夜深，我來到準備打烊的麵店。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIYVkKAaNG
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDEJXH9QKh
「一碗淨麵。」450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFwz2MpSsV
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8Int80Q2T
老闆瞥了我一眼，不發一言，雙手來回忙著。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLMkY3ilIb
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xCP0HRhxk
他的臉色不大好看，正如我剛才點菜時的語氣也不禮貌。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVVccYALuJ
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUkLgHTxd4
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。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBrVyZRRhB
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRDCPvmGLN
麵來了。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7h8aHTCUCP
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1bdvTC2i6
名副其實的淨麵。沒有湯汁，沒有調味料，沒有配料。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpME1WlBBQ
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoFJDHDC9S
「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。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJntSIhZEBQ
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGlxCP1lxJ
「我不需要它好吃。」我低頭吃麵，心裡希望老闆閉嘴。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOys3MvrN0
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa59V8Id0cY
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。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oEJgmpTzb
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOo6FIfoQg1
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。」450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bmx0Dkywu
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIk6znb7Wp
「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。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheEVDuUeah
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlYoGupKRJ
「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。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBxhsmLe3t
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhXP0MDUoZ
「何以見得？」我的手不自覺退回來。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV39KpHBP5K
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkveKNuS67
「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。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwo319PmGUH
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17mZ23CXl1
「還以為服務業從業員都是笑臉迎人的！」我笑老闆過於主觀。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRPtpTYLwh
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtCkFr6pQy
「你已然下班。」老闆眼神放軟，狀甚憐惜：「你累了，累得沒能假裝。」450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOzJzXJPvN
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKzAv9Wk7Q
「你想太多。」我假笑，再次將鈔票遞予老闆。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BLhvZ6iwO
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0z9PJwIzN
老闆點點頭，終於伸手接下鈔票，但沒有感謝我的惠顧。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVy8RagLxZF
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAkYSP113v
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。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Qd1rpqr3e
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxypXTS8t6
心念電轉，靈光一閃，驀地抬頭。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXLbzlUrr9
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYF53b5IInj
算了吧。450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0YM7Dt2Fu
450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zJerfRu6n
難得遇到一個敢於對客人板著臉的老闆。
