周家老宅。242Please respect copyright.PENANALBQg9NQgnX
242Please respect copyright.PENANAl7ftWKC8OA
飯廳裡換上深紅桌布的大圓桌正在上菜,周天權坐在主位,周氏家族的其他成員則坐在他的右手邊,氣氛冷清,像是互不相識似的。242Please respect copyright.PENANALFhpUqhuYX
242Please respect copyright.PENANAC9tPlEke2G
看著對頭的客人一列,坐在邊上的方學冷笑了聲,不屑地說,「真不知道這是甚麼組合。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAIKIiyIQl2X
242Please respect copyright.PENANA1ik0Dr5YCk
周諾寧坐在他旁邊,自然清晰聽見,視線落在對頭的男人身上,目光轉深,眉頭輕蹙。242Please respect copyright.PENANAQitkMsi3Nk
242Please respect copyright.PENANAMF793fn5ai
傭人給坐在周天權旁邊的中年男人倒茶。242Please respect copyright.PENANA3loPE7i08V
242Please respect copyright.PENANAt13ZeKCNXU
「李館長你嚐嚐。」方玉賢溫和笑著,抬手示意,「這是從我們老家帶來的白毫銀針,家母嘗過,也說是春季收成中品質最上好的。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAvsw4eQPEL5
242Please respect copyright.PENANAmfBmcwLGKA
「多謝周夫人厚待。」中年男人道謝後,提起茶杯淺嚐一口,舌尖散發一股淡淡的清香,又笑道,「方家出產的茶葉,果然何時都是上品。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAloIrtjD6Xa
242Please respect copyright.PENANAHVprSu2A66
方玉賢悅道,「那就好,待會兒我讓人給你們打包點回去。」242Please respect copyright.PENANA18XeA0kldT
242Please respect copyright.PENANAZKknDsI4vQ
「那就多謝周夫人了。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAxopNmOFRHE
242Please respect copyright.PENANArxcyXEMjRe
這時菜都上好了,周天權抬手,「各位請用吧。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAqz966heF9M
242Please respect copyright.PENANAbNGqI46jMo
眾人這才開始動筷。242Please respect copyright.PENANAQbHyUevR4g
242Please respect copyright.PENANAeXlATPqybD
周諾寧看了對頭的幾人一眼,默不作聲,夾了點菜到碗裡,隨意吃了兩口。242Please respect copyright.PENANAnjbbyIbsH9
242Please respect copyright.PENANAgUjGFKfOiH
席間除了方玉賢盛情招待,只有那被稱為李館長的男人和周氏父子有交流幾句,其餘的人都沉默進食,對餐桌上的對話不發一言。242Please respect copyright.PENANAZYY0OmzP8V
242Please respect copyright.PENANAEhbBAU8fRU
又或者,是根本不想發言。242Please respect copyright.PENANA5ed56YKzLm
242Please respect copyright.PENANAviC6UdVMZ3
飯後,眾人移動到了偏廳,傭人準備了酒水和小點,父母坐在一起閒聊,而子女一輩則坐在不遠處沙發上,隔著距離相對無言。242Please respect copyright.PENANAkNIh6Y1xMD
242Please respect copyright.PENANAdgIoP7SYpZ
幾張冰冷的臉湊在一起,氣溫下降了幾度,連傭人也不敢輕易靠近倒酒。242Please respect copyright.PENANANFCKIJkFTg
242Please respect copyright.PENANAXWElAiDO2r
最後還是周子亦從容笑著,率先打破沉默,「阿凡,希望你還滿意今天這頓飯,我母親甚是擔心會招待不周。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAUo9wudUgJf
242Please respect copyright.PENANAbI1rfAUnuo
獨自坐在最旁邊的李與凡默然,隨意點了下頭,神情莫辨。242Please respect copyright.PENANAodc0YcQTry
242Please respect copyright.PENANADMi1pQbP7E
大年初一,周子亦邀請的不是別人,正是李與凡和他的父母。242Please respect copyright.PENANA4Yf1vuIseo
242Please respect copyright.PENANA86kaj8RiX2
周諾寧交疊著腿,靠後,手肘擱在扶手,低笑了聲。242Please respect copyright.PENANA87s42Vd49k
242Please respect copyright.PENANA2AtfBgThyY
