A Noble Marriage - Chapter 114
This is the burglar badge. This is Anna’s second train ride in this era.
At the first time, everything was going too fast and in a hurry, but now, despite the tight schedule, she felt as if her face could feel no water molecules in the air passing her nose.
This subtle sense of touch comes from her husband.
Like now, in this little box, Anna looks at her husband.
He sat more casually than at his desk, but compared with ordinary people, he was still decent, always maintaining the appearance of a government official.
“Do you have any questions? Anna. ” Karenin looked away from the documents and looked at Anna with blue eyes.
“No Anna smiles.
Karenin moved his eyes to his official document again, until five minutes later, he still felt someone’s eyes glued to him.
“Are you sure you don’t have any questions?”
“No Anna said, and then said, “maybe one.”
“You can ask.” Karenin pressed his finger on the page and raised his head slightly. His voice was quiet and his tone was not undulating, but it would not be hard. Maybe it was because his blue eyes under his long eyelashes were focusing on others, which did not mean to examine.
“I noticed you didn’t wear glasses.”
“I’m not nearsighted.”
“I,” Anna licked her lip and then laughed shyly, “I was just wondering what it would look like if you put on your glasses.”
“I don’t think that will make any difference.” Karenin dropped his eyes and said that the conversation was temporarily over.
Anna felt a little sorry.
She looked out of the window and held her cheek in her right hand.
They had been away from Petersburg for two hours, and the rolling hills were exciting at first, but now they were a little dull.
The sky is a light blue, against which some birch trees stand like sentinels. Although it is not very impressive now, it will be green and beautiful in spring.
She unconsciously folded her hands, side face, while tapping these dull scenes, while smiling.
Accustomed to the busy modern society, at the beginning of life let people feel a little helpless, but now, everything is very good.
What Anna didn’t know was that, despite her decision not to disturb her husband, it was clear that Karenin himself had been unable to concentrate.
His head slightly side to Anna’s direction, the high bridge of the nose is cut by the sun a delicate and elegant arc. The eyelashes were not thick or curled up, half closed, revealing the same light blue as the sky.
He looked at his fiancee for a long time and knew that she seemed to be asleep.
Karenin got up and put a flannel blanket over Anna.
As he sat down, he made sure that Anna would not wake up for a moment, and then he moved his eyes and concentrated on the document.
Anna didn’t know how long she had been sleeping. She woke up in a gentle shake.
“Am I asleep?” She tried to rub her eyes, but was stopped.
Karenin took out his handkerchief and handed it to her.
“Dr. Grachev told me that this would reduce my chances of being found by the disease.”
Anna took the veil, wiped her eyes and laughed, “he’s right. You have a good doctor. He’s great.”
Karenin didn’t say anything about this praise. He looked at the time on his pocket watch, then put down his official document and said, “we have to go to lunch.”
“Good suggestion. I’m just hungry.” Anna agreed with the proposal, and Karenin nodded and was more happy.
The dining box on the train is in the middle of the train. The passage is not big enough to accommodate two adults walking side by side. So Karenin walks in front. Some parents will hold the children’s hands to prevent these little monsters from running around.
Anna is no longer a child. Naturally, Karenin was not the kind of person who would take other people’s hands at will, but he did say a word when he got up.
“Follow me.”
It’s like honey, Anna thought, and followed her.
Because Karenin was not short and his shoulders were wide, Anna couldn’t see the whole scene clearly when he came to the front.
Some of her past experiences made her a little nervous about the unknown, but now, with a trusted person walking ahead, she found that the unknown was not so terrible.
They came to the middle of the train, and there are not many people eating yet.
Anna knew that Karenin did not propose to have dinner at this time by accident. Maybe he was used to it and found out the most suitable dining time.
“What would you like to have?” Karenin asked.
In fact, there are not too many kinds of local supply, but Karenin’s behavior makes people ignore this point.
