夜深，我來到準備打烊的麵店。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bJcBhgIZg
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0x91OzLU2
「一碗淨麵。」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpqCHrdEPI
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKd04QaK3a4
老闆瞥了我一眼，不發一言，雙手來回忙著。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8h3zljzHU
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXyj6biHT8
他的臉色不大好看，正如我剛才點菜時的語氣也不禮貌。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVJXjzaqor
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfmIvou6Ct
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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWARmsGA8m
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TSnHfglln
麵來了。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2n8sdhm9z
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6wUiFeRZr
名副其實的淨麵。沒有湯汁，沒有調味料，沒有配料。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjGktoYczK
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSVwxXWNNa
「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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGciqh36Yv
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zFYLd0oj7
「我不需要它好吃。」我低頭吃麵，心裡希望老闆閉嘴。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnUELGQIqP
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bgNtXAfVA
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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uGJGpwg5t
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyNrPsfMbJ
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。」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyKX1a0nDB
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAajE1ajrWi
「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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRAUtD44kB
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKd1h6Zbcon
「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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlx1HmhdqiS
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqTV5QQbJg
「何以見得？」我的手不自覺退回來。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TWSOi2Y4s
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZh5rwCS8d
「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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNSvBot6QS
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnYQyZ4jBV
「還以為服務業從業員都是笑臉迎人的！」我笑老闆過於主觀。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5qOeInN5j
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQl9xzlZmKE
「你已然下班。」老闆眼神放軟，狀甚憐惜：「你累了，累得沒能假裝。」451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauf4eh8KGx
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldd4EfmNKp
「你想太多。」我假笑，再次將鈔票遞予老闆。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIJRvoQFIN
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77uPI5ubdi
老闆點點頭，終於伸手接下鈔票，但沒有感謝我的惠顧。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb358Fet6jD
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQIE2mrpWE
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。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJEKfpc0xW
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOD983fU68d
心念電轉，靈光一閃，驀地抬頭。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUFmaD4c0e
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsK1KBj07l3
算了吧。451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlRVhD3nCp
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zo9fwPGmx
難得遇到一個敢於對客人板著臉的老闆。
