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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFT51xWaOc
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRW9TWignv
「乖兒子！」婦人上前迎接，一臉高興，「我可終於盼到你回來了。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqbYiaAuSa
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyFYuvn1yW
他冷著一張臉，微微頷首示意。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTEX2jsuzF
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37VKrKg5dH
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。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGsRIEU5Ts
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMmxkkmP8C
「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。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6axncgnbc
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPpBdZ3XRI
「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！」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ139Kdr31Y5
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwHDKeMdSM
「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！」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QpXgS3haQ
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHAQii3aLV
然後閃身躲進車裡。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ581qbrHq4s
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FMdHghGuG
冷淡的男人無甚表情，轉身走進屋裡，婦人也趕快跟上。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2AEk5mLEA
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYptj9Yf9Rp
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？」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5wAwYYyQu
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEsNught8o
「回自己家了。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQ9R0LYNxX
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZciUAqVsk
「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。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejeMcfOgde
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz75qgubrPM
他沒有答話。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55CuzZVrbI
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrPvO6VKjs
飯廳裡另一個中年男人已經就坐，神情嚴肅。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaDClFs09a
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRohWMN0wpQ
男人淡漠地頷首打招呼。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURRSOrdNxh
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uOaDCnSfJ
「嗯。」中年男人沉著臉應了一聲，「坐吧。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7AxGluNbr
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrWLRjNroV
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhU308HWdZd
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8Ery9r7QG
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。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡod1M3X47Xi
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVczm5sQtB
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0phxPfMbD
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7lIuC9ST0
「打算甚麼時候回去西班牙？」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15D0j4t4Qk
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfS50DoZwDF
年輕男人邊吃邊冷淡地說，「沒有計畫。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5SXe18EAI
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8m50Ii8YW
中年男人眉頭深鎖，「甚麼？」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZghH16iv22
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH64kJ5j0Ju
「我會繼續留在國內踢足球。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GIm0q8duv
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YSg4WnWDp
「你是說這個賽季之後，你還要繼續留在新鳴？」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15N2B00TtB
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTjGqe05dC
「對。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMrQQRRudp
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09AoCT4fwk
「所以，」中年男人的語氣都變了，「你要繼續踢乙級？」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZe8b0f0N2
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVS2SW7mhj
「贏了冠軍，就會去A隊踢甲級。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9A6rE1cor
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lL1uwsX1E
「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！」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrW1L56NGS3
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CKjpUjGF4
「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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8TSAgiNjF
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAFGG8s2CL
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？！」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1JLYO9ICY
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfRg4DoL4w
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。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZBlR23uqZ
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vEAu3FvlE
李父怒然看著他，胸口起伏。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkYnFfopQY
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAdiqip5Ya
李與凡目光深深，面容不變。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHi2poW3PUs
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYOO1NJre4
「我會證明，我今天得到的一切，都不是靠誰給的。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmpqjpu6Yc

308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwmyrW5rbq
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZS0mz83vJ
另一邊廂，林家四合院老宅外。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnYPI2JaxB
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwL6Ge6VYO
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0APG8cBA7g
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtjkwtybT4
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？」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpo1VMwLNJc
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDDkdvtQFp
林經陽無奈，怎麼自家母親第一件事是關心周諾寧，「沒有。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr95zQid1Vc
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwqh7Kzz1u
「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⋯⋯」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpCvZWfCQS
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuzJkWPbjg
「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。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnbSautYLa
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM739P7utox
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。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFReuyTuzw
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIj31YUI3K
「嗯，我知道了。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NBTYT0euk
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqyb0koOVd
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgb97LuIzkf
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90JDDExblp
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutjVxGEgON
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPRDF3yMRa
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBeyII26g7
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZwnENcPF3
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1YvB7WK5H
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnAd28Q1W5
林經陽上前朝男人笑著打招呼，「好久不見。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgXBWc5bpa
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDb4wwWCYuX
「嗯。」男人慵懶地插著口袋，「你父母呢？」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARRZLXLqrF
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaukeeUzrdN
「在偏院，我也正打算過去找他們。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHOuP0vHcM
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnUiingWix
「請他們也過來吧，今年整個家族都在正院吃飯。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEd5qxVWC5
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsyakzCQVi
林經陽略為驚訝，「我以為⋯⋯只是讓我們進來打個招呼。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7z66iTxKMn
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhLdipbnLt
男人扯著唇，「那些不合時宜的規條，也該是時候廢掉了。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNQLmmulph
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRouBnlGDlX
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5H8sAC7jiR
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1XAq5Xs2n
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfg5lALlIXy
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9NLFxzkBM
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。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJ3o0G4g7u
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyT6rTDokE
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpB8SLTRqIq
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgUyMsYwQt
林經陽看了看四周，「你妹妹呢？還在國外嗎？」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqrhw9nAc6
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Wg3k3rSOZ
「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。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDetpl0SC5
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjPor4S4EM
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。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrDB0c0wSX
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOKEq4VEHm
「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。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBltxaTZEm1
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhPIbnOTS0
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。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VBzrlsJX6
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2rAmKeosg
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcAfMqER9w
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6j0aA9G97e
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYbmtO7nwk
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIev9d1U5e1
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUuY0lLMWq
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuym3263OYD
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHc6pHX5an
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tTEkepPVQ
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUz2GneLaf
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsW2Jl03o4B
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNplF4Bw1JF
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkTLkDVkV8
他們必須要存在，卻又要像不存在那樣謹言慎行。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXvIZeC5xa
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFW5euFSk6
從那時林經陽才明白，原來他們沒有的東西，還有這麼多。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkYQ9nLQYV
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtjbpCcxkw
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rHV33iAyH
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhwwK14EfV
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucmXdcFyDZ
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFndLAPCQd
「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？」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1j0rImpXj
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYUcLIQEBj
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。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTK0Kp2Md5
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaE0IVS4wh
林景軒勾唇，「看來周家大小姐眼高於天的傳聞，倒也不假。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNcAJSyCEG
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfkY06FAdQ
「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。」308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKgAWE6U1M
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDo0Bleug4J
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。308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcwmMKll4R
