Chapter 526: Chapter 469: Very Cute
Caroline Quinn quickly found a somewhat clumsy solution to remedy the mess she’d made in such a short time.
Hearing her say that, Celeste Martin furrowed her brow a bit.
Didn’t she really like Kevin Clark?
If the person she liked was taken away by someone else, she still had to find a way to let that person save face.
There must be something wrong with this woman.
Perhaps people have always been visual animals.
Charlotte Lane seemed to be even more so, as her tolerance for good-looking people always seemed to be stronger.
Moreover, after all the series of actions by Celeste Martin, she almost guessed that Caroline Quinn’s “I heard” might have come from Celeste’s words.
She went along with Caroline Quinn’s remedy and looked at Kevin Clark, saying, “Am I that fierce? To compete with you, I need to get my permission first?”
Kevin Clark’s overbearing aura around him dissipated instantly as he looked at Charlotte Lane and smiled, “Not fierce, very cute.”
Charles Amos blinked his big eyes twice. She was…cute…right.
Upon hearing the word “cute,” Charlotte Lane’s eyebrows twitched, and she wanted to retort: Are your eyes going bad?
People around them saw Charlotte Lane’s distant expression and heard her cold voice.
They thought, love really could make people blind…to see a little cuteness.
…
Since Caroline Quinn said that she wanted to compete with Kevin Clark, he didn’t say anything and simply sat down next to the piano.
He played a song that was a must-learn at the Court Music Academy.
It was the song that he and Charlotte Lane had seen on the wall when they came here.
The song was long and difficult, clearly intended for showing off one’s skills.
Moreover, since different people played different instruments, this song had different parts that suited the skills of different instruments.
The part played by Kevin Clark was perfect for showing off piano skills.
His fingertips danced, and the piano sound was melodious. Each note seemed to fall on people’s hearts.
Gradually, many people gathered around.
Charlotte Lane stood by the piano, looking at Kevin Clark with unintentional affection in her eyes.
She really liked the way Kevin Clark played the piano. It had a sense of ancient elegance and modern collision contradiction.
It accentuated the ancient elegance and enchanting charm of Kevin Clark.
She never said it, so Kevin Clark played less, and this was one of the few times she could see him play the piano.
As the notes of the song gradually disappeared, Kevin Clark’s hands left the piano keys.
Suddenly, applause erupted around them.
While clapping, someone beside Alex Justin said, “No wonder he is your proudest disciple, it’s really a pity.”
Alex Justin raised the corners of his mouth proudly.
Kevin Clark had started learning piano since he was young, diligently and earnestly for more than ten years. Later, he had not touched the piano for several years. Then, when he came to the Court Music Academy, Alex Justin would have him play.
Some people’s talents were so great that even if they didn’t practice regularly later, their level would still far surpass others.
Kevin Clark was one of them.
So, Alex Justin always felt it was a pity.
Originally, Charles Amos was standing next to Charlotte Lane, but after Kevin Clark finished playing, he slowly moved closer. He stood next to Kevin Clark, his big eyes shining brightly as he looked at him.
Then, he said softly, “I’ll play as well as you someday.”
Kevin Clark patted his head, “You’ll be even better.”
After saying that, he looked at Charlotte Lane.
Seeing him looking over, Charlotte Lane raised her eyebrows slightly.
Just as Kevin Clark was about to get up, Celeste Martin, unwilling to give up, spoke again, “Mrs. Clark, why don’t you play something too? It would be a great story if the couple took the stage together.”
It was originally a very annoying sentence.
But Kevin Clark suddenly abandoned the idea of getting up.
He sat there, looking at Charlotte Lane.
Charlotte Lane looked into Kevin Clark’s eyes, feeling the sense of security he brought her.
After a while, she turned her head to look at Celeste Martin, repeating the sentence she had just said, and added what she didn’t say before, “I really don’t play the piano very well. However… I do have some knowledge of other instruments.”
Kevin Clark’s eyelashes fluttered lightly.
Hearing her words, Amelie Quentin in the crowd behind her turned and ran towards the Court Music Academy building.
Roy Madison couldn’t even find the time to say “slow down.”
Celeste Martin’s eyes darkened, but she still asked, “Really? What instrument did Mrs. Clark learn?”
“Pipa,” Charlotte Lane said faintly, her fingertips by her side gently caressing, “I’ve heard that Lady Martin is very good at playing the pipa.”
Hearing the word “pipa,” Celeste Martin seemed stunned at first, thinking she had misheard. Then she almost couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Pipa.
Celeste Martin felt her blood boiling and heating up.
This was even more exciting than seeing Daisy Zane sitting at the piano, being laughed at by those around her.
Because this way, she could personally pull Daisy Zane down.
And personally tell her that she still lost to her.
No matter how glorious Daisy Zane was, no matter how much she was chased after by others.
In the end, she still lost to her.
Celeste Martin’s excitement caused her skin to turn slightly red. She clenched her hands by her side and it took her a while to calm herself down.
But as soon as she opened her mouth, her voice was still trembling, “So… you want to compete with me in playing the pipa?”
“Wasn’t what I said clear enough?” Charlotte Lane replied.
Celeste Martin raised her chin, confidently and proudly saying, “Yes.”
Daisy Zane, this is what you asked for, don’t blame others…
