夜深，我來到準備打烊的麵店。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZXLldWIYh
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVIocpVZZ7
「一碗淨麵。」375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeYxKA6v4p
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlUaqeY5ct
老闆瞥了我一眼，不發一言，雙手來回忙著。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNKyMJ4eEV
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGzoNztElu
他的臉色不大好看，正如我剛才點菜時的語氣也不禮貌。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcwblqyocM
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7kvuMkvEc
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。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kxAcs7cRN
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYrf42UrCV
麵來了。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2XwWykLws
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnUqdeQ8rX
名副其實的淨麵。沒有湯汁，沒有調味料，沒有配料。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubY2In2usN
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyYLw8Zxqg
「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。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMdXlQVYhd
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIoImxnsq4
「我不需要它好吃。」我低頭吃麵，心裡希望老闆閉嘴。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbtWMrTttY
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyKLz3DMqg
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。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGm8GHhqUH
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7V27wMzNM
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。」375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfmSg1xoIN
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VVG8vhQZF
「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。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqD9HR1Ek8
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusMLQxIFE4
「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。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoXrpAnSWZ
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfcE4hJOq9
「何以見得？」我的手不自覺退回來。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OJabPRZND
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplZjTFlxel
「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。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8VrwFEp7q
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1W33qwTzY
「還以為服務業從業員都是笑臉迎人的！」我笑老闆過於主觀。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiESO2coqd
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtx6Lp67tYD
「你已然下班。」老闆眼神放軟，狀甚憐惜：「你累了，累得沒能假裝。」375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLxTJHtNcp
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKyyXbgpgM
「你想太多。」我假笑，再次將鈔票遞予老闆。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Hee5iFybj
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17JL0iwyQY
老闆點點頭，終於伸手接下鈔票，但沒有感謝我的惠顧。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTH1bp6u2CH
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhSaHWHQ7T
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。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAnw6Yft1f
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdCdlC5iwo
心念電轉，靈光一閃，驀地抬頭。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFes7bfyOl1
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0fRiyC5vm
算了吧。375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtz4TL9xRIr
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRz0E4SHnv
難得遇到一個敢於對客人板著臉的老闆。