中午周諾寧開車跟方學來到老宅,進入客廳的時候,李與凡和他的父母已經在座上,方玉賢還熱情地拉著她和方學給李父李母認識,彷彿她早已知道有客人來訪。242Please respect copyright.PENANA1ADqGWtOag
242Please respect copyright.PENANAD6vizjipZF
全然沒想過要解釋這是怎麼一回事。242Please respect copyright.PENANACvlmzcuRF3
242Please respect copyright.PENANAkZtdazt2Tx
周子亦自然聽到那聲笑,神情不變看著她。242Please respect copyright.PENANALVhcIK8L21
242Please respect copyright.PENANAN6UcMEiVf2
「哥哥多慮了,怎麼會招待不周。」她沒有感情一笑,「丁悅不在就行了。」242Please respect copyright.PENANA5c9CJJGEfj
242Please respect copyright.PENANAIO0dDhhj1d
周子亦維持著微笑,眼神看不出被冒犯之意,「小悅她當然也很想來,只不過她昨晚跟家人度歲,我捨不得她奔波而已。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAJhwK5QoDHZ
242Please respect copyright.PENANAt922W2CKvo
「是麼。」周諾寧拿起面前的香檳,湊到唇邊,又想起某人的叮嚀,維持原樣放下,「以為走了一個外人耳根清淨,結果還一次來了三個。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAsVQd8ectVD
242Please respect copyright.PENANAwnSMQXg0GH
李與凡的臉色紋風不動。242Please respect copyright.PENANA7hxLTWgtMv
242Please respect copyright.PENANAvbQs2kG5ay
倒是周子亦眼底閃過暗湧。242Please respect copyright.PENANA1T9cpaCw6P
242Please respect copyright.PENANAaaJdyQgg5d
「阿凡對新鳴來說是很重要的人,自然對同舟來說也是一樣,我當然要找機會好好招待。」周子亦撐著笑,偏頭看向李與凡,「而且我聽說,李館長和李夫人也一直很希望跟爸媽見一面。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAibb0DXQnDH
242Please respect copyright.PENANAmV4D6nik9X
李與凡的父母曾經都是外交官,李父更官至大使,所以即使已經退休好幾年,但還是習慣別人稱他做李館長。242Please respect copyright.PENANALHLHJzNVOs
242Please respect copyright.PENANA33Dn5XVVGJ
李與凡不置可否,似是置身事外。242Please respect copyright.PENANAiPR7O91KZD
242Please respect copyright.PENANANX6ALJVvhH
周子亦淡淡收回視線,來回掃了他們一眼,又回頭看向言談甚歡的兩對夫婦,嘴角翹起,「說不定將來⋯⋯我們會成為真正的一家人。」242Please respect copyright.PENANALMEqLgGsbW
242Please respect copyright.PENANAmWlU3DCWum
周諾寧和李與凡同時眉頭一皺。242Please respect copyright.PENANANoHrADi60Z
242Please respect copyright.PENANA3slhTQAt6h
這個暗示,他們自然都聽得懂。242Please respect copyright.PENANAX4OvMjDd8E
242Please respect copyright.PENANAHrMY4G2k2K
周子亦笑看周諾寧,眼神帶了絲挑釁,「親上加親,這不正好麼。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAijkgSqZ16L
242Please respect copyright.PENANAjBFybvvCk3
周諾寧臉色一沉。242Please respect copyright.PENANAEgsI9eLhpe
242Please respect copyright.PENANAl7hL481wtX
兩家多了這層關係,可以留住李與凡在新鳴之餘,還可以牽制她和南翠的關係,確實是個不錯的辦法。242Please respect copyright.PENANArWnSFq9xUa
242Please respect copyright.PENANAir4ricKe0q
李與凡寡淡的臉多了份凝重,但他沒作聲。242Please respect copyright.PENANAXyeX28gKbG
242Please respect copyright.PENANA0P27t622nN
倒是方學挺高興的,挑眉,沒心沒肺的說,「恭喜啊,終於不用看著你繼續禍害人間。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAMtbWS5Hdsj
242Please respect copyright.PENANAb4e5qtKiiA
周諾寧冷眼睨著他。242Please respect copyright.PENANAdAdVDl6Bhy
242Please respect copyright.PENANARIPeC4Yafq
及後,方玉賢把周諾寧和李與凡喊了過去,說兩家人這樣聚在一起也是姻緣,讓他們以後多多交流。242Please respect copyright.PENANAbyiU4e4sqN
