Who would study psychology unless they had some issues?!-Chapter 104 - 103: Next Unlucky Fellow, Please

Nan Zhubin subsequently played the role of a "student who completely opens up in front of the teacher" very well.

He confided in his mentor about his recent pressures, the difficulties encountered in consultation, and the hardships of surviving in society.

But what Lin Lulin didn’t know was that this conversation was premeditated by Nan Zhubin.

Nan Zhubin had even "rehearsed" the conversation in his mind!

And Lin Lulin’s reactions and guidance coincided with one of the situations Nan Zhubin had rehearsed!

Gradually, it confirmed one of Nan Zhubin’s suspicions...

...

"Are you feeling a bit tired?" Lin Lulin suddenly asked.

The clock on the wall had unknowingly made a full circle.

Nan Zhubin’s face showed visible signs of fatigue, his whole body felt like a broken spring, exuding a sense of uncontrolled looseness.

This fatigue had two reasons.

On one hand, it was because Nan Zhubin had to play a self-constructed fake role in front of a psychology professor.

For this, he needed to expend a massive amount of mental energy.

And in fact, even though Nan Zhubin expended so much energy that he gave it his all, he still wasn’t confident he hadn’t left any flaws in his act.

Fortunately, besides the role of a "student," the identity Nan Zhubin played was also that of a "student who has suffered great difficulty and whose psychological wounds have yet to heal," especially since this student’s wounds were just torn open by the teacher himself.

Therefore, even if Nan Zhubin’s acting wasn’t perfect, any pauses, thoughts, or even other unnatural behaviors during the conversation could be explained away as "trauma responses."

And coincidentally, Lin Lulin was a seasoned consultant who had seen many similar cases, and Nan Zhubin’s current performance perfectly fit his cognition.

In fact, if Nan Zhubin had performed more smoothly, it might have aroused Lin Lulin’s suspicions.

As it stands now, it’s just right, resembling the familiar pattern to Lin Lulin.

"It’s alright." Seeing Nan Zhubin’s state wasn’t right, Lin Lulin felt he had already gained what he wanted from today, and instead started to comfort Nan Zhubin, "If it’s not working out, let’s end it here for today."

"You’ve had it tough too. If you encounter any problems in consultation with visitors later on, feel free to come to me anytime."

He offered a kindly smile: "After all, I’m also your supervisor."

Nan Zhubin placed his right hand on his temple, pulling a "comforted" smile at the corners of his mouth.

At this moment, given his mental state, this smile appeared somewhat bitter.

This was the other reason—Nan Zhubin was indeed very fatigued now.

Because he had just used the Emotion Rebalancing technique several times!

Lin Lulin wasn’t known as a seasoned consultant who had delved into psychological consultation for decades without reason. His words in the conversation had, countless times, manipulated Nan Zhubin’s emotions, making them surge high and low.

And every time Nan Zhubin felt his emotions deviating from the baseline, he would decisively give himself a dose of Emotion Rebalancing. ƒгeewebnovёl_com

This pure physiological change wasn’t something Nan Zhubin could hide, nor necessarily needed to, especially in front of Lin Lulin.

In Lin Lulin’s eyes, this fatigue was more proof of his successful rhetoric, of managing to break down Nan Zhubin’s psychological defenses, followed by leading him by the nose.

In Lin Lulin’s mind, today’s conversation achieved its purpose.

Upon hearing Lin Lulin’s conclusive dismissive words, Nan Zhubin sensibly stood up:

"Then I’ve bothered you today, teacher. I still have some company work to hand over later, so I’ll be off first."

Lin Lulin rose with a reluctant expression: "Spend a little more time taking care of yourself. If the old Huo is making things difficult for you, let me know, I’ll talk to him."

Nan Zhubin bid farewell once more, walked to the door, and closed it.

Then, he let out a long breath.

"Today’s conversation, mission accomplished."

...

Specifically came to Jiang University for a showdown with his former teacher.

It was probing, verifying, and gathering information.

First, that vague feeling Nan Zhubin had before was confirmed—

Lin Lulin, this former teacher, is an "enemy."

This also clarified why every time Huang Xin, with his small eyes, saw him, there was an underlying hostility, a tendency to "play tricks" in his actions.

It’s just that perhaps due to the insufficient capability of Huang Xin and the other, the expression of hostility wasn’t clear enough to cause actual harm, so Nan Zhubin had always hesitated to conclude their attitude towards him.

And now, Nan Zhubin could affirm that this hostility from Huang Xin came from Lin Lulin.

His real enemy—was Lin Lulin.

This was the first matter that Nan Zhubin confirmed.

Secondly, Nan Zhubin confirmed that in the incident where he was expelled from Jiang University due to a consultation mistake—there was Lin Lulin’s influence!

Further extending to the third suspicion Nan Zhubin confirmed in the dialogue.

Li Minglu’s case was deliberately transferred by Lin Lulin to entrap Nan Zhubin.

Because the main purpose of today’s conversation for Lin Lulin was to understand Nan Zhubin’s diagnosis and intervention process for Li Minglu.

Even later, Lin Lulin wanted to give "advice" under the guise of mentorship, attempting to make Nan Zhubin conduct further interventions in this case according to his will.

"What does he want to do?"

Nan Zhubin’s brow furrowed deeply.

If one were to use a visitor against a consultant, under what circumstances and with what actions could a visitor truly "entrap" the consultant?

Nan Zhubin harbored a suspicion in his heart, but this suspicion was so bold that his instinct was to immediately dismiss it.

Nan Zhubin turned to gaze at the office door.

He seemed to see inside the office, the mentor who had just seen off the problematic student had yet to turn around. The mentor leaned against his desk with a deep gaze, sunlight couldn’t reach his back. He stared out the door, seemingly still seeing the student’s silhouette in his mind.

Their gazes met through the closed door.

[Could such deeds really be committed by you, a professor of psychology, a consultant, a teacher?]

Nan Zhubin bore this question in his heart, then quickly shook it off.

In challenges, never underestimate an enemy’s ability and determination, nor overestimate their kindness and goodwill.

One must take the initiative in their own hands.

Nan Zhubin took a deep breath.

The current situation is as it is.

Although the visitor has issues, and is a weapon of the enemy,

the visitor themselves is innocent.

Sugar-coated artillery shells, savor the sugar coating and send the artillery shell back.

Whether for the visitor or for himself, he must accept this case.

Of course, the artillery shell part should not be forgotten either.

For this, Nan Zhubin needs more detailed information, information that cannot be obtained from Lin Lulin.

Nan Zhubin mumbled to himself: "From whom can I get this information?"
