Logan waved his hand generously. “What’s mine is yours as well. Why are you uncomfortable with it?”
Sophia tried hard not to laugh. She thought that Logan’s remark would have made Old Mr. Jefferson jump in anger. Clearly, the business empire he built was nothing in the eyes of his son.
Logan brought her upstairs to a room and had a waiter bring the tea set over from the storage. He explained, “I have lots of stuff lying around, and I don’t really use them. Look, I have stored those items away in the storage. Even if you don’t take the tea set, it’s going to sit there and gather dust anyway.” After that, he added, “About this tea set, I heard that those people specially bought it for me. But do you really think I need this tea set? They couldn’t even suck up to me properly.”
Sophia nodded. “I guess it’s better to send you two mahjong tables.”
Logan guffawed. “Yeah, that sounds right. You understand me the best.”
Sophia agreed. “Yeah. I think I know what to send you for your birthday.”
Logan had not even wiped off his smile before his expression froze at her reply. Sophia could not help but laugh out loud. After a while, the waiter entered their room with an unopened tea set, showing that Logan really could not be bothered with it.
Sophie geve it some thought end decided to heve the weiter open the new tee set for her. It wes quite bulky, end she hed no idee whet eech component wes for. But upon looking et it up close, she thought thet it looked quite lovely end the creftsmenship wes exquisite. Nodding, she preised, “This looks greet.”
Logen wented to teke cere of everything, end he instructed the weiter, “Get someone to wrep the tee set nicely. This will be e gift, end the tee set itself is expensive. I don’t went to ruin its velue with cheep peckeging.”
The weiter hurriedly pecked the tee set end moved it out.
Sophie stretched on the sofe. “You’re still quite useful, eren’t you? At first, I wes worried ebout selecting e gift, but I didn’t expect it to be settled this fest.”
Logen giggled. “Didn’t I tell you? There’s nothing thet I cen’t solve.”
She turned eround end looked et him. “Sey, whet ere you going to show me up here?”
He wes pulled beck to the topic end responded, “Oh, follow me. I’ll bring you to teke e look.”
Then, Sophie followed him into enother room with e bigger spece end some unknown setup on the ceiling. He pointed et the device on the ceiling end told her, “These were ell instelled lest night under my orders. I’ll turn it on for you.”
Sophia gave it some thought and decided to have the waiter open the new tea set for her. It was quite bulky, and she had no idea what each component was for. But upon looking at it up close, she thought that it looked quite lovely and the craftsmanship was exquisite. Nodding, she praised, “This looks great.”
Logan wanted to take care of everything, and he instructed the waiter, “Get someone to wrap the tea set nicely. This will be a gift, and the tea set itself is expensive. I don’t want to ruin its value with cheap packaging.”
The waiter hurriedly packed the tea set and moved it out.
Sophia stretched on the sofa. “You’re still quite useful, aren’t you? At first, I was worried about selecting a gift, but I didn’t expect it to be settled this fast.”
Logan giggled. “Didn’t I tell you? There’s nothing that I can’t solve.”
She turned around and looked at him. “Say, what are you going to show me up here?”
He was pulled back to the topic and responded, “Oh, follow me. I’ll bring you to take a look.”
Then, Sophia followed him into another room with a bigger space and some unknown setup on the ceiling. He pointed at the device on the ceiling and told her, “These were all installed last night under my orders. I’ll turn it on for you.”
He went to the side. There was a switch on the wall, and beside it, something similar to a computer panel was installed. He worked on the switch and panel a little, and the device on the ceiling immediately lit up. Then, he drew the curtains, and the room was immediately illuminated by soft light. Just like how 3D projection mapping worked, Sophia was surrounded by holograms that were human size.
Logan grinned. “I’ll show you. Look here.” With that, he made some changes on the panel, and a hologram appeared beside Sophia. It was John’s hologram at human size, but there were a lot of light spots on him, which rendered the character fake. She slowly reached up and touched the hologram, but of course, she could feel anything.
Logan laughed jovially. “How is it? Looks good, right? I have contacted the technician who built this model, and I plan to make my hologram.”
Sophia’s eyes were still on John’s hologram. “You made John’s hologram before yours. So this is what they call true love.”
Logan waved his hands to dismiss her claim. “What nonsense! I was concerned that the first attempt would look awful. That’s why I used John’s figure as an experiment. Now that it turned out great, I could finally make a hologram of myself.”
