Chapter 2 (1/2)
”The day after tomorrow, I will officially visit.”
The man said that, what else can Anna do, can only smile and nod.
They are not going to announce it on the spot now because Karenin said it would damage Anna's reputation.
Reputation, yes, this man takes it very seriously. It's a small stereotype, but it doesn't hurt.
”I'll be waiting for you the day after tomorrow.” Anna said.
Karenin nodded slightly: ”tomorrow I will send someone to deliver the letter of visit. I should have been a week ahead of schedule, but considering that I would not be in Moscow for long. I mean, if you think it's a good time to get married, I'll have to go to France on business for a month the next day
”I think the sooner the better.” Anna blinked and then asked, ”if you're going to France, can I follow you?”
”It is not without precedent. Yes, if you like. It's just, ”Karenin pauses.” I still think that such a hasty marriage will make you uncomfortable. ”
”No, not at all.”
Anna put her hands on her cheek, and she always seemed so happy, as if she were not making an impulsive decision, as if they had known each other for a long time.
”I'd love to follow you anywhere.” She whispered deliberately, in a seductive tone.
Karenin coughed a little unnaturally.
”In fact, I mean it. Considering that you and I are going to travel from Moscow to Petersburg after we get married, it may be uncomfortable for you to stay alone. ”
”I like your idea.”
Anna praised straightforwardly. ”I want a husband to think about his wife at any time and express that he needs her.”
After Anna said that, she saw the man staring at her for a while. She was not afraid or shy, but Frank. At last, she laughed again.
”I see.”
What she did not know was that after her first request to Karenin was not met, the gentleman had always taken her words to heart. In his well-organized mind, she constantly revised some rules and ideas because of her fantastic ideas, so that the people of their two eras were able to keep consistent.
And Anna doesn't know all this now.
”In the end, maybe you'll call me Anna instead of miss oberonski?” Anna licked her lips and asked again, which fully showed her stubborn character.
”As I said before, I will change my name only when God has confirmed that they are the closest beings to each other.” Karenin said quietly. Then he stood up, approached Anna, took the back of each other's hands and gave a kiss.
”Please be ready, miss oberonski.”
After confirming one thing, Karenin was the kind of person who would not retreat, and his momentum that he could not retreat in politics was unconsciously put into the present day.
He finally took a look at Anna, slightly thicker than the upper lip of the lower lip gently pursed, eyelashes droop, raised the blue eyes like a low-key gem, so easily hit her heart.
”I will.” A smile rose from the corners of her mouth, she replied.
Anna was sitting in the carriage with her brother and sister-in-law, Tao Li, who had been married two months ago.
Tao Li is the eldest daughter of the family of the Duke of sherbatsky, who is a very famous family in Moscow. It is also a well-off marriage. Like other political marriages, husband and wife do not come together because of love, but they still have a good life.
”I find you're in a good mood, Anna. Have you had any fun?” Asked Tao Li.
Before she got married, she was worried about whether she could get on well with her sister-in-law, but later she found that she was too thoughtful. Her husband's sister was a gentle girl. There has been a change in her character since she got better, but skyward says it's better. Because obviously, Anna became more cheerful.
”Yes, tell me what happened to you, Anna.”
Skyward blinked his sister's gray eyes. He was not thirty years old. He was well proportioned. He was peaceful and friendly.
”I don't want to say, tomorrow, you will know.” Anna blinked.
”We are so curious about you.” Tao Li smiles.
”If she's not willing to say it, then we shouldn't be questioning any more, honey.” Skywalker and Tao.
