The sentence that would require a reader to make an inference about what is happening is:
Dani bit her lip and tensed her shoulders at the news.
This sentence suggests that Dani is experiencing some kind of emotional reaction to the news, but it does not explicitly state what her feelings are. A reader would need to infer her emotional state based on her physical actions.
