After they finished dinner, they went to the KTV in the mall non-stop, because it was Christmas Eve, there were a lot of people singing, so when they went in, there were no small bags to big bags, so they went directly to the luxury private room, Li You advocated buying something outside, and secretly brought it in, Xu Wei originally promised to be good, but because the luxury private room has a minimum consumption, so after going in, he bought a lot of things,

Li You looked at the fruit plate pushing into the private room, snacks or something, and silently stuffed the potato chips and drinks in the backpack back......

Although the four of them are good friends, Li You joined later, there were only Xu Wei, Kong Zi and Yao Yao before, the three of them lived in the same community since they were very young, and the three of them were about the same age, so they became good friends.

Later, after going to high school, I met Li You in the same class, Li You's grades in the class are very good, often the first place, if it is not him, then the first place position must be Xu Wei's,

Obviously two people who are competitors, but gradually they became good friends, and then the team of the three of them became four people, after a long time, Li You fell in love with Yao Yao, who was good-looking, had a good temperament, and had a good personality, Yao Yao knew that he couldn't hear it, and when he could work so hard to get the first place, he admired him a lot, so Li You successfully chased her.

The gap in high school is often just through the exam papers, and then you can see the gap in grades, and the love in high school is so simple and pure, regardless of the future and only the present, never mixed with anything else......

Li You's family background is actually quite good, his parents are both working-class, he is the only son in the family, and his parents provide for him to go to college, which can be said to be effortless at all, Li You has always thought so......

But the surgery to cure his ear before school started cost him almost all of his family's savings, and although his parents didn't say it, their family's standard of living began to plummet since then.

After going to college, the connection between the three of them is not only limited to buying snacks together after class, Li You gradually felt the gap between himself and them, so he often alienated them a little intentionally or unintentionally.

And what Li You is most afraid of is having dinner with them, shopping or something, sometimes going out with them, you have to spend half a month's living expenses, in order not to let them look down on you, Li You has been slapping his swollen face and becoming fat,

And because Xu Wei is in the same class as himself and lives on the same floor, Li You usually doesn't go out to work, for fear that they will know their situation, so he blindly asks for money from home.

Yao Yao gradually discovered that when they went out together, Li You always didn't buy anything, and the things he bought for him, he either said he didn't like it, or it didn't look good.

Later, it was Xu Wei who discovered his abnormality......

Xu Wei came back late that day, and when he returned to the dormitory, he was about to close the dormitory, Xu Wei just walked into the dormitory building, and heard the sound of a quarrel in the corner......

"Just say whether you give it or not! If you don't give it to me, you'll starve to death!! ”

"What do you mean that I spend a lot of money, what kind of people is your colleague's son with, what kind of people am I with, I spend money on our savings here!!"

"If you're stressed, I'm not stressed? Others go shopping casually, and one afternoon is my living expenses for half a month~, what did I say!! ”

"What do you mean I can't compare with them, what's wrong with me? Why can't I compare with them, I can only compare with those who ask for food, right? ”

"If you just let me compare to the one who asks for food, then why do you want me to go to college!! Why do you want to help me cure my ears, why do you want to give birth to me!! ”

After speaking, Li You dropped his mobile phone on the ground and shouted: "!! ”

Xu Wei hid in the corner with a shocked face, he really couldn't believe it, and kept asking himself, is this Li You, who has been with him for more than three years? He is usually gentle and elegant, how could he become like this, usually even Kong Zi says more dirty words than him, what happened to him today?

Xu Wei hid in the corner and didn't go out, for fear that the two of them would be embarrassed to meet at this time, so he waited until he heard the sound of the door closing when he entered the bedroom, Xu Wei stretched out his head to look and walked back to the bedroom.

Xu Wei thought about it all night that day, listening to the tone, Li You should have been on the phone with his parents, he didn't expect Li You to treat his parents like this, but after thinking about it, it may be that the three of them usually spend money lavishly, Li You just doesn't want to be different from them.

So after that day, Xu Wei would take care of Li You's feelings every time he went out, and he didn't buy it if he could, and when he went out with Li You, he often suggested going to some more affordable places.

