Chapter 59 (2/2)
”I don't believe it, but thank you, Sasha. I'll only tell you that.” Anna said sweetly.
When the water boiled, Anna took tea and went to Karenin's study.
She got permission to knock on the door.
Different from the past, when Karenin saw her, he did not continue to immerse himself in his official business. Instead, he held the posture of holding the document with his fingers, looked at her with blue eyes, and finally asked, ”what's the matter? Anna. ”
” just a cup of tea for you. ” Anna showed her hand with her eyes.
Karenin stood up and said as he walked, ”I'll come.”
”You sit down and I'll bring it.” Anna said.
Karenin stood for a moment and then sat down.
Anna put down the tea, she still stood opposite, did not leave, and her hands on the desk, supporting, half leaning down, gray eyes wide open, seriously looking at her husband sitting opposite.
”What's the matter?” Karenin was slightly uncomfortable. Then he found that his wife was laughing, with stars in her eyes.
”I just discovered a wonderful secret.” She said, pretending to be mysterious.
”What?” Karenin frowned.
”I found a man who has been very nice to me recently.” Anna stood up straight with her hands behind her.
”Who?” Karenin's eyebrows curled up and his blue eyes looked at his wife carefully.
Anna felt that Karenin was carefully capturing her expression. Her heart was so happy, but she took out 12 points of endurance and did not laugh.
”I said, it's a secret.” She said on purpose. He even blinked pitifully.
”I can have a little secret of my own, right?” Then she added, ”until I'm willing to tell you, huh?”
The poor request was a soft threat.
Mr. Karenin, a senior Russian official, never accepted threats from others. Even if he was held against his head, he did not change his face. Even his brain was spinning rapidly, cooperating with the movements of his lips, he calculated the probability of snatching the □, and reversing the present unfavorable situation.
He has seen too many professional political enemies and killers. Threats are as natural as croissants and tea in the morning, but there is never a word that is really accidentally ”killed” in Karenin's heart. Gently hit the very deep soft rib.
His wife's words almost shocked Karenin.
He felt that sentence was like a curtain, which was quickly pulled down without warning.
This is not allowed by the rules.
The most cunning politician should have a reminder, not so suddenly deprived of a permit.
The rapid change in his heart was not deeply expressed in his facial expression.
From the ordinary people's point of view, the tall man was silent for only a few seconds, his sharp eyes sweeping his wife carefully, and then his reaction was just to purr his lower lip. Finally, he nodded slightly: ”nature.””We are husband and wife, and honesty is what we agreed to. But * is just as important. If you bring it up to me, I will naturally agree that this is your right. ”
If ordinary people hear this, they will be filled with joy and even pride. Look, how sensible my husband is. But when it came to Anna's ears, it was like being cracked by a private translator.
Anna could almost imagine that in that place, the embarrassed gentleman controlled the trembling tone in his cool, self-contained voice and said, ”well, if that's what you want, you can take it.”
”I really won't miss this one.” The villain stressed, ”after all, you only gave me such a pass temporarily. Legally, it belongs to private property, and the gift is not permanent. And I am a citizen with a strong sense of contract and law. Of course, I will not take it seriously. When I was deprived of this right, I understood that it was just normal collection and return. It has nothing to do with my own morality. ”
”It is normal, logical, and does not imply any personal emotions.”
After feeling this, Anna felt that she had done too badly.
Her original high interest in the eyes changed, became guilty, she felt that she had done a bad thing. She made a self righteous joke with a serious person.
She was almost overindulged.
”God, I'm sorry, it's not true, I just want to say, that's you, Alexis.”
”Everyone can see how good you are to me, but I'm not the first to find out. When I learned about it, I really felt very happy, so I couldn't help but want to see with my own eyes how much you care about me Anna explained.
She stepped forward and gently held Karenin's hand, apologetically and shyly, and said, ”well, you'll forgive me for my ecstasy, won't you?”
”You will, won't you?” She put on that pathetic expression again.
Karenin closed his eyes and finally said, ”I hope I will not.”
”It's not interesting.” He disguised his joy with a look of reprimand.
”Yes.” Anna nodded sharply, very clever.
”I know it's bad, I won't be So often. ” She said at last and cunningly gave herself a little space, and then got a gentle frown.
Things have slipped to a point where Karenin can't control it.
There are many reasons, mainly his wife.
Karenin looked at the wife who was smiling at him cleverly and thought: it seems that it is more difficult to understand a wife than any political problem.
The reason is that we can't control it.
The most fundamental reason is that the latter uses the brain, while the former is the heart.
It seems that this episode did not bring much change to the daily life of the Russian high-ranking couple, but after a careful taste in the future, we will find that it even means a great progress.
Because it's important for both men and women to understand that you may never know what the other person wants, but you can try to give, and let him understand what you're paying for.
A long time later, after studying the official's history, one could not help but sigh at his luck.
A man like Karenin, who is not used to speaking out his love, happens to have a wife who will tolerate his shortcoming.
She may not be perfect, and there are many obvious shortcomings in her careful counting, but at least in this respect, no one is more suitable for this strict and rigid gentleman. ( )
