Chapter 102 (2/2)
Anna looked up and said, ”anything, Alexei, I think this is husband and wife. You can tell me anything, if you like.”
Anything. It's a bit too big.
If this is the answer Karenin got at work, he would usually frown and ask his subordinates to reorganize the answer. But Anna is not his subordinate, he is his wife, is a very special existence that has never met. Lack of data to carry out analysis, can only move cautiously step by step, and sometimes, even caution can not be used.
This is a bit terrible for Karenin. There are no rules and no case studies. However, he thinks he can do well.
Therefore, Karenin carefully chose a topic.
”Would you still like to go to France with me in the afternoon?”
”Of course, how do you think I'm going to change?” Anna said happily.
”After what happened last night, I'm afraid you'll need some personal space.”
”No Anna said frankly, ”I want to follow you to France.”
”I see.”
Next, the restaurant was silent again, but this time Anna was no longer embarrassed.
Grachev arrived on time. He was a man in his fifties. His brown red hair was not gray. His appearance was neat and he looked very kind.
He was indeed a kind doctor and gave Anna an ointment to apply.
After the doctor left, there were only two of them left in the bedroom.
Karenin asked, ”do you want my name to be anushika?” The voice fell to the ground, and the ointment was handed to him.
”This is also a compulsory course for love. Increase contact, get familiar with each other, and then...” She didn't go on, she just lowered her head and laughed.
Although the carriage was waiting for a few years, it seemed that Lenin's carriage was still waiting for the spring to come.
He's married, and it feels good to be married.
”Yes. Mr. A. doesn't like people moving his desk, no matter who. ” ”As like as two peas Kalenin,” the housekeeper replied calmly.
”You are a good housekeeper.” Anna said Colney gave her a shallow smile to show that he accepted the compliment.
The dinner prepared by the cook was delicious, but Anna still refrained from eating more. She doesn't want to be fat. She is not used to the clothes here. Fortunately, she is slim. If she had to wear that kind of waist binding dress all the time like on her wedding day, she would have died.
After dinner, Anna is reading an English novel in her bedroom. It was obviously written by a woman writer, and some of the striking points were doubted to have been written by a transgressor.
At about ten o'clock, Karenin rang the bell and came in. I look tired.
In this era, aristocratic couples sleep in separate rooms.
”How about it?” Anna put down her book and went to ask.
”It's stable.” Karenin said, then saw Anna's appearance, he frowned slightly, ”you should be ready to go to bed, Anna, staying up late is extremely bad for your health.”
”But as far as I know, you don't get ready for sleep until half past ten every day.” Anna said with a smile.
Karenin understood Anna's meaning and said, ”I have to deal with all the documents before ten o'clock, and then keep reading for half an hour.”
Anna blinked. ”You can come here.”
”I mean,” she looked embarrassed, her eyelashes flickering, but finally she said, ”I wish you could sleep next to me, all the time.”
”I know it's not very appropriate, but I still think, since we are husband and wife, why do I have to share a room with my husband?”
Because I'm sorry, Anna finally spoke at a very fast speed. She went to the bedside and patted the four poster bed that could hold at least four people with one hand.
”You see, the bed is so big that we don't have to waste it.”She stretched out her hands and patted again, which was really silly.
”I don't snore when I sleep. I should, probably don't grind my teeth. Anushika doesn't say that I have the habit of talking in my sleep. The bed is very big and won't disturb you...”
She repeated again that the bed was so big that at last the sound became less and less.
”So, what do you think?”
Anna looked up at each other bravely. To be honest, she looked up suddenly with a ferocity. If Karenin had not known his wife well, he would have been stunned.
”I think,” Karenin hesitated for a moment, and then said, ”your reason seems to be very good.”
”Don't you think it's funny.” Anna asked dryly.
”No, maybe, I'm getting used to it.” Karenin said, his tired look still mingled in his eyebrows. But his eyelashes drooped slightly, and his lips with a faint smile, which made his normally cold facial features appear very soft at the moment.
Anna felt something scream in her heart, and then she found out she really said it.
”I think you're really cute now.”
Karenin gathered doubts in his blue eyes, and then became serious and serious. He stiffened his face.
”Anna, you can't use...”
But he didn't finish because his wife was putting her arms around him and kissing him on the lips.
”I won't tell anyone. You're mine.” She said with a smile, laughter let that beautiful sentiment fade down.
What mood is rolling in the heart, and finally with this smile and gradually dissipated.
”About,” Karenin pauses, as if to use a strong will to say that word, ”'lovely ', I don't want you to judge me, if you insist on that, I can't stop you, but Anna, I don't want you to judge me like that to the outside world.”
