Mo Kai, after all, is a new assistant who has just graduated from undergraduate school, where he learned the most standardized and idealized knowledge.

Such a novice would definitely need a period of adjustment from 'ideal' to 'reality' during his work process.

Given Mo Kai's background and social skills, he surely already knows about such a process and thus has been mentally prepared, even looking forward to a process where he can validate what he has learned.

This is also one of his internship goals.

However, during his time at the company, he happened to be under Nan Zhubin.

Nan Zhubin's work style, on the other hand, is overly professional, and he seldom takes Mo Kai to encounter things at the 'reality' level.

As a result, Mo Kai either does consultations with Nan Zhubin or studies cases on a daily basis.

So now, faced with an issue, Mo Kai wonders for a moment—in this industry, is Liu Jiahang's behavior actually 'permissible'?

Even—'Is it common'?

As for why Mo Kai held this matter in and waited over a month after Nan Zhubin's exam ended, instead of approaching Bai Qinghua, it's actually understandable.

After all, he is merely an 'official disciple' of the sect, not to mention having a close relationship with Bai Qinghua, who he isn't even familiar with.

Towards such a big professor like Bai Qinghua, whom he barely sees, he still has a kind of reverent attitude that makes him not dare to speak much.

That's why he waited until now.

Nan Zhubin looked at Mo Kai.

As expected, Mo Kai continued to say, "Senior, I'm still quite unsure about the reality of the relationship between consultants and visitors, how to grasp that 'boundary'."

"My previous psychological consultation class teacher once gave us an example during the lecture...I have always found it very strange."

Mo Kai's topic was slightly off-track, but Nan Zhubin listened quietly.

After holding it in for a month, the young man's mind was definitely filled with all kinds of thoughts. It's time to give him a chance to express them.

From another perspective, for Mo Kai, this is also a very critical learning stage in his career.

It is as significant as learning the first case.

Mo Kai continued, "At that time, our teacher told us she had a very wealthy visitor. There was a time when she was about to buy a new house, but unfortunately, didn't have enough money, and was worried that someone else might take the house. Then she remembered that she had a visitor with a good economic condition, so she borrowed two million from that visitor… I didn't understand this."

Luckily, the part you didn't understand wasn't 'why buy a house and borrow money.'

"My teacher told me that her consultation with the visitor had ended, and although their consultation relationship ended, they maintained a good friendship, so she could borrow money…but I thought, once the consultation ends, shouldn't the relationship also be cut off? And generally, don't consultants not have visitors' contact information? Even if they see them on the street, they should pretend not to know them?"

"That teacher told us this example, to show that her relationship with the visitor was very good…"

"And she herself is also a very capable consultant, a supervisor, often traveling to other places to give lectures or consultations, so… in such cases, I get very conflicted."

Mo Kai looked into Nan Zhubin's eyes: "Such an accomplished teacher wouldn't say something evidently wrong in class, right?"

"And Manager Liu, since he is a manager at Teacher Bai's company, he should also be one of the top consultants in the industry, right? What he does shouldn't be particularly, um… uh…"

At this point, Mo Kai hesitated a few times, seemingly racking his brains to find some less harsh wording.

...

Nan Zhubin looked at Mo Kai.

"Liu Jiahang is wrong, and very absurdly so."

Nan Zhubin said.

Mo Kai abruptly raised his head.

In the young assistant's eyes, Nan Zhubin seemed to see something that had vaguely stalled, showing a tendency to curve off the right path. In this moment, it was corrected and began to grow in the original direction again.

Nan Zhubin then added, "You are right."

Phew—

Now, any of those anxieties and confusions from Mo Kai's previous verbal expression completely disappeared.

He also quieted down.

The reason the young man had so many questions was merely the suspicion that his own perspective was too low, so he wanted to rely on someone who stood higher in professionalism and had a broader vision to take a look.

Now that he confirmed he was not the problem, his mindset improved.

As for the notion that "a person with strong professional abilities isn't necessarily more moral," Mo Kai naturally had long understood at his age.

Mo Kai smoothly transitioned to the next stage: "Teacher Nan, what should we do next…"

He gestured a little with his hands.

Nan Zhubin chuckled lightly, "Here's what we'll do next."

As he said this, Nan Zhubin took out his phone, preparing to make a call, then suddenly paused and asked Mo Kai, "When does Liu Jiahang usually have consultations with the visitor named Li Lingling?"

"Not sure generally, but the most recent one is this afternoon, starting at two o'clock." Mo Kai answered confidently, having evidently done some prior checking.

Looks like this kid is indeed very concerned about this matter.

Nan Zhubin nodded, and further asked, "When is my consultation scheduled for today?"

"Starting at three in the afternoon, until six," Mo Kai explained, "because you told me only yesterday at noon, needing 24 hours of preparation in advance, so there's no arrangement in the morning, and in the afternoon…"
