Twilight was upon us, the city lights were just starting to twinkle.
The city at night was bustling and lively, a mixture of various passersby filled every street, their laughter and chatter echoing throughout the city.
Flossie Wright sat on the stone steps of the park, Flynn Reid was beside her. Their postures, surprisingly, were strikingly similar – both propped their chins on their hands while gazing into the distance. In their bright eyes, there was a myriad of starlight reflecting and passerby’s shadows constantly moving.
Next to the steps grew a tall iron tree, its wide and long leaves hung down in layers, gently swaying with the evening breeze above their heads. The far-off streetlight beams were mostly blocked by the tree, causing the pair to appear to be hidden within the varying depth of shadows amongst the trees. Even the passing crowd wouldn’t bother stealing glances at them.

In front of them was a carefully designed artificial lake, with white lamplight illuminating all around the lake. A long bridge stretched across the middle of the lake, the lights along the bridge forming a dazzling dragon-like path. It was a grand and spectacular sight, a feast for the eyes.
A stone railing, carved with intricate blooming flower patterns, ran along the lakeside, adding more charm and elegance to the lake’s scenery.
This beautiful scene seemed to be the ideal place for a romantic rendezvous. On the brick paths, there were mostly couples, occasionally younger students passed by joyously. The scene was completely unlike that of the Forces.
"Here, take this."
About two meters away, a little girl with braids had been lingering there for a while, finally, she jogged up to Flynn Reid and offered him a lollipop.
After hesitating for a couple of seconds, Flynn did not take the lollipop.
Only when the little girl was about to pout and burst into tears, did Flynn Reid swiftly take the lollipop and politely thanked her, "Thank you."
"Can I be your friend?"
Upon hearing this, the little girl instantly lit up with happiness, looking expectantly at Flynn Reid, pure joy and anticipation in her bright eyes.
Flynn Reid looked instinctively towards Flossie, not to seek her approval, but instead displayed an expression of helplessness, as if he was also troubled by such situations.
With a squint in her eyes, Flossie propped her chin on her hand, looking at him with interest, indicating that he should solve the issue by himself.
Considered good-looking, Flynn resembled Glenn Hutchinson in every way, causing Flossie to disbelieve that he is Glenn’s biological son. However, Flynn was undoubtedly handsome, not portraying the mature, rugged handsomeness like Glenn, but a delicate and exquisite type of beauty. His eyebrows and eyes seemed to have been brushed with ink, portraying an inherent, moving handsome charm. His youthful appearance was so beautiful that it could melt hearts.
This appearance should belong to a lively and adorable child.
Nevertheless, he was, after all, the one who had to call Glenn Hutchinson "Daddy". He indeed had grown up to inherit Glenn Hutchinson’s strict character.
No matter what he did, there was a ceremoniousness in his demeanor. He always sat straight and was very polite in front of others. However, after finishing his polite greetings, he would keep a cool and straight face, which was always helpless to others.
After a while, while Flynn Reid was frowning, considering how to refuse so gently, the little girl’s radiant smile seemed to falter, giving the impression that tears were about to burst out again. His words of refusal on the tip of his tongue turned to agreement.
Once again having her request agreed upon, the little girl was simply over the moon with joy. Immediately, she grabbed Flynn Reid’s hand and started pulling him forward.
Among his peers, Flynn Reid was considered strong, but he still let the overjoyed little girl pull him a few steps forward before he managed to halt.
