夜深，我來到準備打烊的麵店。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjjZNcFgOt
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡer3K0I501g
「一碗淨麵。」443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgd13BV6Zpz
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDT66d5zbv
老闆瞥了我一眼，不發一言，雙手來回忙著。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXV8pSWp8db
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1UZZu0wza
他的臉色不大好看，正如我剛才點菜時的語氣也不禮貌。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJ6gCEPQ4L
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpUVnUrz4K
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。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvthzCYAi7I
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfFRoYav0r
麵來了。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeB9l4Afc5
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgU9P4qAzM
名副其實的淨麵。沒有湯汁，沒有調味料，沒有配料。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYZneDP69F
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL87EVrC2yi
「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。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeF1czrxvf
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0F3nw2pOB7
「我不需要它好吃。」我低頭吃麵，心裡希望老闆閉嘴。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsyObSKfch
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nc8vJaWRH
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。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTQV2LTkYl
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRhlhGujwT
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。」443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncnXS6VySR
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRegfCjUBeg
「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。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4K2R9cAPl
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrDa8y2oNQ
「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。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXTXi41yYH
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhL6sIVPL8e
「何以見得？」我的手不自覺退回來。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjQKW33oGE
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUzpZFwQNy
「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。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKwEVqqs4H
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSql2mT1xWm
「還以為服務業從業員都是笑臉迎人的！」我笑老闆過於主觀。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgkJhkVOuP
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ100U6ns9Yi
「你已然下班。」老闆眼神放軟，狀甚憐惜：「你累了，累得沒能假裝。」443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiT7nyToiv
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyoB80WFF0
「你想太多。」我假笑，再次將鈔票遞予老闆。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhZ1TcgmO0
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNeFwXLBuW
老闆點點頭，終於伸手接下鈔票，但沒有感謝我的惠顧。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0KmcgSgCS
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMvE3a20ib
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。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR30vfoOhzA
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMv1sCai7HE
心念電轉，靈光一閃，驀地抬頭。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7XU3Mwskl
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7GK6xfXKI
算了吧。443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJklfkp5hA8
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLABqrRPSw
難得遇到一個敢於對客人板著臉的老闆。
