At half past nine, I arrived at the "old place" where Yang Fan asked me on time, and I didn't see Yang Fan after walking around for a while, I thought about calling him, after all, this kid is sometimes very unreliable about the concept of time.

Just as I picked up my phone and was about to make a call, suddenly there was a burst of white light behind me, and a car appeared behind me at a rapid speed, and I subconsciously raised my hand to block it, and at the same time tried to dodge. It was too late, but it was fast, and with the sound of the car, it had already driven by......

Hmmm, the car stopped, and I didn't seem to have any problems.

"Hahahaha, look, look at your scared look!" The high beams were turned off, and a person stepped out of the car, allowing me to see his face and the car he was driving.

Yang Fan drove a Ford Mustang.

"I, I'm just joking with you!No, no, why are you standing still there?" Yang Fan laughed until one hand covered his stomach, and the other hand was a little my shoulder.

"Isn't it fun?!fuck your uncle!" I said with a flick of my arm, shaking off the hand he had placed on my shoulder, and with a cold face.

"Oops, I was wrong, I just wanted to play a joke with you, let's go, go drink with my buddy!"

"How are you going to drive when you go back later?" I stopped and looked at Yang Fan in a daze.

"Silly, don't you call a substitute driver? Don't you don't believe that I have a car on the phone? Don't you drive it out for you to see, why don't you go up and take a spin twice? While we haven't drunk yet. ”

I looked at the white mustang, shining like a white light in the night, but after thinking for a moment, I said, "Forget it, another day, there's still time anyway." ”

Yang Fan stopped insisting and walked into the Qing bar called "Old Place" with his arm around my shoulders. For me and Yang Fan, this is indeed an "old place", we have often come to play since high school, the boss and we are very familiar with each other, and it is also because of his enthusiasm for people, so he can open a green bar for so many years. However, judging from the past two years, it seems that it has begun to decline, and the competition in the industry is too great.

As soon as the two of us went inside, Dong Ge (the owner of the Qing bar) recognized us, and after a few words of greeting together, he said that he would directly invite one of us to drink a cocktail in the evening, and choose at will, but the other drinks could not be exempted, and they could be discounted. Brother Dong said, this Qing bar has witnessed Yang Fan and I from the appearance of hairy boys to now becoming elites in the workplace.

I smiled and said a few polite words, Brother Dong let us have fun, he had to go and greet the other guests first. As soon as the people left, Yang Fan muttered in a low voice, "We have also witnessed the whole process of your Qing bar from prosperity to decline", look, can't you speak well? I rubbed my elbow on his arm in dissatisfaction.

"I'm telling the truth. ”

......

When drinking, Yang Fan told me where he got this car, it turned out that the real owner was not him, but the director who took him to Chongqing to develop before, Yang Fan said that his director planned to travel abroad during the New Year, and the car was not used for the time being, so it was cheap Yang Fan's kid, so the car was his during the New Year, but I always felt that this was not very reliable.

In addition to these, we began to talk about work, and I told Yang Fan about the fact that I have now opened a company with Qi Min, but I just talked about it briefly. At that moment, I felt that there was an endless conversation between us, and even if it was dawn, we might not be able to finish talking.

I took a sip of the cocktail that was about to be drunk, handed Yang Fan a cigarette, and at the same time lit one myself, and said, "By the way, you have been to Chongqing for about half a year, and after the New Year this time, do you plan to take Xu Qing over to develop together?"

Yang Fan frowned and waved his hand and said: "Oh, why do you talk to me about this every time you contact me!

In his words, I could see his impatience, so I had to slow down my tone and say, "Okay, okay, then you can decide for yourself, let's not talk about this matter for now." Hey, look at how you've been mixing over there for the past few months, it seems to be very good, look at these coconuts, look at this Nike, and the Longines you're wearing on your hand, damn it, you're about to become a nouveau riche, right?!" I looked at his name tags one by one, and I was still estimating in my heart that there were definitely more than 10,000 things in this body.

Yang Fan said with pride, and said in a brisk voice: "It's okay! Mainly with the right person, our director looks up to me, and is willing to give me a lot of orders, many times to talk about customers are called to me, but a little uncomfortable, every time I let me block the wine, you can see my belly." He didn't forget to pat his stomach with his hand.

