Chapter: 2396
In sparsely populated Aurora, the park was still underdeveloped, making a variety of charming Little animals.
As they walked, various animals approached them.
Stefan had come prepared with bread and nuts, knowing these were approved foods for feeding the wildlife here. He crouched down and scattered the nuts on the ground.
A lively squirrel dashed forward, seized a nut, and then retreated a few steps before settling down to munch on it.
The squirrel's eating behavior was quite charming, and Raegan's eyes lit up with a soft smile as she observed. She watched the squirrel, the squirrel clutched the nut, and beside her, Stefan's gaze was intently fixed on her smile.
At first glance, Raegan appeared pure and beautiful, but those who got to know her discovered her many other admirable qualities, extending far beyond her outward appearance. She was exceedingly kind, unselfish, and always mindful of the elderly's feelings. She treated everyone with fairness, provided they weren't prone to mistreating others.
However, Raegan stood her ground against those who were malicious.
She could be gentle and sweet when the situation called for it, yet also strong and decisive when needed. She was the type of person who continually drew others in, making them appreciate her virtues more and more.
Noticing Raegan's enthusiasm for feeding the animals, Stefan offered her the remaining food. "Would you like to try?"
Raegan looked at the food, excitement evident in her eyes. "Can I really feed them?"
Some wild animals could be somewhat aggressive toward newcomers.
Raegan figured Stefan must be a regular visitor here, which explained the animals' familiarity with him. Even though she was keen to try feeding them, she hadn't suggested it herself.
“Absolutely,” Stefan assured her with a gentle smile. “The animals here are very tame, and the food I've brought is approved by the park staff, so there's no need to worry."
"Then I'll give it a try." Raegan took the bread from him, broke it into small pieces, and scattered them on a stone bench. Soon, a flock of birds swooped in and swiftly carried away the bread pieces.
The food vanished in moments.
They continued their walk around the park, and by the time they decided to head back, the air had turned cooler.
“Are your hands cold?" Stefan suddenly asked. He had noticed her fingers tucked into her sleeves.
The day-to-night temperature swing was significant, and though Raegan felt a bit cold, she preferred not to bother others. She smiled and said, “It's alright. We're nearly at the car."
To Raegan's astonishment, Stefan suddenly pulled out a pair of gloves from his pocket and helped her put them on. He said cheerfully, "I saw these at the store recently and thought you might need them in this chill."
Raegan examined the gloves, noticing their soft pink wool, clearly designed for a woman, and very cozy.
