正當兩人轉身要走，水哥又叫住他們，硬是疊了一包捆了好幾層的袋子、壓在原本的紙箱上。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyjiMhx8VI
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkjwbM3ZvD
「招待的龍蝦！正式的那一批再跟你收錢。」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbOJe9siXV
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FjRmeFO66
水哥嘴裡還是刁著菸，視角瞟了孟瑤函一眼。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymLUsrY9Dm
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3on44xLDH
「給妹子當見面禮，好好照顧人家。不要讓好女孩，總是看不上我們鯨鰭灣。」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmZY3UvCWP
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8Ca0o8WoF
話中有話。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOvFiWwtRc
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zroGvb7xe
「別說得我好像虐待她。謝謝招待，東西我幫她收下便是。」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZs3YOAfcCY
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSXkMejXzw
水哥笑開，「今天沒跟你喝幾杯，就得放你走，太不甘願了！」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSVXEuA73v
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2z0hbOLZPA
「以後有的是機會。」侯邦彥立刻婉拒，「我要騎車，何況還載著她。」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9h3uH9fuf
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw86RmBwGc3
「也是，車後座的女生，男人得負責，今天先饒你。」水哥眨眨眼。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Sn93evcLU
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvyki9Rf60
孟瑤函跨上機車，離去前，對水哥揮揮手道別。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rpYEH9eMt
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJBV0zJxbT
「抓好！天上雲很厚，有可能會下雨，我要加速騎。」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡophl01Tyqf
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aPn51LP5C
「喔。」後方置物架全滿，她只能扶著侯邦彥的腰。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgaiLwsmxG
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXQOKU2BMZ
侯邦彥用力踩踏油門，野狼一聲長吼，排氣管冒出些白煙，兩人的身影逐漸消失在下一個彎道。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErC44KAcEp
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bfNWmMgAR
水哥望著他們，微笑，用力吸了一口菸，把菸灰往旁邊一撢。
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroumdEQHct
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlW81i3KQ8
回到六絃，兩人的晚餐出奇簡陋，僅僅是泡麵，什麼配料都沒加。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrUAcRUNZo
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQllguNlJoL
但阿逃的晚飯依舊豐盛，是一大碗手撕雞胸肉加紅蘿蔔丁泡飯。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlUHCH3UOw
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbA6bmdy19
當孟瑤函放下狗碗，阿逃一臉不敢置信，用試探的眼白望著她，不敢開動。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xHC16URjC
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKEBzw756Q
狗食比人食豐盛，這位工讀生是不是送錯餐？120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxasPq6IgQV
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAshCWV6uCJ
「欸，你放心吃吧！等一下大叔要教我殺龍蝦，所以今晚的宵夜一定是五星級的！泡麵雖然簡陋但也可口，平衡一下人生唄。」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaZ4RqIVlO
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NSKhGdv80
想到自己至少可以獨佔一隻龍蝦，孟瑤函笑容燦爛，揉了揉阿逃的頭頂。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYMwgtyiyQ
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBgHLZ5dCf
她認真地解釋原委後，阿逃確定自己沒誤解指令，就放心開動了。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNJ7A1GXDJ
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWsdT4q5zU
但，這世界上總有些事，想像起來很美好；自己經手時，卻完全不是那一回事。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnScP33Q3f
開始處理龍蝦五分鐘後……120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkreV3mzasT
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZENVisI18
「我的媽咪呀，太恐怖了吧！」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0CMYNhbs7
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbP1GQo38Hi
孟瑤函帶著厚厚的防護手套，緊緊按住龍蝦，固定在流理台上。她臉色慘白、雙手顫抖，努力把眼淚噙在眼角，不讓它低落。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7z1tjGnqu
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRare8oqmB5
但是侯邦彥還是不滿意，他拿著一支細鋼條，正戳進龍蝦尾部的泄殖腔，那鋼條還要繼續往龍蝦的頭穿刺。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCurOiFpOSv
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kRDZAP7eD
「再用力一點，一定要把龍蝦的身體拉直！現在這個步驟最重要，龍蝦烹飪前，一定要趁活把它的沙腸取出、血尿放乾淨，不然蝦肉留有腥臭，再貴的食材也是白搭。」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhq4KYm1SP