No wonder I feel that this kid has indeed grown a lot of alcohol when he comes back this time, and this belly doesn't look like he's been "pregnant" for half a year, but three or four months.

"How did I find out that as soon as I talk about your work, you immediately mention your director, and then the state and expression of the whole person are different, like being beaten with chicken blood. I leaned closer to him and said in a low voice: "Don't forget that there is Xu Qing, besides, your director is divorced, and he is five years older than you, don't be stupid!"

"No, Cheng Ting, you are sick! We just have a normal working relationship, she admires me, I worship her, that's all!" He turned his head to the other side a little angrily, as if he was deliberately avoiding my gaze, and there was a hint of dodging in his eyes.

I was silent for a while, smiled and said, "Okay, that's what my buddy said, remind you, it doesn't mean anything else." I pulled him on the shoulder, "Come, keep drinking, raise goldfish!"

"That's pretty much it. ”

......

We stopped drinking until 12 o'clock, because next year is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and I don't want to sleep too late during the holidays, so I should go back, so that my mother will not have an opinion on me. Yang Fan called a substitute driver, originally wanted me to get in his car and send it back together, but our respective homes are in the opposite direction, and I also said that I want to take a walk away from the smell of wine, and I will take a ride back later.

After Yang Fan got into the car, he opened the window and stretched out his hand to wave it, signaling goodbye to me, and then there was a roar, and the white wild horse shuttled into the depths of the night.

I watched the wild horse fade away until it was completely out of sight, then I turned and walked to the other side, and with some abrupt light, I lit a cigarette, and the last one was left, and threw the empty cigarette case into the trash. When Yang Fan came back this time, I found that he had changed, but I can't say exactly where he changed. The director lent him a mustang to drive home, and the relationship seemed not so simple at first glance, and the arrogance with which he spoke, combined with the luxury of this body, I could not recall the way he used to look in my memory.

While distance produces beauty, it will also make the relationship between people gradually become estranged, and what I am most afraid of is that the relationship between myself and Yang Fan is like the opposite direction of our respective homes, and gradually drifting apart. However, this may just be my own thoughts, from high school to now, the brotherly relationship between us for so many years is not so fragile.

......

New Year's Day.

Even though I lay down to sleep as soon as I got home last night, I woke up at 8 a.m. and still felt a bit of a headache because it had been a long time since I had drunk as much as I did last night. After getting up and washing, my mother had already made breakfast, and Cheng Yu hadn't gotten up yet, so I didn't wait for him, and just ate breakfast with my mother and Cheng first.

Looking at the bowl of fragrant white porridge, I couldn't wait to finish the first bowl and continue to fill the second bowl. Not to mention, in a big city like Guangzhou, when you rush to work on weekdays, there is no time for you to eat a bowl of white porridge, you can only nibble on bread or something, even if you eat a rice roll, it is a luxury for time.

"Hey, you kid eat slowly, eat vegetables, why do you drink white porridge?"

I smiled and said, "Mom, don't you know, when I go home, I can drink a bowl of white porridge for breakfast, how comfortable it is!"

"What's the matter, don't the people over there drink white porridge?" said Lao Cheng as he looked at me with a strange expression.

"It's not like that, it's mainly because I'm in a hurry to go to work, and I rarely get to drink white porridge. ”

After a while, my mother began to ask me about my work, "This time, I see that you can give thousands of yuan to your family when you come back, are you doing a good job?"

I almost choked on what my mother said, "Mom, that's 'Star International', not 'Star International' as you said." ”

"That's not the point, okay? ”

I immediately hesitated, should I tell the second elder in front of me that I had resigned for more than a month and started a company with Qi Min? I was afraid that if I said this, they would ask more questions, Lao Cheng also opened a company when he was young, if he knew, he would definitely tell me those things that were not good in entrepreneurship.

Just when I hesitated, the prompt of the mobile phone suddenly rang, and I just had an excuse to go to see the information, and then got up and walked to the Bogu shelf next to me to pick up the phone, that is, ...... Konin sent me a message, a text that was neither long nor short, and before I could read it carefully, she sent another paragraph, and then my whole body became energetic and realized that things were not so simple......
