夜深，我來到準備打烊的麵店。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTK5YIiYJy
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT37kRXT3KT
「一碗淨麵。」379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj98b8AN3GD
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2UwLTo4PX
老闆瞥了我一眼，不發一言，雙手來回忙著。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7tvpJbKo0
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgLkBYanfJ
他的臉色不大好看，正如我剛才點菜時的語氣也不禮貌。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwKugxnK2u
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeSav59WCH
我知道兩者沒有關連，他板著臉並非因為我的不禮貌，我的不禮貌並非因為他板著臉。各有前因，各有煩惱，毋須對號入座。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHTWiz3wwC
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgsMB8apfC
麵來了。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vqcy8XI0D
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdNKpzQmYg
名副其實的淨麵。沒有湯汁，沒有調味料，沒有配料。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchlvY8e5O8
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHAtDGhSti
「有可能好吃嗎？」老闆的臉色依然玄青，聲調卻是淡然如水，不含惡意。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9MOqqSK95
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjll9BC8i2
「我不需要它好吃。」我低頭吃麵，心裡希望老闆閉嘴。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulBfs6ltn4
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcqmo9HkLx
也許老闆不知道該如何接話，僅是站在原地，默默看我將淨麵吃清光。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuTQzCTVEa
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLslxxDucD
我掏出銀包取鈔票，老闆突然又開口：「你光顧這店不下百次，每次只點一碗淨麵。由於這種吃法太奇怪，我早在你光顧的第十次已然開始留意你。」379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2axT8smIRg
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljYIQ9WNnd
「有沒有甚麼特別發現？」我拿著鈔票的手沒有收回，繼續遞向老闆。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXflf5zF2c
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJr2mAavH9
「你從事服務業。」老闆有意無意地交叉雙手架在胸前，沒有接過鈔票。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIqB6k8sak
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlW6zn3xdbF
「何以見得？」我的手不自覺退回來。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQOCCXVCNo
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCoPvbPoVY
「每次你的臉色不大好看，語氣也不禮貌，就像一碗淨麵。」老闆毫不客氣。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsFFueEN2O
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUazbVzcmZ
「還以為服務業從業員都是笑臉迎人的！」我笑老闆過於主觀。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fNG13t1ql
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFuNq8nb6R
「你已然下班。」老闆眼神放軟，狀甚憐惜：「你累了，累得沒能假裝。」379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIzXKcXbtv
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRuTXIYIBc
「你想太多。」我假笑，再次將鈔票遞予老闆。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsE4bFKz44
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91AuIfOHaS
老闆點點頭，終於伸手接下鈔票，但沒有感謝我的惠顧。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgeB1qR019
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeW7E53dEaD
我走出麵店，猶豫要不要繼續光顧這麵店——被看穿心思的感覺令我很不安、很難受。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2k7Z0wAfn
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI36n7fSLkp
心念電轉，靈光一閃，驀地抬頭。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9wtH4xKAj
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEwYJm5eNk
算了吧。379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Mf0bzYeL8
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDnfT5oyZX
難得遇到一個敢於對客人板著臉的老闆。
