Socially anxious kid and top-tier brother became popular after appearing on variety show

He Mu was really convinced.

He was still sad and frustrated about his relationship issues, and he hadn't figured out what to do about Zheng Yun. But he didn't expect that his good friend would be even more speechless than him.

He doesn't even know that Qin Zhao is so stupid?

He has been secretly married to the girl he likes for almost five years. He has already said that he likes her, so shouldn’t he work hard to make Zuo Yue change her opinion of him?

Moreover, based on He Mu's understanding of Zuo Yue, he felt that Zuo Yue might not be without feelings for Qin Zhao.

After all, with Zuo Yue's personality, if she really had no feelings for Qin Zhao, they would not necessarily get married after that incident, and it would be even more impossible for them to be secretly married for so long.

Qin Zhao listened to He Mu's words and lowered his head, "I always felt that Zuo Yue must hate me, so I feel very guilty."

He Mu almost understood just by hearing him say this.

Qin Zhao felt guilty and thought that Zuo Yue must hate him and not want to see him, so they probably spent very little time together.

He Mu didn't know what to say.

He couldn't care about his emotional affairs at all, and said to Qin Zhao patiently and irritably, "So, you really didn't try hard?"

Qin Zhao lowered his head. "I tried to get closer to her, but I felt that she really didn't like me, and she was getting further and further away from me."

Every time he saw rumors about Zuo Yue and other people, he felt sad, but he didn't even dare to ask.

And Zuo Yue talked to him less and less. It was only after she came to this live variety show that Zuo Yue would occasionally be calmer when facing him. But he always felt that Zuo Yue really didn't want to be with him.

If this is what Zuo Yue wanted, he didn't want to become a stumbling block that would hold Zuo Yue back.

But he really couldn't bear to leave.

Qin Zhao didn't know what to do anymore. Watching He Mu patiently analyzing the relationship between them, he seemed to have grasped the last straw.

"Then why did you try to get close to her?" He Mu didn't understand. He looked at Qin Zhao and began to doubt Qin Zhao's emotional intelligence.

Could it be that he had been wrong before, and that his good friend actually had an okay IQ but a negative EQ?

Qin Zhao remembered when they had just gotten married. That night, he sent a message to Zuo Yue in advance, saying that he would wait for her at home to come back for dinner. But that night, he heard Zuo Yue on the phone saying that she didn't know what to do now since they were already married, so they might as well take it one step at a time.

So he backed off.

He didn't want to be a despicable person. Even though he had done bad things at that time, he still wanted Zuo Yue to be happier.

So, he told Zuo Yue that although they were married, she was still free, and if she found someone else she liked, he would give her freedom.

When Qin Zhao was about to continue speaking, He Mu stopped him in time.

He Mu looked at Qin Zhao with an incredible expression, "So, what you mean is that not long after you got married, you told Zuo Yue that if she liked someone else, you would let her go at any time?"

Qin Zhao nodded gently, "I don't want to trap her in the name of marriage."

"You..." He Mu pointed at him with trembling fingers, and was unable to speak for a long time.

Is this really his good friend Qin Zhao?

So, he really had seen it wrong before.

How can Qin Zhao have a negative EQ? He is clearly mentally ill, right?

Now He Mu even feels that the reason why the relationship between the two of them has come to this point is because the two of them have never had a good discussion about the problem.

However, if this is really the reason, it is a pity that they missed a few years because of it.

"I think that since Zuo Yue has someone she likes, I shouldn't trap her." Qin Zhao said with confidence.

He Mu sneered, completely speechless.

"Then why did you marry her in the first place?"

Qin Zhao lowered his head, he couldn't explain it clearly.

Many things at the beginning seemed confusing, yet clear, but no matter what, they have come to this point.

"Honestly, Qin Zhao, I think you two should have been able to be together, but your emotional intelligence... is indeed a bit problematic."

Qin Zhao looked at him blankly.

He Mu said seriously, "Does Zuo Yue know that you like her?"

"I don't want to embarrass her because of my feelings." Qin Zhao's voice became even lower.

"I..." He Mu clenched his fists, unable to control his urge to beat someone up.

He really wanted to grab Qin Zhao by the collar and ask him if there was anything wrong with his brain.

But considering that Qin Zhao was very sad, he held back for the time being.

However, she couldn't help but insult him, "Who can be more upright than you?"

Qin Zhao: “…”

"Have you ever thought that you should have a good talk with Zuo Yue about your feelings for her, that you have always liked her, and that you think Zuo Yue has someone else she likes?"

Qin Zhao listened to his words and felt a little nervous. "I'm worried... that it will end badly with her..."

He Mu interrupted his tangled words, "Do you think there will be any situation worse than the current relationship between you and Zuo Yue?"

Qin Zhao paused.

He was worried, but now his relationship with Zuo Yue didn't seem to be getting any better.

Qin Zhao lowered his head, looking extremely conflicted and hesitant.

"Qin Zhao, you should find some time to have a good talk with Zuo Yue. I think there must be some misunderstanding between you two."

Qin Zhao opened his mouth, "Is this really okay?"

"I think it's right, but whether you want to talk to Zuo Yue or not is up to you."

He Mu didn't want to interfere too much in the other people's affairs.

He only expressed his thoughts because Qin Zhao was his friend.

However, He Mu really didn't expect that Qin Zhao was such a person who was so entangled in feelings.

Qin Zhao was silent for a long time.

He Mu originally wanted to leave here to let Qin Zhao think about it, but unexpectedly Qin Zhao said, "I will go and talk to Zuo Yue about my matter."

He Mu felt that this was only natural. He nodded and was about to leave when he heard Qin Zhao say, "Tell me about your problem, too. Maybe I can help you."

He Mu: “…”

He expressed serious doubts, "Your own emotional intelligence is so low, and you haven't figured out your own feelings for many years, how can you still help me?"

Qin Zhao looked at him and said, "A bystander sees more clearly."

"..."

He Mu sat down again and sighed.

Qin Zhao looked at him and said in a puzzled voice, "I never knew that you found a substitute. Did you read some bloody novel to do such a thing?"
