男人冷漠的身影從車裡下來，純白的襯衫和黑色的褲子此刻顯得格外冷硬。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6X3ndg9uPo
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXcVHRLCiO
「乖兒子！」婦人上前迎接，一臉高興，「我可終於盼到你回來了。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3lonRfvJm
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveotLQ2Ysa
他冷著一張臉，微微頷首示意。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcNzh77yNn
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHe0tSps6A
婦人朝後頭站在車旁另一個略胖的男人親切地說，「蔡先生也一起進來吧！這大除夕的，就不要自己一個吃飯了。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kJwo1Hqk3
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDyP4WmRBj
「不用不用！李夫人您太客氣了。」男人乾笑著擺手，「我待會兒就開車回老家，後天再回來接阿凡。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRDqN8B6in
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cQQE5hjrg
「這樣。」婦人一臉可惜，但沒挽留，「那好，預祝你新年快樂啊！路上小心！」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTdDpjHd4c
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDMOZPZVNw
「謝謝李夫人！你們也是！」男人趕忙告別，「阿凡我先走了，後天再見！」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe81uOe3vCk
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWngI3DE1w
然後閃身躲進車裡。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzM5e9ztYsN
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0TREBkyvs
冷淡的男人無甚表情，轉身走進屋裡，婦人也趕快跟上。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ722iFs1ccd
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZePnUKXtv
兩人經過客廳，往飯廳走時，婦人小心翼翼地問，「那個⋯⋯小林沒跟你一起回來嗎？」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnltb5mT2My
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqJeQ98lbl
「回自己家了。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNxiBlBE6p
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlP2r3FH7l
「啊⋯⋯這樣。」婦人放鬆了點神情，「待會兒你爸有件事跟你商量⋯⋯不是甚麼大事，就是⋯⋯反正你先聽聽，別太緊張，也別跟你爸慪氣。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkYnKPR3hX
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHl4w14rcOV
他沒有答話。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGEKJha4yI
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1L8bq0n8y
飯廳裡另一個中年男人已經就坐，神情嚴肅。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dONiXo4Yx
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0Dhq2yrNC
男人淡漠地頷首打招呼。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9nNUAgUUd
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhN2QDXOccZ
「嗯。」中年男人沉著臉應了一聲，「坐吧。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MmNOCvyfg
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeHz1T87zI
傭人把菜都上齊後退了出去，三人默然開動，餐桌上只剩零星碗筷碰撞的聲音。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgvk8g1E72
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42qqEzqWfa
吃了一半，中年男人放下了筷子，向著年輕男人說，「給你跟林家的外孫女安排了見面，記得把時間空下。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60ovV3ZCVn
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WPRpvCLkA
年輕男人看了自家母親一眼，想到她剛才的囑咐，壓下想說的話，隨意嗯了一聲。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ToX88OSbb
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUC8eXfCo8h
「打算甚麼時候回去西班牙？」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOohbk9eLC
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqfZzpA43L
年輕男人邊吃邊冷淡地說，「沒有計畫。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAibOjTP7ZU
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IFm64Yq8n
中年男人眉頭深鎖，「甚麼？」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZ0S0tfmiJ
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTz9e9AwBi
「我會繼續留在國內踢足球。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRS8wJXecn
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFw1x89IdK
「你是說這個賽季之後，你還要繼續留在新鳴？」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrtFWbQl4E
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKjNMjcXao
「對。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMi0dgPGfPu
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrxUXXmt1n
「所以，」中年男人的語氣都變了，「你要繼續踢乙級？」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvr7XL2jtqC
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGZjo5cQzr
「贏了冠軍，就會去A隊踢甲級。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4AIKzrlv0
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdnldG8kwl
