Who would study psychology unless they had some issues?!

Chapter 238: Chapter 236 Nan Zhubin’s Smile

Lin Lulin turned his head and saw a middle-aged, handsome man with a proper posture.

The man’s presence exuded an inexplicable righteousness, and the surrounding corporate executives couldn’t help but bow slightly in his presence, showing a kind of fear and timidity.

Well, this emotion might also be due to the other party’s position.

Beside the man was a girl dressed like a college student, inheriting the middle-aged man’s handsome traits to a stunning degree.

The girl had a conference badge on her chest, presumably entering as a student volunteer, then brought in by her father, an invited guest, to meet people.

From the density of the crowd around him, it was clear that "Director Xia" was the most prominent person at the scene.

But in Lin Lulin’s heart, he couldn’t help but feel wary, so he didn’t approach.

As an academic scholar, his behavior was not conspicuous and wouldn’t draw attention.

...

"Yes, yes, our Captain Zhang was able to recover so quickly thanks to your guidance. Otherwise, our bureau would be really troubled without such a key member," Director Xia passionately said to a professor. "If you have time, we’d love to invite you to our bureau to give some lectures and teach our officers how to conduct psychological counseling."

This mutually beneficial proposal was very much appreciated by the professor in front of him.

Especially with a series of compliments coming from the director, he couldn’t help but nod and laugh heartily.

"Tiantian, your Uncle Zhang recovered so quickly thanks to this teacher, you should thank him... Tiantian?"

Xia Tian, waking up from a dream, quickly put on a well-practiced social smile and greeted in a sweet voice.

However, Director Xia’s gaze had already followed his daughter’s line of sight to Lin Lulin, who had his back turned to them.

"Do you know him?"

Xia Tian nodded: "Dad, do you remember that Wang An who taught us before?"

Director Xia squinted his eyes slightly: "I remember."

"Wasn’t there a video online of a teacher confronting him back then?"

Director Xia examined Lin Lulin’s back: "I remember it was a young teacher."

Xia Tian nodded: "That teacher’s surname is Nan, and he’s a student of that professor."

Director Xia first felt a solemn respect, but then sensed something was off from his daughter’s expression: "Sounds like he’s a very capable teacher?"

The little girl sneered, saying nothing.

Director Xia raised his eyebrow, keenly sensing something amiss.

In the next second, Xia Tian felt a pull as her father dragged her toward Lin Lulin.

"Come on, let’s go say hi."

...

"Professor."

Upon hearing the greeting, Lin Lulin turned around, feeling his whole body tense up. This movement tugged at his chest wound, causing him to involuntarily hiss from the pain that he had almost stopped feeling.

"Are you okay?"

Being a psychology professor, Lin Lulin quickly adjusted his mindset: "Just a minor injury. The doctor advised me to rest, but this occasion is too important, and I have a report to deliver..."

Director Xia smiled admiringly: "The professor is really responsible."

Lin Lulin gave a wry smile: "Does Director Xia have any instructions?"

Director Xia waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, it’s just that recently we apprehended a teacher in the law department, and my daughter was in that class. Thinking about it now still gives me chills..."

This old father showed a look of embarrassment.

He then switched to gratitude: "I watched that online video, and it was a very young and exceedingly capable teacher who resolved it. I’ve heard he’s your student?"

Lin Lulin’s movement paused, feeling a vague pain in his chest.

He shook his head: "In fact, it’s a misfortune for my academic lineage. To be honest, I expelled that student long ago, and what he did has nothing to do with me."

Director Xia’s eyes narrowed slightly, but his mouth showed a contrasting puzzled smile.

At the same time, his body leaned slightly forward, showing curiosity.

"How did that happen?"

Lin Lulin cautiously said no more, just shook his head.

"If Director Xia wanted to meet him today, I’m afraid it wouldn’t be possible because he had no valid en—try?!!"

His tone was low and rueful at first, but suddenly rose when he uttered the last two words!

Along with the distortion in his voice, he completely lost control of his expression, his eyes wide like the Inspector Black Cat’s, while his tongue protruded like a listening ear.

This out-of-control appearance couldn’t help but shock both Director Xia and Xia Tian into stepping back.

Then, they instinctively looked in the direction of Lin Lulin’s gaze.

"Mr. Nan?!" Xia Tian followed with an almost instinctive outcry of joy.

Director Xia couldn’t help but narrow his eyes.

...

Nanh Zhubin was in a busy area, and it seemed he had already been observing the scene for a while.

Seeing everyone’s eyes on him, he gave an appropriate reaction.

—Smile.

A slow, gradual smile.

He used his almost terrifying muscle control to pull at the corners of his mouth, like a marionette pre-programmed to shift visibly from "expressionless" to "delighted."

The fact is, the same expression, depending on the receiver’s mood, can convey different emotions.

Xia Tian grew increasingly happy, unable to control placing her hands on her chest, shaking them like a flower.

Director Xia’s eyes narrowed fiercely, his gaze alternating in the order of "Nan Zhubin-Xia Tian-Nan Zhubin-Lin Lulin-Nan Zhubin-Xia Tian-Nan Zhubin-Xia Tian."

Meanwhile, Lin Lulin.

His face changed dramatically.

He retreated rapidly as if someone had kicked him, the pain in his chest ripping more intensely.

[Why is he here?]

[How can he be here?]

[What’s he here for?!]

[No... seeing him now is indeed a good thing!]

The composure and serenity he had when he entered moments ago vanished without a trace.

Without even greeting Director Xia, he turned and rushed toward Huang Xin in the front row.

"Xiao Huang, I need to leave now. Here’s your chance; you take over my report!"

At this moment, Lin Lulin was extremely grateful to have a student like Huang Xin, who, while not completely trustworthy, had sufficient capability.

At the very least, it was enough to read through and present a report.

"If you’re not ready, let the dean know and end the morning session early."

He didn’t wait for a response, leaving the stunned crowd behind as he hurried away.

And Huang Xin, self-absorbed, merely said, "Okay, professor."

Then buried his head down.

[As expected, once Nan Zhubin appears, he panics.]

[Panicking... is good. For such a formidable person to panic... that’s when opportunities arise.]

[And this is just the beginning!]