242Please respect copyright.PENANAhTdvnHk20T
目的是甚麼,再也明顯不過。242Please respect copyright.PENANADeiWghlWrb
242Please respect copyright.PENANADMvXLQGusw
「你們倆年紀差不多,又都喜歡足球,應該很多話題的。」方玉賢一臉歡喜,來回看著周諾寧和李與凡同樣冷峻的氣息,感覺甚是合襯。242Please respect copyright.PENANAoSN170q1OO
242Please respect copyright.PENANASlzjViKvYA
李父笑道,「只聽聞諾寧你是個投資天才,沒想到你對足球也這麼有興趣。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAOzKdH3xzJS
242Please respect copyright.PENANAsM7QDzPEDV
「就是啊,以前我們還老擔心兒子太喜歡足球,會找不到跟他一樣興趣的女孩子,沒想到這裡就有一個了。」李母也是滿心歡喜,「改天你們可以切磋一下啊。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAHHTHc3px1c
242Please respect copyright.PENANAdqzqGZJyd4
周諾寧擰眉看著方玉賢。242Please respect copyright.PENANArAOrBt7itt
242Please respect copyright.PENANAZxU9VAU90x
她雖然投資球會,卻從沒在外界面前顯露過自己對足球的看法。242Please respect copyright.PENANACaaL79IFtX
242Please respect copyright.PENANAGINfWNNmtk
所以知道她會踢足球的人少之又少。242Please respect copyright.PENANAMDETblaJZe
242Please respect copyright.PENANAos7iRxXxEy
方玉賢接收到她眼裡的疑惑,笑笑道,「啊,剛才聊到與凡小時候就開始踢足球了,我就想起你小時候也是喜歡追著足球跑的。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAwXHNpVJAMO
242Please respect copyright.PENANABH7iuRBHvS
「真沒想到這倆孩子相似的地方這麼多啊!」李母一笑。242Please respect copyright.PENANAN9XQh7PZHj
242Please respect copyright.PENANAjwwJ7q1Esw
「就是,這是種緣分啊。」方玉賢也報以一笑。242Please respect copyright.PENANAteiptqE6S7
242Please respect copyright.PENANAzFDJoTZKMr
周諾寧冷冷地扯了下唇,捏緊了拳頭。242Please respect copyright.PENANAmTYbdRme1c
242Please respect copyright.PENANA8sXeguMpKs
小時候。242Please respect copyright.PENANACg23EgfoOj
242Please respect copyright.PENANADsWgwKgxkf
虧她還有面子說出口。242Please respect copyright.PENANADH61HTQPYA
242Please respect copyright.PENANATVhD7vHbIC
周諾寧繃著神色別過臉,正好對上李與凡的黑眸,裡面帶著同樣的不悅,無從發洩。242Please respect copyright.PENANAxal2WEfgRD
242Please respect copyright.PENANAo5XBphhibs
他們交換了下眼神,難得有默契地明白了對方的意思。242Please respect copyright.PENANAICQ7mCYGrR
242Please respect copyright.PENANAdYVREt6iMd
周諾寧臉色一斂,瞬間嘴角牽起很淺的弧度,眼角輕彎,明顯是皮笑肉不笑的,「那我們就先失陪,去外面逛一圈了。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAzQclPCoXEv
242Please respect copyright.PENANAKmAa3IcbFz
看女兒主動提出跟李與凡單獨相處,方玉賢愉悅道,「哎好啊,你們快去吧,慢慢聊,多熟悉熟悉。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAHdDCBmVwHX
242Please respect copyright.PENANAdwE0CBSzK3
李父和李母笑著點頭讚同,只有周天權淡然看著,不置一詞。242Please respect copyright.PENANAcmYC5mRN5u
242Please respect copyright.PENANAUTnsb6msAU
於是周諾寧和李與凡裝作對看了一眼,表情很淡,並肩而走,順理成章脫離了這個讓人窒息的場合。242Please respect copyright.PENANAZa8iPRkSm2
242Please respect copyright.PENANACjyIWrzh4U
出了後門,他們倆的臉色一同塌下來,變回那副冰冷又生人勿近的模樣,馬上分開來了。242Please respect copyright.PENANAFxSfc0KvSD
242Please respect copyright.PENANA454t8DFjDF
