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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfQOpbaZsJ
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8HXst1W8U
「乖兒子！」婦人上前迎接，一臉高興，「我可終於盼到你回來了。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCrvFsmOiY
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwIrilXcQp
他冷著一張臉，微微頷首示意。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcTtOh3aId
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LuF6vxSy9
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。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtljYtlXiH
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiHCiHJ3ff
「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。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvwn2ubuVW
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡku8fpONGmI
「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！」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡel1y9zWV1g
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHX4acKNyJ
「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！」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2Dgrx3FFE
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcmEyd5BnH
然後閃身躲進車裡。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51rh3WFXrf
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjvOrgjXxj
冷淡的男人無甚表情，轉身走進屋裡，婦人也趕快跟上。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqK7ysKoNC
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVkiCmwLY7
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？」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1BV7Zt7PP
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sOwvXasP4
「回自己家了。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MvzKgJ7zI
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPUil5GOLi
「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。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBM5wC6rmb2
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmf4xIdLUiR
他沒有答話。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBy12MB4iUc
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRAi6M260J
飯廳裡另一個中年男人已經就坐，神情嚴肅。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEPGnkIWFS
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeWZ1fYITY
男人淡漠地頷首打招呼。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRPh7tS0bh
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNNWrf0do9
「嗯。」中年男人沉著臉應了一聲，「坐吧。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiZHDgKhgD
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyVawN3qWA
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jtV9yx42l
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZg53yyeLo0
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。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzxBSicl6g
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdV8vsLQbxO
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0McCDXRc2
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01JscSOCUj
「打算甚麼時候回去西班牙？」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpp9sChMj7
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhBT7JfXju
年輕男人邊吃邊冷淡地說，「沒有計畫。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFwS9R5svw
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUKoYbEFC6
中年男人眉頭深鎖，「甚麼？」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrXc7utgfc
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpe5DYn58U
「我會繼續留在國內踢足球。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MY0ZZk34r
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ADUh01bcH
「你是說這個賽季之後，你還要繼續留在新鳴？」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4jpEx0ctU
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDQ3fNczR1
「對。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FPEY6oXhy
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWiNMsAEZK
「所以，」中年男人的語氣都變了，「你要繼續踢乙級？」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGRoMov0CG
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDplk9WkEbs
「贏了冠軍，就會去A隊踢甲級。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHs1JnYUzLW
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFWxFrLByC
「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！」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7b9pLohcXv
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJckVM6i01x
「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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqmI5qbzJb
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHyawSwqzU
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？！」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkglR2ooqi
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYq8DzawU0D
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。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbuSF68wdV
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxafKG6bTo6
李父怒然看著他，胸口起伏。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFiy1vm1hG
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQFND01s3c
李與凡目光深深，面容不變。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5n8xpRVfS
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKVHX7FQJd
「我會證明，我今天得到的一切，都不是靠誰給的。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHUNEsdnSr
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIgVwKw4F5
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOyAAjM5Ac

307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ExdbSJ63J
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeML4oFZQC0
另一邊廂，林家四合院老宅外。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeDmOyiiIW
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjiquj7by5
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUmy5CI83v
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ23j1qvFpv
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？」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSpYyL7irz
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDpsDxdJ00
林經陽無奈，怎麼自家母親第一件事是關心周諾寧，「沒有。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7zGb7aic3
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTNDacYPha
「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⋯⋯」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaoDGSQRM9
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxkWHdoXsB
「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。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9pFhn9llr
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1RzReWweL
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。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYJ8TATcjv
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2qYc85fCL
「嗯，我知道了。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEE1XqC0JNr
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUE1OAq2ePi
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeErDFFCGBT
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszC29HPYvH
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0UvThy8EQ
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iLdoPT6G1
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRu7nTIN3b
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYSmI3BAyd
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcX2jLmmPKz
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHejpnXRdG
林經陽上前朝男人笑著打招呼，「好久不見。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡse2KV6NAyf
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfKnVW4u1o
「嗯。」男人慵懶地插著口袋，「你父母呢？」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0N57QWvCK
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjMdCIWm37
「在偏院，我也正打算過去找他們。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOaR5NWPPm
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgOmDGmUYp
「請他們也過來吧，今年整個家族都在正院吃飯。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4uE0i0VHI
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3CkMK0Qdk
林經陽略為驚訝，「我以為⋯⋯只是讓我們進來打個招呼。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1so34u8D7Q
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUnowKG1dt
男人扯著唇，「那些不合時宜的規條，也該是時候廢掉了。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjsioJiHgx
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4hHo5ksnx
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcARNJBOp9U
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQGbKBzoB0
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJsabFwsu5
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBXUGzzg5m
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。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTO0WPlkgHK
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BsCGpvd3T
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBi7Vrnj42T
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0Kn0r5lTq
林經陽看了看四周，「你妹妹呢？還在國外嗎？」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKtw8itFP5
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wpIoDuQLo
「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。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXKSPTD0lu
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYpGPK0CHi
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。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcEHYrcXML
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡST5Ty7sn8y
「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。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5sHDuRdG3
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CquH5Fpku
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。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFFWJ0oj4q
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf02Hhpgbih
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4h8g5Cs9J
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3DE4MESsW
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zbta2VqO6
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqRgHi1DIz
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AStp1E6VB
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseytZ1eKqN
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTxcN0pvkE
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2y8VfEwKbq
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAs1bPyppNu
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRM5r6GQXO8
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7R6mHkVU72
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4pRZAfcPx
他們必須要存在，卻又要像不存在那樣謹言慎行。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6C2oktSsU
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4a803LJI4J
從那時林經陽才明白，原來他們沒有的東西，還有這麼多。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWCos3ZgTI
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5c2zVGNCO4
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOl08rnRJEX
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7zdovZmQ6
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq361MZAtHt
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUGxuXHPl7
「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？」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsti5bjR2C1
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KRrPctI3b
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。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8jhir0zct
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfjFBS1RpK
林景軒勾唇，「看來周家大小姐眼高於天的傳聞，倒也不假。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyjIEVxvF7
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAR9l0uS7Cw
「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。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRvLgC9mKE
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNR9mgGMlxZ
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。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspNfz5utxi
