I already write the transition CSS rules...

These rules are added to .button class both on and off states.

transition-property: background; transition-duration: .4s;

I don't know what's still wrong with this code?

style.css
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

.button {  
  background: #4682B4;
  transition-property: background;
  transition-duration: .4s;
}

.button:hover {
    background: #356690;
  transition-property: background;
  transition-duration: .4s;
}
index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>CSS Transitions</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="page.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
    <a class="button" href="#">Learn More</a>
</body>
</html>

In this line you forgot to put a root of your css file: |link rel="stylesheet" href="page.css"|

put like this: link |rel="stylesheet" href="css/page.css"|

and you are not using the page.css file, just remove.

Besides that, you don't need to declare the transition rules on the hover:

.button {  
  background: #4682B4;
  transition-property: background;
  transition-duration: .4s;
}

.button:hover {
    background: #356690;  
}