「現在問題是這個嗎？」中年男人厲聲說道，「這裡的A隊跟西班牙的A隊能一樣嗎！你是不是燒壞了腦子！」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFKhrJZw5Z
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSMvVo2m3G
「老公別激動⋯⋯我們說好跟孩子心平氣和地說的⋯⋯」婦人焦心地在旁邊勸說。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsnti3D0T7
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubMSO8zbCD
中年男人不管妻子的勸說，大怒拍桌，「李與凡你給我清醒一點！我花這麼多心力栽培你踢足球，就是為了讓你在這種三流球隊踢這種不入流的比賽嗎？！」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsisPctAusz
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPujMrFuQXv
李與凡依舊冷漠，緩緩放下了筷子，抬頭看向自己的父親，「我很清楚自己在做甚麼。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡousQLYHii2
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRFAGr5ChA
李父怒然看著他，胸口起伏。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJTsGbhpOP
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSq0FOkysHi
李與凡目光深深，面容不變。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJdKrTDMXl
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAR0nFNVngB
「我會證明，我今天得到的一切，都不是靠誰給的。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfzB1SJiTv

254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEnzlMeRHd
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ANGC5Gnrf
另一邊廂，林家四合院老宅外。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrUmH56Eqa
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDlvFbmQVb
從南翠球場開車趕回來的林經陽，在大宅門口跟自己的父母會合。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQe1UTmtmn
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgVOxYVLEc
他母親趕忙抓著他的手臂，「怎麼樣？有沒有請周總一起來過年？」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iGhimDclF
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3FbyikT7u
林經陽無奈，怎麼自家母親第一件事是關心周諾寧，「沒有。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQb99aXqsm
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbI9QCU2zPU
「這樣⋯⋯」林母擔憂地說，「你表妹出了那樣的醜事，聽說本家是不想我們回來的⋯⋯本來想說如果能把周總請來⋯⋯唉，也不知道他們是怎麼個態度⋯⋯」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrASSYU5wcn
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNQ4pHXBO2
「沒事。」林經陽安撫，「反正總歸得有人代表回來露個臉，我們低調一點就好，老人家們應該不會說甚麼的。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AbfK1yZGT
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtZHt1Hh0z
林父點點頭，「今年說是統一去正院問安，待會兒你自己進去打個招呼吧，我跟你媽在偏院待著。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdI601fspq
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS24vP82UXw
「嗯，我知道了。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwhkhezx1P
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QmJVfpzkS
穿過四合院的廣亮大門，迎接的傭人一個帶著林氏夫婦前去偏院，另一個則帶著林經陽到了正院，停在中堂的門邊請他進去。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmRuvEDj9g
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZo5MUiXaL
林經陽頓下腳步，看了裡面熟悉又遙遠的建築一圈，才緩慢地跨過門檻，進入屬於主人之家的中堂。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwSYemMcGA
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9D58l0CJrT
他走到中央的八仙桌，依次給坐在兩旁的長輩一一問好，幾位老人家都很有默契地沒有多提他表妹的事。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvjmTVqLe2
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRNzXI3wjk
例行公事辦妥後，他便打算回去偏院找他父母，回頭就看到剛跨進門檻的熟悉身影。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwmelVNZVB
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Am6faujke
林經陽上前朝男人笑著打招呼，「好久不見。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡil0Sve3bhH
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsP9hWF4p8D
「嗯。」男人慵懶地插著口袋，「你父母呢？」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vABSOBXZZ
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIr4KrHLq93
「在偏院，我也正打算過去找他們。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknu7zjeHfq
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMQ9ERkZOj
「請他們也過來吧，今年整個家族都在正院吃飯。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGeNopZoAJ
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTiF4OpZEh
林經陽略為驚訝，「我以為⋯⋯只是讓我們進來打個招呼。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavziWeTZ3Y
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJTSVXc2ez
男人扯著唇，「那些不合時宜的規條，也該是時候廢掉了。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcxlzkGzyL
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVNMr9fiLP
