Who would study psychology unless they had some issues?!-Chapter 159 - 157, Do you all know, and only I am unaware? This—oh, it’s not that important.

Chapter 159: Chapter 157, Do you all know, and only I am unaware? This—oh, it’s not that important.

Nan Zhubin had just returned to the office area and sat down for a moment;

The other young assistants, consultants, or the not-so-young consultants were still hesitating, wondering whether they should go forward out of courtesy to express concern to Mr. Nan;

Suddenly——

Everyone received a message.

The message came from the company work group.

[Howard: @everyone, gather in the meeting room in five minutes.]

This message immediately shifted the focus of everyone’s attention in the office area.

"A meeting?"

Having a meeting wasn’t something unusual.

"The boss wants to have a meeting?!"

Now that’s unusual.

...

Although Howard is the boss of the company, theoretically employee number 001, the big boss in the first seat.

But everyone who has joined the company knows a universally accepted fact——

At Yan Nuo Psychological Center, Supervisor Weng Pinting is the one in charge.

The consultants and assistants in the consulting department naturally firmly agree with this.

And even the colleagues in the human resources department and the online publicity department—yes, the center also has these two departments—deeply agree.

Because all the business at Yan Nuo Center revolves around consulting; all work requirements are also formulated around consulting.

At the same time, as the senior consultant who holds down the fort at the center, Weng Pinting single-handedly handles the company’s management system, consulting system, daily regulations, and so on.

Moreover, the regular monthly meetings, summary meetings, emergency meetings, and case-sharing meetings are all presided over by Weng Pinting.

In other words, Howard, as the boss, has never actually held a meeting for the people at Yan Nuo Center.

And this time——

"Look, even Supervisor Weng seems unaware of this meeting."

After each department arrived at the meeting room, they quickly saw Weng Pinting with a slightly furrowed brow.

"What on earth is the boss going to talk about in this meeting?" Everyone couldn’t help but whisper.

...

Unlike Nan Zhubin, who would occasionally be called into the office for various talks.

For most employees at Yan Nuo Psychological Center, the boss is usually reclusive.

Generally, employees only have a chance for a face-to-face private conversation with the boss during their orientation;

After that, the communication with the boss becomes scarce.

It’s basically only when Howard "inspects the work" and takes a stroll around that he might see someone and casually ask, "Working, Little X?" as a greeting.

So it seems that the boss doesn’t really want to communicate with the employees much.

Nan Zhubin, being an extremely outstanding performer, is considered an exception.

Aside from that, everyone’s impression of the boss is only reinforced during payday——when Weng Pinting emphasizes that the salary money is from the boss.

So.

How do the employees at Yan Nuo Psychological Center usually view Howard?

"Although business hasn’t been great lately, the boss is quite punctual with payments, never delaying."

This is the opinion of the standard employee.

"I heard that the boss recently rented two more offices in the city center, even though there’s barely any business here. What’s the reason for the boss to do this?"

This is from someone who has a bit more insider information.

"If it’s in the city center, maybe the business will increase?"

"Will it?"

"...Hmm, it will, right?"

"This isn’t like opening a milk tea shop. Cases are either introduced by acquaintance or drawn in through online platforms, what does location have to do with it?"

"Then why is the boss..."

This is a group talking quietly about the company’s future, since the boss hasn’t arrived yet.

"Originally, we were only barely breaking even, but now suddenly with two more offices in the city center—we must be losing money now."

The person saying this had a heavy expression.

Nan Zhubin generally didn’t pay much attention to these rumors and suddenly felt a flood of fresh information pouring into his mind.

Thus, it seemed many of the previous issues could now be explained.

Even so, an inexplicable feeling of unease began to develop in Nan Zhubin’s heart.

He turned to ask Shen Bing: "Do you know about what they just talked about?"

Shen Bing gave Nan Zhubin a somewhat puzzled look: "I... know all about it."

Nan Zhubin realized that in such a small company of twenty or thirty people, information circulates very quickly.

It’s just that his focus on consulting and concerns outside of the company meant he was unaware.

Nan Zhubin’s gaze fell on the group discussing major topics, and sure enough, he saw Mr. Hu among them. At the moment, he was rubbing his tough stubble with his thumb and forefinger, and in a senior’s posture, was animatedly discussing with the young consultants and assistants.

"Ahem!"

Weng Pinting suddenly coughed.

The sound was small but very imposing, and the room quickly fell silent.

It was also at this moment.

Click——

Howard opened the door and came in.

"Ah, everyone is here."

Howard’s face wore a beaming smile. Of course, it was obviously a fake smile.

And Nan Zhubin squinted because he noticed Lu Jia was also behind Howard.

It should be known that general company affairs have nothing to do with Lu Jia——this isn’t to say Lu Jia is unimportant, but when others were in meetings, Lu Jia, as the receptionist, had to remain at her post.

If Lu Jia wasn’t present, it meant Yan Nuo Center had even closed its doors.

Everyone was gathered in the meeting room, and it was truly a full staff meeting.

Nan Zhubin couldn’t help but look at Weng Pinting.

[Pupils dilated, eyelids contracted——surprise, confusion. It was because seeing Lu Jia made him realize that this meeting was indeed important, important enough for Boss Huo to gather everyone at the center in the true sense.]

[Pressing lips, slightly clenching teeth——with a bit of anger.]

[Is it because he also, as the supervisor, is unaware of the nature of this meeting?]

At the same time, Nan Zhubin also noticed several gazes cast his way.

Among them was the long-unseen Bald Yang, whose eyes revealed evident glee.

[Does he think that this meeting is to punish me? Because of the previous Dr. Chen incident?]

Nan Zhubin frowned.

Without waiting for Nan Zhubin to ponder further.

The boss happened to start his opening speech.

"Everyone, since it happens to be work hours now, I wanted to take this opportunity to gather everyone for a quick meeting, so let’s keep it swift to avoid delaying everyone’s trip home after work—we at ’Yan Nuo’ absolutely wouldn’t have that."

The boss cracked a joke, and the employees naturally responded appropriately with chuckles, like a school of fish surfacing at the sight of bait, bringing some life back to the meeting room that had quieted with the boss’s arrival.

The atmosphere was fairly relaxed now.

This deliberately orchestrated atmosphere fell under Howard’s gaze, making him reveal a proud expression.
