This question isn't asked very directly, but even the average person can grasp the meaning behind the visitor's words.

Nan Zhubin's repetition was very straightforward: "Are you trying to confirm the appointment time for the next consultation?"

The visitor didn't feel embarrassed or evasive; after Nan Zhubin accurately repeated her thoughts, she simply nodded: "Yes, I find the dream interpretation you're doing quite interesting. Anyway, since the hospital is paying, coming for a fixed weekly consultation isn't bad."

She looked at Nan Zhubin, and her eyes conveyed something different.

Thinking about an hour ago, the visitor was adamant that there was no need for further consultations and planned to cancel future meetings.

But now, an hour later, her thoughts had changed, and even her form of address and attitude towards Nan Zhubin had shifted.

However, at this moment, Nan Zhubin maintained a businesslike demeanor: "My assistant will discuss the specific appointment with you in a moment. Sorry, I have to prepare for my next consultation."

After he finished speaking, he no longer concerned himself with the visitor's reaction and walked straight out.

But before handing over to Mo Kai, Nan Zhubin leaned down: "When the next visitor arrives, have them do a set of scale analysis and help me stall for about ten minutes."

Mo Kai was taken aback, then nodded.

When consultants encounter unforeseen circumstances during the consultation gap that prevent starting on time, the assistant's responsibility is to calm the visitor and help delay the time.

It's just that such things rarely happen—or rather, they had never happened to Nan Zhubin before.

Upon hearing this request from Nan Zhubin, Mo Kai was even a bit excited.

Afterward, Nan Zhubin no longer concerned himself with Mo Kai's interactions with the visitor once he entered.

At the end of the consultation, his theme was always dream interpretation.

In fact, during the seemingly "chatty" consultation process with Nan Zhubin earlier, the visitor also showed some things. And those things can actually be linked to the visitor's dreams.

It's just that at the early stage of the consultation, it's not quite suitable to explain these things to the visitor so directly and bluntly.

But Nan Zhubin can discuss them with someone else. That's why he needed Mo Kai to stall for a bit of time.

Thinking this, Nan Zhubin walked straight into Bai Qinghua's office.

...

In the office, Bai Qinghua wasn't playing games for once; his phone was face down and set aside, and a teacup rested by his hand.

The computer screen in front of him flashed a white light, and following the mouse movements, small black dots could be seen sliding, indicating he was reviewing some files.

Surrounded by the curling tea aroma, it seemed this was the only way to calm this professor in his forties.

However, with a "click" sound, Bai Qinghua quickly snapped out of his focused state.

"Zhuren, finished with the consultation?"

The teacher said while pouring a cup of tea for the young apprentice, pushing it in front of him: "How's Li Lingling's situation?"

The gap between consultations wasn't long, and even with Mo Kai stalling for a bit, Nan Zhubin didn't have much time to report to Bai Qinghua.

He first gave a brief summary: "One good news, one bad news."

"Starting with the good news, we don't need to worry about Li Lingling's transference situation anymore. She was already planning to cut off the relationship with Liu Jiahang. And according to my judgment, she wasn't lying."

Nan Zhubin gestured to his eyes, indicating his way of making judgments.

"Additionally, the previous medical disturbance incident didn't leave her with any traumatic experience effects. Regarding this aspect, she doesn't need further consultation."

Bai Qinghua blinked: "…Hmm?"

Nan Zhubin's conclusion was quite astonishing.

Before this young man walked in, Bai Qinghua had mentally prepared for countless bad scenarios.

Consultants need to take the control of transference very seriously regarding visitors.

Although Bai Qinghua appeared confident during the confrontation with Liu Jiahang and had much faith in Nan Zhubin, when things truly came to a head, Bai Qinghua couldn't help but think of the worst scenarios.

Just as Nan Zhubin was conducting the consultation, he himself was also pondering more than one "fallback" plan in his office in case Nan Zhubin's consultation failed.

Yet now, the conclusion Nan Zhubin presented was… this optimistic?

"Wait a minute… based on what you said, either Li Lingling herself is a psychological resilience marvel fit for textbooks, or…"

Experienced Bai Qinghua quickly caught on. Upon hearing the good news from Nan Zhubin, before the joy could fully materialize on his face, it was replaced by a contemplative gravity.

The "optimistic" result presented by Li Lingling was evidently abnormal; for psychologists, this kind of abnormality is definitively "not optimistic."

Nan Zhubin nodded, affirming the suspicion in Bai Qinghua's mind.

"In the situation where the consultant actively controls transference and can still proactively sever this connection, generally speaking, such visitors have very sparse social relationships."

"But intriguingly, from what I just understood, Li Lingling and Liu Jiahang have developed an intimate relationship, a deeply involved intimate interaction, which is anything but sparse. This conclusion is somewhat concerning…"
