Chapter 520: Investment finally bears fruit 3

Pelinka led Ethan into her office. The other accompanying personnel were very tactful and those who should dispersed did so.

Embiid and several guards stopped at the stairs.

After Ethan entered the room, he arranged for people to guard the intersections.

"Brothers, let me remind you first. It's rare for the master to be interested in going out for fun. You'd better control your mouth.

If I know who is going to gossip, we won't even be brothers."

"Boss, don't worry! We are not fools!"

"Well! I understand! Guard the intersection and don't let anyone get close to here. I'll go around and take a look!"

"Yes, boss!"

...

On the other side, as soon as Ethan entered the door, Perlinka helped Ethan take off his coat.

"Lord Ethan, the weather is so hot, let me help you take off your clothes!"

"Yes!"

"Oh! Your shirt is wet, take it off too! I'll help you wipe the sweat off! Then change into a new one!"

"Yes!"

"Your pants are wrinkled too, why don't you take them off and I'll help you iron them!"

"Yes!"

"Lord Ethan, you've already changed your clothes, why not take a shower! There's a bathroom and a bathtub in my office! I'll help you rub your back"

"Yes!"

...

Just as Perinka was helping him undress, Ethan, who didn't have to move at all, was bored and glanced around, and accidentally found a strange thing on the desk.

That thing looked like a hat made of several copper strips, covered with complex patterns, and embedded with a magic stone.

Ethan picked it up, looked at it and asked, "What is this?"

Perinka, who was squatting on the ground helping Ethan change his pants, looked up and continued with his work while answering vaguely:

"I have always had trouble sleeping, and a graduate student made this thing for me after knowing it.

I don't know what it is, but it's really useful. I put it on when I go to bed and sleep until dawn.

I feel very energetic when I wake up the next day."

"Wow! That's a really good thing!" Ethan said as he prepared to return the thing.

At this time, Perinka said: "This thing is good, but it also has disadvantages.

I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, Lord Ethan. I originally had big breasts. Since I used this thing, I found that my breasts seem to be getting bigger and bigger, which makes me very distressed!"

When Ethan heard it, he immediately opened his eyes wide: "Is this a disadvantage?"

"Lord Ethan! I know that men like big ones, but for women, if they are too big, it is a very heavy burden.

I have back pain every day when I walk, so I dare not use it anymore.

And this thing has another disadvantage, that is, if I sleep with it, I always have the same dream, which is a blurry and glowing tree.

I don't know what that means, but..."

"What did you say?" Ethan suddenly interrupted Perinka.

Perinka was startled and stammered, "I said it would make people have the same dream."

"Not this, what do you say is in the dream?"

"A tree! There is a glowing tree growing in the endless darkness!"

"What does that tree look like?"

"Well... it's the tree we usually see. To be precise, it's a small sapling, and there are green dots floating on the tree that glow like fireflies.

Okay, Lord Ethan, it's just a dream. If you want to hear it, I'll tell you while I'm bathing you!"

...

That night, Ethan didn't go back until the next day when he took a carriage and went home slowly.

As soon as he got home, he immediately went to find Sophia with a copper hat.

As soon as he opened Sophia's door, he saw Sophia sitting by the window, staring at him with a cold face.

"You didn't come home last night! My dear great swordsman, what are you busy with?"

Ethan saw that Sophia was always in a daze like a fool recently, not caring about anything, and thought that she would not know about not coming home at night.

Unexpectedly! This little girl knew everything. It turned out that she was pretending to be a fool recently?

"Cough, cough!" Ethan coughed twice: "It's like this, haven't you been in a daze recently? I'm a little worried, so..."

"Humph!" Before Ethan finished speaking, Sophia snorted coldly: "Do you think I'm a fool?

No matter how busy you are, you will definitely go home for dinner. In all these years, you have never stayed out at night. To be honest, what did you do?"

"Your tone of voice obviously doubts me!" Ethan puffed up his chest: "Don't you know who I am, Ethan?

It's not an exaggeration to say that I am a gentleman!

I didn't go home for one day because of something, and you questioned my character like this. Isn't it too much?"

Sophia sneered and slowly walked to Ethan's side.

"Ethan, I don't care if you find a woman outside, but I warn you, if you dare to bring that woman home, don't blame me for being rude!"

How could Ethan believe Sophia's lies? This guy is obviously setting a trap. If you believe it, you will fall into the trap immediately.

"Sophia, don't be suspicious all day long.

Don't you want to know why I didn't come home last night? Then I'll tell you now!"

As he said, Ethan stuffed the copper hat in his hand into Sophia's arms: "It's for this thing! Do you know what this is?"

Sophia held the copper hat and looked puzzled: "What?"

"You can't find a way to enter the conscious world, right? I see you've been in a daze lately, and you've lost your appetite. I'm so worried.

That's why I went to the medical school and asked the professors there to think of a solution.

This thing is the solution they came up with!

You can enter the subconscious world just by wearing it to sleep!"

Sophia was delighted at first, then she looked suspicious: "Does this thing really work?"

"You'll know if you try it?" Ethan looked distressed: "For you, I've run my legs off, and begged everyone I could, but all I got in return was your doubts.

Well, in that case, Sophia, I won't care about you anymore.

You can look at me however you want!"

After that, Ethan turned around and left.

Ethan wasn't acting, but he really had to leave, because he couldn't hold it anymore.

Seeing this, Sophia quickly grabbed Ethan: "Oh! I'm sorry! I misunderstood you, I apologize to you!"

"No need!" Ethan shook off Sophia's hand and ran out of the room as if he was escaping for his life.

After Ethan left, Sophia stood there in a daze.

"Did you really misunderstand him?"

"Miss!" Sophia's personal maid came over: "How could it be a misunderstanding? Didn't you see the scratches on the lord's neck?

It's obvious that the woman is very ambitious and deliberately left marks to declare sovereignty!"

"Don't talk nonsense! Those don't look like scratches!"

"If it wasn't a woman, who could hurt the lord? If you don't believe it, call Embiid to ask and you'll know?"
