Chapter 838 No Need For Words
“I’m so sorry that he nearly hit you! My son deserves a beating!” the boy’s mother began to apologize profusely.
Luna turned around and said with a smile, “It’s fine. Just be more careful next time.”
“Yes, of course.”
After talking to the boy’s mother, Luna looked at Steven and realized that he had been staring at her, and his strong arms were still around her.
She bit her lip and looked elsewhere before saying, “Mr. Steven, I’m fine now. Aren’t you…”
Steven finally regained his senses and reluctantly released her.
“Okay.”
“Thanks for your help just now.” Luna moved a little away from Steven and continued, “If you didn’t grab me in time just now, I think that child might have hit me.”
“You’re welcome. I’m glad to be of help.”
After their bodies came into contact earlier on, both Steven and Luna suddenly went quiet.
Luna pursed her lips and focused on the colorful fish.
On the other hand, Steven was concentrating on her with a smile on his face.
There were many times Steven wanted to hold her hand.
Unfortunately, he had yet to succeed.
When Steven was younger, he had dated quite a number of women.
However, after several failed relationships, Steven started to ridicule himself.
What’s the point of having so much experience with women?
With Luna, he felt like a fool who was in love for the first time. The thought of holding her hand made him so nervous.
The two of them spent the entire afternoon in the aquarium.
Seeing the selfie booth right at the exit of the aquarium, Steven suggested, “I guess you have never taken a selfie before?”
“No,” answered Luna honestly as she shook her head.
“Then, let us take one together.” Steven smiled gently and continued, “I think they will use the ocean theme for the background. We can take a photo as our souvenir.”
“I… I don’t really…”
Most of the time, Luna would be diagnosing patients with her grandpa in town and seldom took photos. That was why she felt awkward about it.
However, under the insistence of Steven, she still followed him into the photo booth.
Both their faces appeared on the computer screen immediately.
Luna was not sure how to pose, so she only stared into the camera and tried her hardest to smile.
When Steven saw that, he could not help but say, “To be honest, you look a little silly.”
“Silly?”
“Yes, you must do something like this!” Steven immediately made a face at the camera.
Luna had always had preconceptions about the Bowers family. When she saw Steven making the funny face, she could not help but burst out laughing.
She had never expected Steven to be so hilarious.
When Steven saw Luna laughing so happily, he started laughing too.
The two of them took a total of eight selfies and made two sets so that they could have one set each.
When Luna saw the photos and glanced at Steven, who was standing next to her, her grin widened. She only suppressed her smile when she realized she was getting carried away.
Later on, both of them went to watch the sea animals’ performance.
At the end of the trip, Steven placed an adorable baby otter plush into Luna’s hands.
“What—” Luna was taken aback as she looked at the tiny and cute baby otter.
“It’s for you.” Steven smiled. “When you were watching the performance earlier on, I saw you staring at the otters for a very long time. Since we can’t have a real otter, we’ll just get this toy. But if you don’t like it, I can—”
“I like it.” Luna hugged the baby otter plush in her arms with a smile. “Thank you, Steven.”
At that moment, their gazes met.
There seemed to be a subtle change in the looks in their eyes, yet there was no need for words to be said.
