Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 4656

“It’s okay, I was asking too much.” 
Li Nuo felt a little disappointed, but also understood. 

If she were the second young mistress of the York Family, someone she didn’t know or understand at all, and asked to visit her home, she would have refused. 
“Li Nuo, are you free tonight? I’ll treat you to dinner to make it up to you.” 
Ning Tianlei felt guilty for not fulfilling Li Nuo’s request the first time she asked him, so he wanted to treat Li Nuo to dinner. He 
 
 
also wanted to test whether Li Nuo was interested in him. 
“Tianlei, this was an excessive request from me. You don’t have to feel guilty or compensate me. However, I’d still be happy to go if you treat me to dinner. Would you like to pick me up in the evening, or should I take a taxi?” 
Li Nuo didn’t own a car. She usually took the subway to work. It was convenient and there was no traffic. 
Dongguan was a big city, and during rush hour, the traffic was terrible. 
Li Nuo’s apartment was close to the subway entrance, so she took the subway to work quickly and conveniently. 
“I’ll pick you up.” 
“But it’s rush hour, so I might be late.” 
Li Nuo said with a smile, “How about you take the subway to pick me up, and then we can go out together.” ” 
Okay, then I’ll take the subway to pick you up after work. I haven’t taken the subway in a long time.” When I was in school, I often squeezed into the subway with my classmates. 
I miss those days. 
“See you in the evening.” 
“Okay.” 
The two ended their call. 
Afterward, Li Nuo sent a message to her best friend and old classmate. It read, “I asked Ning Tianlei for permission, just as you asked, to visit his sister’s in-laws’ old house.” 
“Ning Tianlei asked his eldest sister, but was rejected. Old classmate, do you think this means Ning Tianlei feels more than just friendship for me?” 
It turned out that Li Nuo was testing Ning Tianlei’s feelings for her. She had been in love with him for years. 
Back in school, Ning Tianlei was busy studying and working part-time, and she suppressed her feelings and became friends with him. She 
assumed his family wasn’t well off, but after graduation, she discovered he was the son of a wealthy family. She 
learned that his parents had both been convicted and sentenced to heavy prison terms, potentially preventing them from leaving the country. 
Li Nuo had never despised Ning Tianlei. 
However, she was too shy to confess her feelings, fearing she was being overly sentimental and feeling embarrassed if she was rejected. She also worried that if she was rejected, they wouldn’t even be able to be friends. 
She might even quit her job and leave Wiltspoon due to heartbreak. 
Honestly, she’d worked hard for years to finally achieve some success, earning a five-figure monthly income. Among her classmates, she was considered a success. 
She couldn’t bear to leave her job, and she loved the city of Wiltspoon. 
Li Nuo’s numerous concerns had prevented her from pursuing a secret crush on Ning Tianlei for years. 
A close friend, a classmate of hers and Ning Tianlei’s, who knew her feelings, offered her a suggestion: to test Ning Tianlei’s affections.