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcX2zYJcUh9
孟瑤函雖然勇敢獨立、但生活技能上還是溫室裡的小花，在家家務都由母親操手。偶而挑個菜蟲、就已經犯嘀咕。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMIXtL4f1i
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGySFQhv158
現在要她眼睜睜地看著大龍蝦被剝奪生命，還是用殘忍的手法。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBeJgiKnWx
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5h5eRu5auh
在極端壓力下，人們常戲稱『眼前出現跑馬燈』，但孟瑤函的腦子不知怎麼跳到奇怪的畫面，出現的是電影『滿清十大酷刑』中蕩婦騎木馬遊街的一幕……120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YJXCJDfJF
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEZgG80EqT
「這隻龍蝦又不淫蕩，為什麼要用這麼殘忍下流的方法虐殺它？」說完，眼淚也跟著滑下來。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyStcIXv8CU
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JWSKY5EgQ
聞言，侯邦彥翻了一個超級大白眼，無奈望向自己挑的幫手。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xIFX7i9me
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3weTBi3L6W
「雖然滿十八歲，可以觀賞限制級電影，還是要慎選。否則garbage in、garbage out，OK？」想必大叔也猜中她腦海的截圖。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhXXlcUawn
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ISdBWmYpP
「又不是我選的！失眠的夜晚，就只有後面頻道的老電影能看呀！」孟瑤函聳起肩膀，用肩膀的衣服勉強吸掉淚水。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiczFjvVXs4
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEVsEUIgpE
看著手握半死不活的龍蝦，她恨不得在佛祖耶穌阿拉下跪，用力懺悔。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCqmwW4cpp
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Pw0j8jrzM
所謂『婦人之仁』正是如此，侯邦彥嘆了一口氣。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYV3vjVlIqS
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrwtjgL0En
「妳動作再不利索一點，是要害我慢慢戳死它、還是賞它一個痛快？」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLUArIcl3f
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QDlE9yHUQ
「好啦，我知道啦。」她很不甘願應聲，用力吸鼻子。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5CVCnztBS
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOvDX5tVmK
「心腸這麼軟。還是我們只殺這一隻？妳就別吃，都拿回海邊放生？」他故意試探。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeiI2xBh5X
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41KXhUbf2F
「不行！」孟瑤函嗓門立刻大起來，態度也瞬間果決。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1US8IXylYy
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rPtukYqfY
「反正大錯已經鑄成，我有幫忙，我是共犯。我要吃，不准把我那一份A走！」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFC3Xuhj56b
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHvOqMpHAm
哭歸哭，DNA裡的吃貨基因，不會因為幾滴眼淚就被洗刷。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtcThrUCYT
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ98GpEO5NT
「呵呵。」侯邦彥從喉頭深處發出冷笑。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1EZ0O8NLK
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOYCKIkTpj
即使是來意不善的嘲笑，那低沉的嗓，緩緩的震動，撓得孟瑤函的耳根子癢癢。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDypHWCRQ5F
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡos6uNcVeqv
但，知道和做到，向來都是兩碼子事。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUWsyLvxq8
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPjyplp4Hu
「都叫妳使勁壓了！」孟瑤函的動作還是無法達到要求，侯邦彥嚴厲斥責，有些真動氣。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCvgy9ymhU
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgO9RjmlBCu
扭來扭去的龍蝦處理不好、浪費食材不說；萬一操作時他使勁過猛，鋼條戳傷孟瑤函，事情才嚴重。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoqJghMMD0
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNfIa2WVIq
「我有！但這隻龍蝦實在太大，我摁不住牠。」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVrvY3EvHR
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpx20tN4b7l
孟瑤函用全身的力氣試圖制伏與死亡搏鬥的龍蝦，滿頭大汗。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHuUeT9yWv
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9l75fM58UP
「真是的！」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzzl5mJMoG
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTtyWOZJAt
眼看孟瑤函Hold不住，侯邦彥往後一個滑步借位、繞到她身後，長臂一攬，左手直接覆蓋在孟瑤函的手背。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiK0dNgsw5
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNsjHh47zI
不理會自己的手緊貼孟瑤函，侯邦彥的掌加強施力，並且同時指導她。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTMU57Mbt6
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCmbOWkCgp
「好好感覺！這樣按著龍蝦的身體，跟砧板之間不能有空隙。透過觸覺，食材的一切妳都能感受到……」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuH94OQxPHB
