Anna blinked. It would be a shame to cry now.

She moved her calf to signal Karenin to let go. Then she bowed her head and kissed each other, sincerely thanking him.

”Thank you. Thank you for everything you've done for me.”

At this time, if you are not polite, it would be too much of a violation. Only a kiss can convey each other's feelings.

After dinner, Karenin wanted to give an opinion on what Anna had said before, but the latter shook his head.

”Don't worry. You need a rest today.”

Instead of evading the servants, Anna took her husband's hand and did not allow him to refuse and took him into the bedroom.

”Now we don't talk about anything. I hope you can rest early and I will accompany you.”

She looked up at each other and said, gray eyes convey a stubborn mood.

”If you wish.” Karenin said that he was like temporarily giving his own pace to his wife to wash and prepare to go to sleep according to her wishes.

After the candle was blown out, Karenin realized how early he was in bed today, less than 8:30, when he would normally deal with business in his study.

”No business tonight.” His wife reminded him. Then suddenly he lifted it up a little thankfully, at least not being treated as a baby when he fell asleep.

”Can I stick to you?” Across the bedding, from the low air came his wife's soft voice.

Karenin moved and drew the other side.

Anna nestled in Karenin's arm. She had a lot of questions to ask, but she also felt that it was better to let her husband rest now.

”Good night, Alexis.”

”Good night, Anna.”

Karenin closed his eyes, in the dark, the intimacy between the skin is softer, like the October evening wind, with a certain intoxicating breath, soothing the soul.

After a long sleep, Karenin felt something touching him. Subconsciously, he opened his eyes and saw a familiar smile.

”Good morning, Alexis.”

Karenin tilted his head slightly and found his wife was holding her cheek with her hand, and the other free hand was still outside his cheek finger.

Black curly hair, a little rough and messy, after a night's sleep, the cheeks become pink and tender. The color of the lip is more gorgeous. When speaking, it opens slightly, revealing a few small shellfish teeth in the middle, which is very crystal clear.

This is the most beautiful scenery Karenin has seen in the morning in 32 years.

Anna blushed when she saw the man's blue eyes staring at herself and muttered, ”I woke up and saw you still next to me, so I couldn't help touching your eyelashes.”

After that, she said, ”I can't blame you. Your eyelashes are as long as girls.”

”I'm a man, Anna. I'm not going to look like a girl anywhere.” Karenin said he got up, but did not get up immediately. Instead, he leaned against a pillow and let himself lie half down.

Anna also followed her action, happy in her heart, because of Karenin's behavior of lying in bed.

She never hid her emotions in front of her husband, so the happy expression was completely on her face.

”I think it's more like the second day of marriage.” Anna said with a smile, looked at Karenin, then drew back her eyes and laughed.

Karenin said softly, ”I think it should be different.”.

”What?”

”Nothing, Anna. We can talk about what you said yesterday.” Karenin changed the subject to avoid Anna's further entanglement. He will tell her about it later, but now, it is too early.

When Karenin thought this way, he also took a look at his wife who was smiling innocently. Seeing each other's smile, even he himself could not help but cocked up a little corner of his mouth.

”I think that Mr. Gorman must have his own ideas to insist that Mr. prokhov did it.”

”In fact, I think so.” Anna said she was thinking with her eyes down, ”but I don't know why Mr. Gorman did it.”

”Maybe to make him better off.”

Anna looked suspiciously at her husband, who explained, ”yesterday I happened to be dealing with something that might have something to do with Mr. prokhov.”

”Spring is coming, Anna, the port trade will become more developed. More sailors will be recruited. Mr. prokhov has a good opportunity, and you should know that the tailor's business is not for him