And what Xu Wei didn't know was that Yao Yao knew about Li You's situation a little earlier than him, that was the first time they went out on the crazy street, it was the summer vacation after the college entrance examination, Yao Yao took a fancy to a silk scarf in the mall, and felt that it looked good to tie his hair usually, so he had to go to the checkout,

At that time, Li You didn't understand anything, and he didn't have any concept of consumption, so he directly took the silk scarf and said: "I'll send you~"

At that time, Yao Yao rejected him, but Kong Zi next to him said something vigorously, it's good to have a boyfriend, and so on, after Li You heard it, he was satisfied with the thief in his heart, and then he took the silk scarf and said:

"Give your boyfriend a chance to perform~"

Yao Yao didn't fight with him anymore, so he gave him the silk scarf, and then he and Kong Zi continued to shop.

When Li You walked to the cashier to check out, he happily asked:

"How much?"

The cashier swept it and said, "599 yuan, may I ask if it is cash or a credit card?" ”

Li You, who was digging out the money, instantly turned into horror with a smile on his face, and asked in disbelief: "How much?" How much? ”

The cashier patiently said again: "599 yuan, sir!" ”

Li You looked at the wallet, there were three red ones in it, so he silently closed the wallet and said:

"That...... I'll take a look at the others and check out together in a moment! ”

The cashier saw his movements and said politely, "Okay! Take a look again! ”

Li You didn't dare to look up, he directly said thank you, ran away in a gloomy manner, and then rushed directly into the fitting room, pulled the curtain, and dialed his mother's phone.

"Mom~ You will give me three hundred yuan immediately!"

"Three hundred? Didn't you already give you three hundred in the morning? ”

At this time, Li You had never lied, and stammered: "I...... I...... I accidentally lost it, and my classmates have to divide their meals equally, and I can't get the money, so you can just put it into my new bank card! ”

"Hey~, then you send me the bank card number...... How could you lose it? I can't give you money! ”

"Thank you, Mom, I'll pay attention next time~ Hurry up!"

Li You waited anxiously in the fitting room, for fear that Yao Yao would call him, and also afraid that Xu Wei would suddenly break in, more than ten minutes later, the mobile phone received a text message of the incoming account, and then his heart finally settled down, so he walked out of the fitting room and finally settled the account.

Yao Yao and Kong Zi walked around for a while, seeing that he hadn't come back yet, Yao Yao took advantage of Kong Zi's time to try on clothes, went to the cash register, and saw Li You at the cash register from a distance, and was just about to walk up, a boy next to him said to a girl:

"Did you see the guy at checkout?"

“...... Hmm~, what's wrong? ”

"I didn't have money to go shopping, so I just called my mother in the fitting room next to me to ask for money? It's only 300 yuan, and what kind of money is lost! You say it's not funny! ”

"Alas~, if a woman follows this kind of person, she will be unlucky~"

Yao Yao listened to the words of the two of them clearly, and looked at Li You who was the only one on the cash register, and knew that the person they were talking about was him, and the woman who had fallen into bad luck was obviously herself......

Yao Yao looked at Li You's back and walked over firmly, slapped his hand on the table at the cash register, pressed the silk scarf that was about to be wrapped and said:

"I'm sorry, I don't want this!"

The cashier and Li You were both stunned, and Li You asked with a blank face:

“...... Why not? Don't you like it? ”

Yao Yao thought of the words of those two people, so he said, "That's it...... After thinking about it, I think it's okay! Nothing special! ”

When the cashier heard her words, he hurriedly explained: "This is my family's main item this quarter, and it sells very well!" And the new clothes are all a series of ......"

Although Li You didn't know what the cashier was talking about, he knew that it was a good idea anyway, so he took Yao Yao's hand and said:

"I think it's really good-looking, so buy it! Isn't it your birthday in a few days, just let me give you a birthday present! ”

Yao Yao was embarrassed to refuse again, so he said, "...... Oh well ~ thank you ~"

After Li You and Yao Yao finished settling the account, the moment they turned their heads, they saw the pair of men and women looking at them just now, Yao Yao didn't avoid it at all, took Li You's hand and looked at them, Li You asked:

"Do you know anyone?"

Yao Yao hurriedly avoided his gaze and said, "I don't know~"

Since that day, Yao Yao has not asked Li You for any gifts, and if he encounters a birthday or something, he will tell Li You in advance that he doesn't need to prepare anything, and when he wants to give him a gift, he will also send it with Xu Wei and Kong Zi, not wanting him to have a burden, just like this Christmas.