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdi8PTShwd
他專注在教學上，完全沒注意兩人的身體貼得有多近，但孟瑤函注意到。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRFcV1MTwN
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIQIiWDRq1
心臟跳動的速率，立刻加速，害她原本就在顫抖的手，就更抖。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnnIz1kvo5
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5CwJaYrhe
侯邦彥只以為她害怕，把她手握得更緊。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRpVAP7mn1
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxVwO5wi1p
「當妳與它合而為一，才能真正掌握。我們不是故意要傷害它，所以動作一定要俐落，讓痛苦減到最低。烹飪是一種轉化，過程要心懷感謝與謙卑。」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLuMXFgDrl
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoJUaeWDi1
當侯邦彥低沉的嗓音在耳際緩緩響起，她的後背感受到他身體散發的溫度，說也奇怪，孟瑤函原本慌亂的心情，反而漸漸平靜下來。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwd6tVc4skp
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNRdeHkp7r
他的手掌覆蓋著她的，溫度透過手套傳給她。緊握鋼纖的那隻手大而有力，手指卻是那麼修長好看……120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5K5ajjxnao
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkY7IVjnAe
一瞬間，她有點懵，自己的注意力到底是放在手心的龍蝦？還是手背上的撫觸？120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJviwaLkd6S
回神哪！120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNHnKOFaLK
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7HZJOLtXL
還好，手掌下的龍蝦終於安靜下來。侯邦彥也在她面前示範了挑沙腸、放血的過程。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUS79hdrj5H
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLzeIHiu6P
處理一隻大龍蝦至少需要十五分鐘。好不容易搞定，孟瑤函卻在此時提出要求。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NC94VyAuO
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgR2iBp4iAo
「我想自己練習一次完整殺龍蝦、放血的過程。」她鼓起勇氣。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bWwTwikpv
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3WztmB01B
侯邦彥奇了。「妳不是害怕嗎？」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1g0PTAxxc
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwM9InynQVa
孟瑤函不否認。「可是這是個難得的技能，我這輩子搞不好只有在你身邊時，才學得到。所以我想自己操作看看，如果我做錯，拜託你糾正我！」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPg7bWsVXi0
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTDYwrJIWh
看她有心，侯邦彥就挑了最小的龍蝦遞給她，交由她處理。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaewerxWgB
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjMIAyMkzi
孟瑤函的手法偶而失準，侯邦彥在旁見狀立刻糾正。她的悟性不差，略微提醒，加上稍早的見習，立刻能把要訣掌握。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwYQo1020J
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXq3dGtJHf9
孟瑤函手裡還緊握龍蝦，放血的過程接近尾聲，侯邦彥望著一臉認真的她，眼神突然有些遙遠。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4AMsP6hL9
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbiAFMCnPq
「以前，我也跟妳一樣，在家裡從來沒有做過家事，更別說烹飪。出國留學回報家裡我要修餐飲管理，他們都跌破眼鏡。」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zGLwtY8MI
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7H6sIn7x4N
侯邦彥很少主動談起家人。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwb10p0u2o
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoXD0W6I1c
「你的廚藝超讚的！回國後有做給家人吃嗎？他們一定會以你的廚藝為榮！」孟瑤函一臉天真。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYR6vvnIdd
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡas01HqOuDd
侯邦彥只能苦笑。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YuQdbWXSx
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihl3Zei03o
「我家送我去留學，歐美名校聯盟的文憑，是基本門檻。他們希望我至少拿到大企業管理階層的資格、或是結交名流，讓家族地位晉升。」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2dM4yuKr0
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6ELeM2vv9
孟瑤函注意到他臉上表情的微妙變化。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYxO1NTKkq
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtXOKxnERT
「烹飪這種事，對老一輩來說，是下人的工作，難登大雅之堂。高中時我只是偷學吉他，被我爸發現，立刻把吉他摔爛，丟進垃圾車。我從英國回來，帶回這個廚藝資格，他們只覺得丟臉。」120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5t48j3iyfX
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZO9u3ngQgK
「啊？」她完全沒猜到是這種結局。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MF1qs9T0M
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6Ym7aZAnG
大家族的壓力，這話題對孟瑤函來說太沉重。她不知道該如何回應侯邦彥，只能繼續完成手上的事。120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSV2HQwIwpE
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFqB3NVqPk
而侯邦彥，除了指導她操作烹飪，再也沒有提及其他事。
