Who would study psychology unless they had some issues?!-Chapter 178 - 176 I Like to Do Consulting

On the consultation scheduling sheet in front of me, the words "Nan Zhubin" are written repeatedly between the lines.

At first glance, it seemed like a schoolgirl secretly in love with Nan Zhubin had been practicing writing her crush’s name in her notebook.

However, this was indeed the consultation scheduling record of the Psychological Consultation Center.

For a moment, the teacher in charge of the center felt somewhat bewildered.

Although he was an administrative psychologist, not a full-time psychological consultant, after years of work, he had accumulated hundreds of hours of consultation time. He was thoroughly familiar with the basic points of psychological consultation work.

The scheduling sheet in front of him was challenging his professional beliefs.

——Can a psychological consultant be scheduled for so many sessions in one day?

The conviction in Nan Zhubin’s professional ability made him subconsciously assume that Nan Zhubin was unaware of this, so he immediately began scolding his student assistant: "Who recorded this? Was it because too many people saw you during your previous lecture, Mr. Nan, and now someone spread the word about your consultations at the center, so everyone’s coming to book your sessions?"

"Xia Tian, were you the one who randomly accepted consultations? You... also need to discuss with Mr. Nan, how did you arrange so many for him?"

The teacher in charge of the center thought he had found an explanation that, although quite far-fetched, was relatively reasonable.

Nan Zhubin froze for a moment, subconsciously falling into contemplation—could this be a way to attract students to come for consultations?

If the aim wasn’t consulting but simply accumulating hours, this seemed quite feasible...

[Forget it, if these students occupy resources needed by those who truly require consultations, it wouldn’t be good. After all, the school’s free psychological consultation appointments are limited.]

Although there were many whimsical thoughts in his mind, they flashed by quickly.

Nan Zhubin stepped forward and placed his arm between Xia Tian and the teacher in charge, explaining immediately: "I was the one who asked Xia Tian to fill all the consultation slots for me."

The teacher in charge of the center was dumbfounded, hesitating to speak.

"She had the same reaction as you at first." Nan Zhubin laughed openly, "But I insisted, so she arranged it that way for me."

For outsiders, this statement may be easier to understand, but for those in the industry, it requires more effort to grasp.

The teacher in charge of the center struggled to sort out his thoughts and finally composed himself.

"Zhuren, is it because of that thing from before?"

Eliminating one incorrect possibility, the teacher in charge immediately suspected another possibility.

He glanced at Xia Tian, who was in the know; then looked at Chen Ting, uncertain if she was.

So he used a more subtle way to remind Nan Zhubin: "Zhuren, are you doing this to continue accessing resources at the center? Or is it because I previously asked you to consult a few more students, so you’re doing this now? If that’s the case, you don’t need to do this. I can even arrange the students I asked you to see; it’s not an exchange condition..."

"No, no, I want to do this myself." Nan Zhubin interrupted.

"I came to the center to be able to do more consultations." Nan Zhubin said, "My company hasn’t had many clients recently."

The teacher in charge was taken aback, "...Oh?"

Even after eliminating several incorrect choices, he wouldn’t have settled on this answer. He could hardly imagine a psychological consultant willingly taking on so many consultations.

Even hearing Nan Zhubin say it himself, the teacher in charge of the center would think: Given Nan Zhubin’s expertise in psychological consultation, there must be a reason for this, a deeper meaning...

Nan Zhubin said with certainty and simplicity, "I enjoy doing consultations."

...Well, this reason was a bit beyond the teacher’s understanding.

If it were a student who had just been accepted into the psychology department, saying "I simply like consultations" out of curiosity, he could understand and might even think to himself, "How nice it is to be young," or "Innocent kid."

Generally speaking, when these students accumulate about 10 hours of consultation time, their enthusiasm fades; after that, without assignments, papers, consultation fees, credits, or other external incentives, they definitely wouldn’t proactively go for consultations.

But here was Nan Zhubin, an experienced psychologist with a formal consultant role outside, voluntarily returning to provide free consultations to students at the center.

He said, with clear eyes, "I enjoy doing consultations."

It was very perplexing.

On the other hand, after silencing the teacher in charge of the center, Nan Zhubin glanced at his watch.

"My first client today is about to arrive."

"So, I’ll head over there first—consultation room one is over there, right?"

Xia Tian immediately raised her hand to point Nan Zhubin in the right direction. After the young consultant disappeared from view, she sat back down with Chen Ting, both wearing a standard social smile for the teacher in charge of the center.

Meanwhile, the teacher remained staring blankly at today’s consultation schedule.

Click—

The center’s door opened again; this time, it wasn’t a client but a short-haired female teacher entering.

"Teacher Xue? Good afternoon. You have a consultation this afternoon." Xia Tian immediately greeted her.

The female teacher smiled, too. In her thirties, seeing pretty female students naturally brightened her mood.

"I know, I came to check the schedule and confirm the time. Also—"

At this point, Teacher Xue noticed the teacher in charge, lowering her voice, "I heard that Nan Zhubin, Mr. Nan, is coming back to do consultations today?"

Her voice carried gossipy curiosity, mixed with visible anticipation.

The teacher in charge didn’t answer.

This was quite unusual, leading Teacher Xue to notice his current actions; following his gaze, Teacher Xue also immediately saw today’s unusual schedule.

"Nan Zhubin really came back—Wait, what’s with this schedule of his?"

She looked up at the teacher in charge, "Are you crazy?"

The teacher in charge finally stirred, responding to Teacher Xue, albeit with some hesitation in his voice.

"I’m not really sure..." freēnovelkiss.com

...

Outside happenings weren’t known to Nan Zhubin.

Even if he did know, he wouldn’t take it to heart.

For him, this was the second time doing consultations at Jiang University Psychological Center.

This was also the best method he found for quickly achieving his Monthly Goal consultation hours.

At this moment, he felt relatively relaxed.

"After all, compared to the chaotic consultations in society, the issues students have in need of counseling in a school setting should be much simpler, right?"
