Gradually, Catherine discovered that the reception was not as simple as it seemed.

This was probably just an internal mafia meeting in the name of Jenny's birthday, or a social networking event or something.

But one thing is certain, that is Jenny's grandfather, Old White, who is probably also a senior member of the Mafia.

At least, those big guys who were chatting and laughing didn't look like they were here to celebrate someone else's birthday.

The dance was even worse than Catherine imagined, and she didn't even meet the guy in the novel.

Oh, there is another one, that is Jeffrey, but this guy seems to be some distance from that kind of "dandy".

The whole dance seemed very dull because all those people were talking.

It seems that if the whole atmosphere wants to be lively, it will probably be around dinner time.

"What a shame, it would be great if my package could be delivered."

Catherine looked a little regretful.

"What?"

"Birthday gift~"

Catherine smiled mysteriously, but said nothing.

But she seemed to be lucky today. Just as she was talking, the servant came to Jenny and told her that the package had arrived.

"Maybe we should go see Kate's gift first?" Lily said with a smile.

Lily seems to be the one who can liven up the atmosphere the most among the friends. Although the scene feels a bit cold, as long as she is there, these little princesses will not feel lonely.

"Let's go~"

Lisa was also encouraging.

So, the five people fled quietly.

When they arrived at Jenny's room, they only saw a large man wrapped in a cardboard box and placed in the middle of the room.

"What's this?"

Jenny is curious.

"gametv. I made it myself!"

Catherine smiled.

Although it was the first time and the second time familiar, it still took Catherine a lot of time to make these things.

Of course, the product this time is much better than last time.

In the past few months, Catherine has been busy designing the appearance of GameTV, and now it is finally completed.

Everyone opened the cardboard box and a TV was revealed. It was a color TV.

However, what is different from ordinary TV sets is that there are two handles on both sides of this color TV. This is not a miscellaneous handle produced in the 1970s and 1980s, but a "modern handle" with a cross button.

This is also patented.

You must know that the history of the handle has also gone through a long period of "evolution", and only in the 21st century can people have the "feel".

As for people from the 1970s to the 1990s, not to mention the feel of the handle, even the standards of the handle are different.

It also took Catherine half a month to polish a handle similar to that of later generations. Although there were only 6 buttons: up, down, left, right and a, b, it already looked very good.

As for the casing of the TV, Catherine also designed it. TVs these days are all big wooden boxes. What's even more outrageous is that the screens of some TVs are not even in the center!

Although what Catherine chose is just the appearance of a CRT TV that will evolve in the next few decades, it is already relatively good-looking these days.

At least that's what it looks like to Catherine.

After connecting the power supply, several people turned on the TV.

Because there is no remote control, Catherine integrated the TV remote control function into the handle. There are two left and right switches in the middle of the handle host. One is to set the TV to cable TV mode, and the other is to set it to game console mode.

The button below is for controlling the game. On the left is "Tetris" - but now it is renamed "Emma Cube", and on the right is "Ping Pong".

In a few years, a kind of billiard room will be popular in the United States, and this "ping pong" will also be popular for a while.

Moreover, this "Ping Pong" game is also the earliest game in the world. It first appeared on an oscilloscope. But now, the copyrights of these games belong to Catherine.

And they are all at the level of money-grabbing machines.

The first thing Catherine showed everyone was the Emma Cube.

This is a pure electronic game, that is, it can only be played in electronic games, and reality cannot be simulated.

Catherine specially set up the two-player mode and changed the picture from black and white to color, but the memory was expanded several times. You know, the storage cost of this idea is very high.

They were immediately fascinated by this game.

"It's really interesting."

It’s weird if it’s not interesting. This is a classic game among classics that has been tested for decades!

"Catherine, did you really do this yourself?"

Lily suddenly thought of what Catherine once said.

"That's right, even this handle was polished by me step by step~"

Catherine smiled.

"You polished it yourself?!"

Lily suddenly looked at Catherine in disbelief, but she just nodded.

"show me."

Lily suddenly raised Catherine's hand.

There was a layer of calluses on it, which I usually didn't notice, but when Lily lifted it up, Catherine discovered it.

"Oh my God, you made your hands so rough?!"

Since when do Americans still care about this?

Uh... the other party is British (immigrated).

"Is this nothing?" Catherine still felt that it was a bit of a fuss.

“Hand care is very important!”

It was Ada who came over at this time. It seemed that she also cared about the so-called "nurturing".

"I will never use chemical products!" Catherine shook her head.

You know, the average life expectancy of women who frequently take care of themselves is shorter than those who do not take care of themselves...

"There is no need to use chemical products, and it is a waste of money. Just pay attention to it." Ada doesn't seem to be suitable for any cosmetics.

"Maybe you can teach her?" Lily looked at Ada, then looked back at Catherine.

She simply rolled her eyes.

Maybe it was because she was once a man, so she didn't pay attention to many things at all. These habits she had developed have not changed now.

"By the way, Kate, you should also pay attention to the way you walk!" Lisa suddenly came over.

"ha?"

When did giving gifts become a meeting of criticism for oneself?

"Yes, Kate, you have to pay attention to this. When you wear a skirt, you spread your legs. Don't do that!"

As soon as Lisa said this, Lily also remembered Catherine's usual movements.

"Interesting……"

On the side, Jenny has already cleared the second level of Tetris.

As Catherine expected, as the evening approached, the conversations between the big guys had come to an end.

Soon, it was time for dinner, but the five people still did not appear in the hall.

Sorry, it’s a bit late. Let’s continue. Please vote for me by the way~
