The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 95
Before Corinne could say anything, the girls next to her got all excited."What's wrong? You can't play?""If you can't, then stop pretending to be an all-round student!""Since you can't even play the ukulele, it's obvious that your reputation as an all-round top student was hyped up by the dean. Who's going to believe you if you say that you don't have any special relationship with the dean?"Corinne has never claimed to be a so-called 'all-round top student'. It was only because the dean was fond of her and praised her achievements constantly that such a reputation came to stick. Furthermore, she was often called to the office by the dean for about an hour, and the reason was that the dean enjoyed math, and she happened to be the top student in the math department. Whenever the dean had any mathematical problem, he would seek her out to discuss mathematical formulas and humbly ask her for advice regardless of his status as her elder.It was a simple routine borne of a healthy r

Ivanka's close friends continue to attack Corinne."Sure! If you can play a song today and win applause from all the students present here, consider it your victory! We won't just apologize… We'll even do whatever you ask us to do!"Corinne had a calm look as she replied, "Deal."The girl who seemed to be the leader added, "But if you can't play the piece well and you don't get the unanimous approval of our classmates, you'll have to crawl out of this place while we take a video and post it on the school forum! Still game for it?"Corinne frowned slightly then remained silent for a brief moment as if to think about it. At long last, she said, "Deal!"The girl smiled in contempt and said, "What are you waiting for, then? Remember not to be a sore loser!"Corinne turned around, went on stage, and took the ukulele from Ivanka.Ivanka faked a kind expression and pretended to show concern for her. "You should back out of the challenge. Girls like us value our reputation a lot, and it

Corinne had been stringing everyone along, so to speak!...An insipid expression appeared on her face. and the chaotic plucking had since become orderly. The tune she played was none other than that of the guitar score Ivanka gave her at the beginning.In the audience, the disgusted expressions of the students changed from disgust to doubt, then to admiration and intoxication.Ivanka and her group of friends were stunned.They never expected that Corinne would be able to play so well. The situation had changed drastically, and it was on such occasions that one must not lose one's momentum. Several of the girls from Ivanka's group began to cheer her on."Don't just stand there, Ivanka! You can sing, too!""Yeah! Use your voice to drown out Corinne!""Remember to dance!"After being reminded by the girls, Ivanka snapped out of her daze and followed the beat as she sang the lyrics and danced along.She sang to the best of her ability as she tried to draw the attention of the st

"Corinne has proven that she's an all-round top student! She can even play the ukulele better than some of the music department's students!""I'm fully convinced in her ability now, and I'll never question her again!""Me, too! I now understand why she's known as an all-round top student! It's no surprise that the dean appreciates her that much!"At the end of the performance, all the students there praised her repeatedly, and not a single one of them was not applauding enthusiastically.Ivanka and her friends, however, had ugly expressions on their faces.Corinne gently put down the ukulele, walked up to the stage, and looked at them. "Now go up on stage and apologize in front of everyone for what you said to the dean."The girl who took the lead in provoking her had a face full of disbelief. "H—How can you play the ukulele so well when you're not from the music department?"Corinne said curtly, "It's no big deal. I happen to have picked it up before."The girl gritted her tee

Corinne snickered. "Fifteen thousand? As your fellow graduate, do you think I'm that easy to get taken advantage of?"Ivanka snorted sarcastically. "But I thought your family was rich, Corinne. If you can donate a building to the school, why can't you pay for a ukulele?"Corinne narrowed her eyes. "What if I don't pay?""If you don't…" Ivanka glared at her and threatened harshly, "Then don't blame me for involving the police! This ukulele has your fingerprints on it, and everyone saw you playing it earlier! You won't be able to escape!"Corinne shrugged her shoulders indifferently. Ivanka was obviously upset after failing to get the limelight earlier and was merely there to cause more trouble.It was a very unclassy act."Go ahead and call the police, then! Once they're here, they can check if your ukulele is an antique, determine if it's worth that much, and decide whether your behavior falls under extortion."Ivanka was stunned for a moment, and she had a flustered expression

"Don't cry. You won't look pretty anymore if your tears smudge your makeup."Zeke gracefully took out a handkerchief from the inner breast pocket of his jacket and wiped Ivanka's tears skillfully and gently.Ivanka's heart throbbed like mad when a handsome, noble man showed such concern for her. She felt even more convinced of her attractiveness.'He must be the Prince Charming who came to save me!' she gushed inwardly.She moved a little closer to Zeke's arms and said in a coquettish manner, "Thank you. I'm fine now.""I'm very happy to hear that." Zeke pursed his lips and gently placed the handkerchief in her hand. "I heard someone playing the ukulele from the next room. It was such a marvelous tune. Was it you who played it?"Ivanka's expression froze, and she did not know how to answer that. By telling the truth, she would only give that d*mn Corinne another chance to shine in front of her Prince Charming. After thinking about it, Ivanka deliberately gave him a vague reply, "

The man's rear figure was tall and slender, and as the petite girl followed him obediently, one could see the stark contrast of a visually adorable height difference....Ivanka squatted on the ground and wept. It was such a shame that her ukulele was destroyed in such a manner.She thought that crying like this would get the pity of the handsome man who wiped her tears earlier, but no one came to her aid even after she had been crying for some time!As soon as she looked up, she saw only the Prince Charming's handsome back.'Argh! Why is that handsome guy leaving, too?! Doesn't he care that I'm in such a miserable state?' Ivanka hurriedly got up and chased after him. "Sir, please wait..."Zeke stopped, smiled, and glanced askance at her. "What's wrong? Is something the matter?"Ivanka was blank and felt a little awkward. 'Am I seeing things? My Prince Charming is obviously smiling, but he seems so much more indifferent than before.'"Uh… Sir, I'm here to return your handkerchi

"You flatter me," Corinne responded absent-mindedly without raising her head.Jeremy rested his forehead on one hand and glanced at her from the side. "Have you learned it before?"His question was an inquisitive one because it defied common sense that Corinne could play the ukulele so well. Although he had chosen her to be his missus purely by chance, he had sent someone to investigate her background after that chance meeting.Although the Carews were regarded as a middle-class family, Corinne was an illegitimate daughter who did not receive much in the way of care. She was sent to the countryside to be raised by relatives since she was young, and the worrying environment of her upbringing meant she hardly had any means to learn any musical instruments. Yet, that piece she played at the gathering earlier was simply beyond the reach of anyone without a solid foundation of seven or eight years.She was so full of contradictions that he could not help but wonder if there was more to