林家的正統血緣是百年貴冑，歷史僅次於皇族之後的上官家，所以很多傳統守舊的規條一直流傳至今，例如林經陽這些旁支出身的族人，以前是絕對沒法踏進中堂半步的。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsL3pkxwqj5
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ahMqvIiir
不過去年林家新任掌陀人上場後，好些舊規矩就被逐一廢除。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbrufvro0k
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6E67WbybA
林經陽笑了笑，看向不遠處正在和小孩子打鬧的年輕女孩，「看來你家裡那位對你影響蠻大的。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAByqiSy1Kd
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Pw4Blg5hP
男人勾了勾唇，不置可否，唯獨落了女孩身影的眼神裡，多了一層冷硬中的柔和。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlscyJoD0lo
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KgAfxSnhC
林經陽看了看四周，「你妹妹呢？還在國外嗎？」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0daMx0M5s
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUvzYAyiB1
「嗯。大概是在西班牙太快活吧，說是作業趕不上不能回來，等到年末的時候再看看。」男人神情鬆弛，「反正她被關在這裡太久，也需要多點自由，就任由我爸媽嘮叨去了。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQl3x4rYPM
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNc9hAazr9M
林經陽失笑，很明白他說的意思，「看這樣子，再過幾年，你父母該給她安排婚事了。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafffeJcC7q
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeQ8s0tugr
「就是啊⋯⋯」男人若有所思，想到那條他還沒能改變的規條，「父母之命，媒妁之言⋯⋯看似天經地義，但誰又真的那麼幸運，能被安排遇上那個最適合的人選。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqGOTfDYSQ
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmPplwEsrA
林經陽笑著抬頭看天，頭一次有些慶幸自己是出身自旁支，「看來出身正統，也未必永遠都是好事。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVyrm3XWg7
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7vQd4wXEV
他家的公司是服裝界的龍頭企業，以前同學總把他當成小太子爺，百般討好奉承，令他總有種優越感，自認出身不錯，足以讓人稱羨。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcyqaBpMHZ
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IOzZvpXJ8
可是當他母親總抓著他切切教誨，叮囑他一定要努力學習，拼命發奮圖強，絕不能讓林家那群人瞧不起他時，他慢慢搞不懂他爸媽到底還有甚麼不滿足。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RnDeax4lE
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SE5Tdatgy
當他漸漸長大，學會觀言察色，才赫然發現在他名字裡的「林」，跟別家小孩的那個「林」，原來還可以如此差天共地。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WR1N7yYOD
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSyKeotrCc
百年家族林氏，身為四大貴族之一，有座寬大的四合院大宅，代表著林氏悠久且堅毅不屈的歷史，是整個家族的根基和象徵。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWFnWPWZhx
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGBDwjwSaY
能在裡面生活、奔跑、長大，是一種身分的肯定，而繼承它的人就有如擁有天下。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftxtDcxVp7
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJq28LffgvZ
可裡面天地再大，卻永遠都不會有屬於他和他家人的位置，他們只是這遼闊庭院裡，可有可無的青草綠葉。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesks63RrY2
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlQ83RJy0f
他們必須要存在，卻又要像不存在那樣謹言慎行。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2DOwTvWmn
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SD0NyAi2G
從那時林經陽才明白，原來他們沒有的東西，還有這麼多。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4T1dkfNQgd
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Q5ZV5LX57
真正令人稱羨，擁有一切光環的，是站在祭壇最前一列，牽著太老爺的手，在眾人的目光之中上前拜祭的一人。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVtKgQHZFr
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80QIo0lD9D
而那人，就是面前這個與他年紀相仿，卻已經是林氏現任當家的天之驕子，林景軒。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmPj6NT6bu
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpUd5AVwqH
「是嗎？」林景軒挑眉回視過去，「那你擁有身為旁支的自由，讓你選擇到了你想要的人了嗎？」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Wlhrr9wSj
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLjC0vAjca
林經陽遙望遠方，神情意味深長，「選⋯⋯當然能選了。」而後又笑著自嘲，「只是⋯⋯那個選擇並沒有選擇我而已。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3lOt7KTsV
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFvQrPaQtE
林景軒勾唇，「看來周家大小姐眼高於天的傳聞，倒也不假。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGFxzsoeoc
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAIXNL6LiZ
「眼高於天嗎⋯⋯」林經陽輕笑了聲，曾經也以為是自己配不上她，「或許只是她心裡面，本身就沒有所謂的標準。」254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzX1hMmKqB
254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdSpwhniMw
林經陽很確定，即使過去一年荊棘滿途，歷經許多不必要的跌宕起伏，此刻的周諾寧，正在度過她人生中最快樂的春節。254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OlLLl6pLs
