Chapter 43 (1/2)

Karenin did not like to be too close to others. Apart from the necessary physical contact in politics, he always kept his only son in a state.

This may not be to blame for his parents' early death, but from the beginning of his own memory, Karenin's tolerance of physical contact was relatively low.

He also didn't like pets, and although he occasionally praised the shrewdness of dogs, he never wanted to open his arms and rub their heads or scratch their chins.

But strangely, he never rejected his wife's actions.

This immature, always over extroverted expression, when Karenin raised his hands around his wife's waist, his mind just turned around and said, ”it seems that I haven't experienced it for a week.”.

People get used to things, even Karenin.

Anna from those modified words of Karenin, very clever to grasp the point. She always feels proud and happy about this. Holding each other is like holding a very favorite doll, as tight as she can, as if to convey the weight of the week to each other.

”I've become your habit, haven't I?” Anna asked with a smile. The tail of her eyes was like a little tail with joy, dragging and dyeing a rainbow in her eyes.

”There's not enough evidence that it's a good habit or a bad habit.” Karenin said.

Anna protested: ”good habit, of course! The best one! ”

She didn't know if Karenin was smiling, but she felt that he was smiling.

”I'm afraid to disturb you. It's not like before, sometimes I need to practice tailoring. ” He explained why he didn't have dinner in her bedroom.

”They are tolerable, I think.”

”And,” Karenin added, ”it's not that you didn't disturb me before.”

Anna listened and giggled, not seriously considering her husband's accusation.

”I'll try to be quiet for a while.”

”It sounds like I'm the one with the bigger influence.”

”No, Alexis, you're a very lucky man, all right?” Anna let go.

She made a comparison: ”such a big fortune, I am your wife, this is your biggest lucky.”

Anna was just joking. Karenin's dissatisfaction was like giving her a pot of honey.

But after listening to this, her husband gave her a positive and serious answer.

”Yes.”

Happiness is so simple, now, because of this introverted and cold man's words, it does not have any decoration, but it makes people feel comfortable and warm.

A little shy, a little proud.

Anna put her hands behind her and said, ”it's not so good either.”

What a woman wants to hear, praises her beauty, her figure, her clothes

All external things that can make people think of beauty.

Of course Karenin knew this. Although he didn't do it often, he could do it well. That kind of hypocritical polite words, the tone of acceptance, casual can make women feel happy.

But the words at the moment are absolutely from the heart.

”You are very well, Anna.” Karenin said again, his tone was light, but his eyes were soft. The blue eyes seem to be hiding some kind of light.

It's not shy now, Anna thought. The heart is like in a hot spring.

”I'm happy. I hear you say that, Alexis. I think being a wife is just like a job. It needs to be recognized. The difference is that in work, you want to be recognized by your boss, while in marriage, you want to be recognized by your partner. ”

”You need my approval? Anna. ” Karenin asked.

”Yes. A wife always hopes to be praised and praised by her husband. Sometimes you don't say it, I need to guess, sometimes I can feel it, but if you tell me directly, I can feel happy more quickly. ” Anna expressed her ideas honestly.

”But you don't have to take it as an obligation. Love is not an obligation. You just have to be like this. Sometimes when you want to say it, just let me know. We have been married for more than three months, and I know more about you. In the future, we will learn more. ”

Anna took Karenin's hand and put it close to her cheek. She rubbed it and then gave a shy smile.

”I think you're good, too. It's silly to say that, but you're really nice. I always thought you were the best for me. Now, I have to say that I am the most suitable for you. Even if it was not so suitable before, it will always be more and more suitable in the future. ”

”I hope you can forgive me for some minor faults and willfulness sometimes. If I do something that you can't accept or don't enjoy, you can tell me. I will correct it. If I've got you into a bad habit and you're not ready to correct it, tell me I'll keep it She finally blinked her eyes. Her face was red and her eyes were shining at each other.For a long time, Karenin said honestly, ”it's not a bad habit, Anna.”

”It's not a good habit. As far as I am concerned, it is not a good thing to rely on a thing or a habit. However, if it is not rational enough, it is just a cowardly act to abandon or ignore it. ”

”You are my habit, Anna.”

”Good and bad cannot be judged.”

Karenin whispered, touching Anna's cheek with his hands and kissing each other.