李與凡掏出手機走到一邊,周諾寧則直直往花園那邊走。242Please respect copyright.PENANA8kbu7O4wJ8
242Please respect copyright.PENANADJBYCzxxdh
不久,方學從裡面跟了出來,插著口袋,一臉不耐煩走到她身邊。242Please respect copyright.PENANAYkcX4HRkLI
242Please respect copyright.PENANAAgY3fNhqTi
「該走了吧?」242Please respect copyright.PENANA2SbK5VjXin
242Please respect copyright.PENANAVggQ4aOC41
方學本來就不情願回來,周諾寧還把他丟下跟周子亦單獨相處,實在是受夠了。242Please respect copyright.PENANAqUF8TrB6yY
242Please respect copyright.PENANA7kPIPAY5nY
周諾寧回身,瞥見李與凡剛通完電話臉色似乎不太好,應道,「嗯,走吧。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAeZIxtRhuTD
242Please respect copyright.PENANA6nyUUgQq6B
他們往回走,在李與凡面前停下。242Please respect copyright.PENANA336j55h2YK
242Please respect copyright.PENANA8fpnZEFy4m
「我們要走了,你也一起。」周諾寧淡淡道。242Please respect copyright.PENANAZkXPcyaFMC
242Please respect copyright.PENANAQglrZcinzw
李與凡微微頷首。242Please respect copyright.PENANAmzdj8m2Jj1
242Please respect copyright.PENANAyT7M5clUqg
三人走出周家老宅,司機把周諾寧的車開到門口,方學一個閃身就先上了車,連道別也省了。242Please respect copyright.PENANALvwqhH2ogQ
242Please respect copyright.PENANA6K9s9tcNZV
周諾寧等著司機從駕駛座下來,正要坐進去時瞧見李與凡一動不動,也沒有司機將他的車開過來的跡象。242Please respect copyright.PENANAXvSyi5TTMv
242Please respect copyright.PENANA7cq1ypjXwk
她垂眸想了想,抬起目光,命令道。242Please respect copyright.PENANAlk1rhKzW8j
242Please respect copyright.PENANA5Xb6cfR4EB
「上車。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAQsqUqCNpR8
242Please respect copyright.PENANAfJRbPs41YG
估計李與凡是跟父母坐一輛車來的,這會兒他們還沒走,他自然也沒有車可以開走,但又不想重新進去那裡。242Please respect copyright.PENANA3wsjRpCnt6
242Please respect copyright.PENANAMBKHcLvXtr
李與凡沉默半响,疏離道,「不用了,助理在路上。」242Please respect copyright.PENANAMRLEhnmbxo
242Please respect copyright.PENANAK16AnLzoi8
周諾寧偏頭,輕蔑笑道,「看你剛打電話,估計最快也得一個小時,你不是想讓我父母知道你在這裡等了一小時吧?」242Please respect copyright.PENANARWj4dguUwF
242Please respect copyright.PENANAxbrT8ZhujG
要是知道他們一起離開並不是有後續,她還把客人丟在門外吹冷風呆等,方玉賢肯定會對她勸誡幾百遍,再逼她請李與凡吃飯賠罪,諸如此類。242Please respect copyright.PENANATbo8aSUqQh
242Please respect copyright.PENANAh3m4rB45bL
想想也覺得煩。242Please respect copyright.PENANAlABpt9OKcY
242Please respect copyright.PENANAzTh3bYlFZ8
不是看在這點,她也懶得開口讓他坐她的車。242Please respect copyright.PENANAvImZvpPbuO
242Please respect copyright.PENANACz2vucjpsP
她可沒閒情逸致陪他在這裡耗時間。242Please respect copyright.PENANA03xKj3UV4N
242Please respect copyright.PENANAKH7rLkrGx4
李與凡臉部的線條繃緊,冰冷的臉似是散發寒氣,對上周諾寧耐性就要耗盡的眼神,空中開展了一場神經戰,無聲的硝煙四起。242Please respect copyright.PENANAMaoYO5hUkL
242Please respect copyright.PENANA2KvKIjVsqG
最終他先別開視線,不發一語走到後座開門上車。242Please respect copyright.PENANAIjQEa8KVWT
242Please respect copyright.PENANAkhRqFWsx3a
周諾寧眉眼舒展,也坐進了車裡。242Please respect copyright.PENANAF1UhJ9OzZ2
242Please respect copyright.PENANAzhHCkK3x7X
