Chapter 372: Chapter 369: Stanford Prison Experiment [4,000-Word Combined Chapter]

Zhang Zihao rated his emotions decisively.

But Nan Zhubin gave everyone 2 minutes to feel their emotions.

In this situation, Zhang Zihao’s decisiveness was undoubtedly a form of [defense].

Defense against his own emotions, against the current Group Counseling, and possibly against Nan Zhubin.

Nan Zhubin glanced over the students present and noticed two other people with similar reactions to Zhang Zihao.

The first student with a reaction similar to Zhang Zihao also started writing immediately, then began to zone out, lost in thought.

The second student with a reaction similar to Zhang Zihao first glanced around at all the other participants, observed everyone’s different reactions, especially noting Zhang Zihao’s actions, then met Nan Zhubin’s gaze. Embarrassed, he then wrote a number on his A4 paper.

Nan Zhubin noted the reactions of Zhang Zihao, Lei Haoyi Number One, and Lei Haoyi Number Two, along with their seating positions.

After waiting for about thirty more seconds, the students had mostly finished writing their emotion scores. But Nan Zhubin still waited a while longer to give the students enough time to organize their thoughts for the sharing session.

The two minutes were up, and Nan Zhubin began speaking on time, "Okay, I see everyone has written their emotion scores and pondered for a moment."

"Which student would like to share first?"

There was a brief silence, some looked down to avoid eye contact, some glanced around nervously, and some lowered their heads while glancing around nervously.

"I’ll start then." After a moment of hesitation, Lin Junkai was the first to raise his hand. Seeing Nan Zhubin nod slightly, he said, "I scored myself a [6]."

"Actually, my emotions haven’t been great recently, around a [3] or even a [2]. But lately, I completed a relatively thorough self-assessment, figured out a lot of things, so I gave myself a relatively positive score."

In the [1] to [10] emotion spectrum system that Nan Zhubin provided, a score of [5] and [6] are the thresholds.

[5] is "a bit sad," [6] is "a bit happy."

The two scores serve as the points of emotional transition and simultaneously represent the lowest limits of negative and positive emotions.

After Lin Junkai finished speaking, Nan Zhubin saw that after listening to him, the gazes of Lei Haoyi Number One and Lei Haoyi Number Two were fixed in front of them.

Clearly, they had reached a certain level of reflection.

On seeing this, Nan Zhubin nodded inwardly.

On one hand, Lin Junkai, who had been burdened by guilt and anxiety, evidently reached a certain level of reconciliation with himself after confronting Wang Rui;

Nan Zhubin felt genuinely happy about this.

On the other hand, Lin Junkai’s initiative to speak during the Group Counseling’s exchange session acted like an icebreaker; additionally, as a highly growing individual, his expression of growth could subtly prompt others in the group to reflect. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

In a one-on-one consultation, it would take a lot of effort just to lower the [defenses] of students like Lei Haoyi Number One and Lei Haoyi Number Two.

But now, with Lin Junkai as a highly growing [example] in the Group Counseling, just one shared statement could lead them to further reflection.

This is also one of the greatest benefits of group counseling.

Therefore, sometimes consultants carefully select Group Counseling members, making thoughtful considerations.

It’s just a pity.

Zhang Zihao wasn’t influenced by Lin Junkai.

Nan Zhubin looked at this student seated directly across from him.

[Arms crossed, upper eyelid raised.]

[One corner of the mouth tightened and lifted.]

[Oh, and a roll of the eyes.]

The apparent disdain was aimed at Lin Junkai.

Nan Zhubin noted this reaction mentally.

The Group Counseling continued.

After waiting for about two breath durations.

Li Mingchen picked up after Lin Junkai and was the second to respond, "I gave myself a score of 5. My emotions were lower before, but I recently got over some things, and maybe because I don’t have exams to rush, my mood has improved—so it’s a 5."

There is growth, but not as much as Lin Junkai, who directly confronted Wang Rui.

However, considering that Li Mingchen was able to consume himself to the point of suffering from [anxiety disorder] and [neurotic anorexia], he even fell before Xu Pengcheng.

Being able to grow to this extent is also considered delightful.

The third to speak was a student with a fringe who was partially involved in the event, "I also gave myself a 5. Because of some things—I think everyone knows what those things are. In general, I feel somewhat better recently, but overall it’s still tough."

...

After these three students finished speaking, there was a brief silence, and the transition to the next speaker wasn’t as smooth.

After enduring about five deep breaths, Nan Zhubin was mentally prepared to start exercising the Group Counseling host’s role to control the situation.

"I scored myself a 6." Zhang Zihao suddenly broke the silence.

While speaking, he made brief eye contact with Nan Zhubin, crossed his arms, hunched his back, and spoke very concisely.

"As for the reason, there’s nothing specific; it’s just how I’ve been feeling lately."

With Zhang Zihao leading, Lei Haoyi Number One and Lei Haoyi Number Two also chose similar responses, giving themselves scores of 5 and 6, respectively.
