I just got off work when I got a call from Lao Yang. His tone sounded a little low. He said, "See you at the usual place tonight, Lao Yao!" "
The so-called old place is just a barbecue stall in the back street. Lao Yang and I have been friends for more than ten years, but we are not old at all. We are only in Grade Three.
In the past, every time there was a happy event to celebrate or a hurdle to get through, we would meet at the barbecue stall and tell each other our worries.
When I arrived, Lao Yang's face was red, and he seemed to have drunk too much.
As soon as he sat down on a stool, he wiped his tears with one hand and took my arm with the other and said, "Lao Yao, do you think I'm bad?" My girlfriend ran away with someone else? "
I pulled back my long hair messed up by the wind, pretended as if nothing had happened, grabbed the mutton string on the table and tore a few mouthfuls: "Come on, what's wrong this time?"
He cried like a child. It seems that he is serious this time. The sadder he is, the more my heart aches.
Think of that sentence: what you can't get is always in turmoil, and what you prefer is fearless. Just as Lao Yang did to his girlfriend, so did I to Lao Yang.

When I was a student, Lao Yang traveled around and used some beautiful women to pick up girls. I am his messenger and shield.
In the second year of high school, the school will hold a New Year's Day party. I didn't want to attend, but the class teacher said I had to attend. No way, I had to bite the bullet and rehearse the program with my classmates in the classroom after school.
Lao Yang from the next class went home with me, but his eyes were fixed on the monitor of our class. I didn't expect the monitor who never kept a straight face to sing so well.
Since then, Lao Yang has been crazy about it, asking me to write him a love letter, asking me to know the monitor's preferences and habits. On the grounds of accompanying me to rehearse, I brought coke and snacks to please everyone, mainly to please the monitor.
Later, they got together, but it didn't take long for them to separate because it was inappropriate.

Lao Yang has several girlfriends, and his personality characteristics are completely different. I asked him what kind of girl he really liked, and he said that any girl with long hair, a little clingy and cooking skills would do.
After graduating from high school, I began to grow long hair and learned a lot of cooking in my spare time in college. Lao Yang is already an old hand in love. Seeing my change, he pretended not to see it. He knows the secret in my heart, but he pretends not to know it.
But it doesn't matter, we can still be best friends without breaking this enough paper.
Until after work, Lao Yang asked me to go to a barbecue stall. He brought his girlfriend Yuan Yuan, who should be his ex-girlfriend now. I was surprised when I first saw Yuanyuan.
She has no long hair and is not clingy. She was wearing a black leather coat with her hands in her pockets. She looks cool. Instead, Lao Yang embraced her shoulder happily.
Lao Yang raised his right hand and put up three fingers, saying, "Old Yao, you are my best friend. Give me a witness. If I don't marry Yuanyuan in the future, I will never get married in my life. " Then I kissed Yuan Yuan's face and Yuan Yuan gave him a disgusted look.

The first time I met Yuanyuan, I felt that she didn't see the good relationship between me and Lao Yang like other girls. She gave me a set of superficial things and a set of behind things.
But even so, I still like before, when he has a girlfriend, I automatically stay away, for fear that his girlfriend will misunderstand me. Even if he invites me to dinner as usual, I will find various excuses to refuse.
Since Lao Yang was with Yuanyuan, he seems to be a different person. He often takes photos of himself and Yuanyuan in his circle of friends. He heard how happy a girl with a boyfriend who can take pictures was, so he took classes online to learn how to take pictures and retouch pictures.
He has never shown love in a circle of friends before. It's too vulgar.
Yuanyuan is neither too good nor too bad for Lao Yang. Occasionally, I am touched by the delicious food in Lao Yang, but most of the time it is cold. She is busy with work and has great ambitions.
This world is so wonderful that people who are playboys are the most infatuated in the end.
Lao Yang doesn't have great ambitions, and his work is just muddling along. After meeting Yuanyuan, he began to work hard. He was afraid that he couldn't keep up with her footsteps and that she would abandon him, so he rushed forward desperately.
On Yuanyuan's birthday, Lao Yang invited many friends to his home, so did I. Yuanyuan and her friends are sitting in the living room chatting. Lao Yang is busy cooking dinner in the kitchen, and I help him.
Lao Yang went in and out, pouring tea for them and washing fruits for them. He is very busy. Finally, there was a table full of dishes, most of which Yuanyuan liked to eat. Lao Yang sat next to her and kept cleaning up the dishes for her.
Everyone really envies Yuanyuan for having such a good boyfriend. Yes, I envy it, too. I remember Lao Yang said that he wanted to find a girlfriend who could cook. Finally, he wants to control the round stomach and her heart.
When he was chatting with me, he said, "Yuanyuan is different from other girls. She is not clingy, but I want to see her all the time. I want to do everything for her and give her all the good, even if she is indifferent to me. As long as I love her. "
It pains me to see him go to great lengths to please Yuanyuan.

The past is vivid. Now, watching Lao Yang cry, I really hope that he is still the Lao Yang who is fooling around and full of confidence in everything. He said, "Why do I work so hard, but Yuanyuan still leaves me?"? I paid for her, but she left with her first love. "
Maybe Yuanyuan never disliked Lao Yang. At that time, Yuan Yuan was breaking up with her first love. In order to be angry with her first love, she promised Lao Yang.
Even if Lao Yang's beauty is impeccable, it can't match the first love's words: I know I'm wrong, come back.
Later, Lao Yang lay on the table, muttering to herself. I said, "Why can't you see me? Why the person I love is nothing in the eyes of others. " Lao Yang didn't speak. I don't know if he was really drunk or if he pretended to be asleep and didn't want to answer.
In fact, I also know that Lao Yang and I will never be lovers. We know each other like right-hand men, without impulse or passion.
Let's be friends, we won't break up, we won't leave, we won't become familiar strangers. I will try my best to find another blue sky.
Time has passed, and time flies. In the beautiful years, we quietly grew into adults, with happiness and regret.
But I will never forget that in my heart, I once loved someone deeply in the name of a friend for many years.
