Who would study psychology if they didn't have some kind of problem?

Chapter 461 Mo Kai: It just feels like...work is very easy, smooth, and effortless.

The first visitor has been inside for forty minutes.

The consulting assistant, who had been getting along well with Mo Kai over the past few days, was about to remind him to knock on the door and try to enter the consulting room when it was time.

But now that Mo Kai's attitude has changed, he is incredibly proactive. He's already waiting at the consultation room door with a price list in hand, without waiting for anyone to remind him.

So the assistants, who had nothing else to do, simply perked up their ears and regrouped as the gossip group, focusing on the results of Nan Zhuren's first consultation of the day.

Standing outside the consultation room, Mo Kai took one last look at his phone's clock and message notifications.

[It's time, but my senior hasn't given me a signal...]

The standard duration of a consultation is forty minutes.

If a counselor wants to extend the consultation time and does not want to be disturbed by an assistant, they will inform the assistant in advance during the consultation to avoid interrupting the consultation when the assistant enters the room according to procedure.

If, at this time, relaxation training or even hypnosis happens to be taking place in the consultation room, then all the previous efforts will be wasted.

However, my senior brother hasn't messaged me, which means either I need to follow the procedures and go in to give a quote, or he forgot the time and I need to remind him, or he's tied up with visitors and I need to go help him...

Having made up his mind, and recalling the relevant renewal scripts, Mo Kai reached out his hand—knock knock knock.

"Enter."

As soon as the door opened, before Mo Kai could even go inside, the dense chatter of the visitors poured out.

"Professor Nan, it's true that professionals like you have professional analytical methods. I've talked to many friends about my employee before, and none of their analyses were as insightful as yours!"

The visitor was in high spirits, and it seemed that the consultation had gone very well.

Mo Kai peeked inside and saw Boss Xue leaning forward, his face beaming with excitement.

"Teacher Nan, to tell you the truth, besides wanting to talk to someone myself, I also wanted to ask you to treat my employee!"

"How much do you charge for long-term consultations here... Oh, this young man is in charge of sales for this area, right? Come, come—"

Boss Xue waved directly at Mo Kai, looking impatient.

Mo Kai was somewhat dazed—how did he end up being the one in a passive position?

He hasn't uttered a single word of the memorized sales pitch yet, is he about to close another deal?

Is work really that easy?
“He’s my junior colleague, and he’s working part-time as a consulting assistant here.” Nan Zhuren corrected Boss Xue’s form of address, indicating that Mo Kai was not a salesperson, in order to protect the young man’s professional identity and self-esteem.

"As for psychological counseling, buying courses for others is generally only applicable to guardians seeking help for their minor children," Nan Zhuren explained. "For adults, we generally only accept counseling from those who come to us seeking help."

“Moreover, your employee’s condition may not be a ‘disease’ or ‘treatment’, so it’s not quite appropriate to use the word ‘treatment’…” Nan Zhuren’s language was extremely precise.

Mo Kai was momentarily dazed. What was Teacher Nan doing, pushing the client away?
Boss Xue didn't seem to care much, waving his hand and making a "don't be so formal with me" expression.

"I understand, I understand, but Teacher Nan, you also offer that P service here, right?"

Nan Zhuren blinked: "EAP? Employee Assistance Program?"

Mr. Xue clapped his hands: "That's right, when I cooperate with some large companies or foreign enterprises, they also have this...EAP service! This includes services such as hiring consultants to provide counseling for employees, right?"

Nan Zhuren nodded.

“I want to buy this service long-term, and have my employees come here regularly for consultations,” Mr. Xue added. “If he doesn’t come, I will. Either he or I will come; there’s always one of us who needs to come and talk to him.”

Mo Kai was completely bewildered. What was the purpose of this visitor?
The noise inside was so loud that it could be heard by people at the front desk and even in the office area.

This left the members of the gossip group looking at each other in bewilderment once again.

Meeting a client, accepting consultations, and developing a long-term case—at most, this shows that the boss's apprentice is indeed skilled at consulting and has a high conversion rate. But what kind of strategy is this client who not only wants to buy long-term consultations for themselves but also for others, even forcing others to come for consultations as well?
After hearing what Boss Xue said, Nan Zhuren twitched the corners of his mouth, revealing a troubled expression.

Bai Qinghua's company does not appear to offer EAP (Employee Assistance Program) services.

Mr. Xue, being a businessman, understood immediately: "I get it. You guys are also undecided and want to discuss it with the boss, right?"

He stood up abruptly, grabbed Mo Kai, and pulled him outside, saying, "Come on, take me to your boss."

Mo Kai was still confused: "Our boss doesn't come here often..."

"I'll be there today!"

Shanshan, the receptionist who had been listening to the visitor's reactions for almost the entire time, suddenly interrupted.

“Our boss usually doesn’t come in even once a week, but today he told us in advance to clean the office because he has guests coming over soon!”

The receptionist smiled and looked in the direction of Boss Xue, but her gaze went straight past him and landed on Nan Zhuren.

He delivered a timely assist.

Mr. Xue's eyes lit up upon hearing this: "Alright, then I'll wait a bit!"

Shanshan, the receptionist, smiled and led Mr. Xue to the reception room, deftly pouring him tea.

The gossip group watching from afar looked on with envy: "What a great start!"

……

--Snapped.

With a snap of his fingers, Mo Kai snapped back to reality.

He saw Nan Zhuren slowly retract his right hand and heard Nan Zhuren ask, "What about the information on the next visitor? When is he coming?"

“—Ohhhh!”

Mo Kai hurriedly returned to his workstation. He had originally planned to give Nan Zhuren the materials when he returned, but it seemed that Nan Zhuren wanted to adjust his state directly in the consultation room.

Mo Kai quickly returned after changing the price list in his hand into a folder.

But before handing it over, he couldn't help but ask, "Senior, do you want to take a break? If not, I can have the visitor fill out a few questionnaires first..."

This is also a work trick that Mo Kai and his assistants surnamed Huang have learned in the past few days, which is used to give counselors rest time during busy consultation schedules.

"Take a break? Are you tired?"

Nan Zhuren blinked, revealing a radiant expression, as if the consultation he had just received was merely a warm-up.

……

To be fair, this consultation was indeed very easy; for Nan Zhuren, even the "emotional readjustment" technique wasn't necessary.

Close your eyes and rest for a while, waiting for time to slowly pass.

Knock knock—the second inquiry of the morning has arrived.

"Please come in."

Nan Zhuren spoke loudly.

The door clicked open and they came in.