Anna ordered what she liked, and noticed what Karenin ordered, and secretly wrote it down in her heart.After lunch, Anna took a bite, which was not delicious. She looked at Karenin and frowned slightly. No one is to blame. The ingredients are innocent, so are the chefs.
Anna thought that Karenin would throw away the undesirable lunch like those rich people, but Karenin did not.
He let his brow relax and stretch, still slowly and calmly cutting the food from his plate. Then he looked up at Anna and asked, “isn’t it not to your taste?”
A great feeling swept over Anna.
This move stems from Karenin’s not arrogant extravagance, as a wife, Anna felt a sense of pride. It’s like someone said, “if the person I love is a criminal, I don’t know what to do, but if the person I love is a noble person, I will be proud of him.”.
“No Anna said with a smile, enjoying her food as well.
She lied. The lunch itself didn’t taste good, but the elation could make up for it. When they returned to the box later, Anna told Karenin the truth.
“What else would you like to eat now?”
Instead of asking anything else, Karenin focused more on practical issues.
“I’m full now.” Anna said happily.
Karenin nodded and said, “if you don’t like it, you don’t have to force yourself, Anna.”
“But you don’t waste it, Alexis.” Anna points out this in a soft tone. “It’s a very good quality.”
“The taste of the food is important, but for me, the practicality of the food itself has satisfied me. For me, it doesn’t change much to continue eating this lunch, but for you, if you continue to eat it on the basis of not liking it, it becomes a mood affecting thing
Karenin’s serious words made Anna smile and bend her eyes.
“Why are you laughing?” Karenin frowned a little puzzled.
“Because of your sweet words.” Anna said, her eyes shining.
“No matter what, it doesn’t change my feeling that everything was not bad but good.”
“If you think so, all right.” Karenin nodded again and took out his document. Anna sighed in her heart again.
In the afternoon, Anna did not stare at Karenin any more. She took a book out and looked at it slowly. Around three o’clock, the waiter of the dining car knocked on the door of their box.
When there were still delicate and delicious refreshments on the clean table, Karenin pushed the cake towards Anna.
Make up for lunch.
“You don’t want it?” Anna asked. The dimples were already on the cheek.
“No
Karenin said succinctly. He picked up his own cup of black coffee, and Anna took a look at it and drew it back.
“I have to take a bite of the cake.”
The bitterness of black coffee is in sharp contrast to the sweet and greasy cake.
“Is it delicious?” Karenin asked.
“Delicious.” Anna nodded honestly. “It’s not a lie this time.”
Karenin nodded to show understanding.
With the unique aroma of black coffee and the sweet and greasy taste of cream, Anna decided to be more honest.
“Don’t you want to touch me?”
Karenin’s sipping action seemed to freeze in mid air. Then he put down his coffee cup, got up over the table top, across Anna’s side of the space, and as his fingers touched each other’s cheek, he asked, “may I?”
“Yes.”
Anna’s eyelashes moved quickly, but her words were firm.
This kiss is a little bitter and a little sweet. Anna keeps it in her heart and gives it a great place.
How to undress gracefully in front of the people you like?
Anna I didn’t think about it. What’s more, after saying this sentence, her husband I don’t seem to have thought about how to peel off your wife’s Nightgown gracefully.
“I think I’ll let anushka come and see for me.” Anna coughed and said.
“No need.”
Karenin stopped her, and then he coughed too.
“Don’t mind me.”
“I, I don’t mind.” Anna said dryly. Her fingers were on the ribbon of her nightgown, which had not been untied for a long time. Maybe the reality is more cruel than the ideal.
“My name is still anush…”
The voice has not yet landed, Anna wanted to turn around the action was stopped by Karenin.
“No need.” Karenin said again that her right hand held her wrist. It was warm and warm. Compared with Anna’s delicate skin, Karenin had a little thin cocoon on her finger. During the rotation, she gently rubbed the skin of her wrist.
“I don’t want you to call your maid.” Karenin said.Anna felt as if her heart was pounding, and then she could only lower her head and say another word.
