven't slept yet."
"Uh huh." Huo Yulin handed her the ginger sugar water.
Huo Yao took it quietly. The moment she took a sip, she heard Huo Yulin's voice.
"Are you going to take over the Huo family's businesses in the capital?" Huo Yulin's eyes landed on Huo Yao's face.
Huo Yao could fool her parents, but not him.
Huo Yao nearly choked on the water. "Ahem..."
"Don't be surprised. I know you have your own plans. It's just that the Huo family has a lot of connections. If you aren't careful..." Huo Yulin paused. "Anyway, I don't want you to get involved with it."
Although he didn't know what Uncle Changfeng had revealed to his sister, he only had this one sister.
Huo Yao could tell that Huo Yulin was being serious. She held her cup and replied. "I know."
Huo Yulin couldn't guess what his little sister was thinking. He raised his hand and stroked her head. "Rest early."
Huo Yao nodded and said obediently, "Brother Yulin, you should rest early too."
Before long, Huo Yulin went back to his room. Huo Yao stood at the door for a while with a deep look in her eyes before she closed it.

Two days passed quickly.
At the Pharmaceutical Association.
Old Wang had just hung up the phone with the contact person from the foreign medical institution. He had been busy with the matter of the medicinal herb warehouse for the past two days and was almost overwhelmed with anxiety. His face looked even more haggard.
The assistant beside him handed him a cup of warm water. "President, what did they say today?"
Elder Wang only put down the glass of water. "I still don't agree to extend the time limit."
When the assistant heard that, he frowned and said, "President, I feel that there's something strange about this matter. Logically speaking, our Pharmaceutical Association is the biggest supplier of medicinal ingredients. We've worked with them a few times in the past. There's no reason for us to not discuss this matter."
Old Wang narrowed his eyes. "That's what bothers me too. Oh yes. How's Vice-President Qin doing? Did he find out anything?"
