雨水未乾的庭院飄著淡淡潮氣，梧桐落葉靜靜覆了一地。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVsUQzX0ky
陳志遠一身長呢風衣站立在門前，未經通報便自行推門而入。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vxKuadubo
葉宅的老僕見是他，也不敢多話，退得遠遠的。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkmM20mKNd
書房門半掩著，裡頭傳來淡淡墨香與報紙翻頁聲。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qFK3v8QzD
葉庭光坐在長沙發上，穿著家常西裝，手中攤著一本剛翻開的英文報紙。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI53vt9FqrL
見他進來，只微一抬眼，語氣淡淡：「你倒還記得這地方。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBMnTVedjF
志遠沒應，關門，坐下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKK6q7sNaCU
沉默了一會兒，他才開口——32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlKYG7UO9N
「明珠的事，是你安排的？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGMpr9hx43
這句話問得很平。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KJdftZMkz
不像質問，像確認。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZlhm2vIUj
「你不是一向消息靈通？」葉庭光把報紙折起，慢條斯理放到一旁，像是刻意不去看他。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1Yj7gTDOt
「你該問她，是不是早就不想要我這個父親。她自己說過的，不想跟姓葉的人有關。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCP6UzXMjB
「那是氣話，」志遠壓著聲音，「你當真了？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxU19KWmRY
葉庭光輕笑，斜眼瞥他一眼：「你什麼時候開始這麼在乎她說什麼了？再說了，你不是跟那個蘇曼麗在一起了嗎？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63NiCCJjBh
「那是兩碼子事。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6M8guq20O5
「我捧紅你的女人，有什麼不好的？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhstpoDDJm
志遠面色一沉，語氣低冷：「明珠是你女兒。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoEbWTBDPl
「也是盛樂門的人。」葉庭光語氣驟冷，「不是誰都能在主廳站穩腳跟的。蘇曼麗起碼懂得聽話，知道什麼該說、什麼不該做……你也不是第一天在這圈子走動，有些規矩，應該比誰都清楚。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EXI5cf9D5
志遠指節微微一緊，但沒有反駁。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4bv5EVQu5
葉庭光看了他一眼，語氣淡下來些：32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIb7DEgTjzm
「你現在替人說話的樣子，倒和以前不太一樣了。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76ZmE1kdah
志遠沒有接。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMcOtQXGZA
只是沉默了一瞬。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybp3IGt1gr
「那你知道丁永昌前些日子去找了明珠嗎？」他低聲道，「他去副廳，看了明珠的戲——演出結束後，說了些話，很難聽。甚至……還差點動手。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfjriG4J0g
葉庭光眉心微動，卻未接話。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYBpCXmLLm
「他拿曼麗作比較，當眾羞辱明珠。還說——明珠只知道靠人家撐腰。你應該知道這對她意味著什麼。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpPBMovPyg
葉庭光合上書本，沉聲道：「我也聽說了。他喝了酒。至於那些話……這些年我這個姓葉的幫了她多少，你是知道的。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHUrmTKVus
「這是重點嗎，」志遠打斷他，「是你給了丁永昌這個機會羞辱明珠。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hGrjUqIWp
這句話落下後，書房靜了一瞬。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilR7gNLWwE
葉庭光沒有立刻回應。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ENSPqNcxp
只慢慢靠回沙發，目光落在他身上：32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gpGGY4fLT
「你現在倒是比以前更在意這些細節了。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCywJH1yTtq
語氣不重，卻帶著某種試探。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8AgKF3ia1
志遠沒有接。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEd549V0L0
葉庭光才淡淡道：32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsScyyB4Vi
「我只是讓她知道，站得高，不是因為她想站。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡud3t5umGlu
「她若只是靠一時的氣性走到那一步，那掉下來也不冤。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1xUN8CxEE
「有些教訓，不受一次，是不會記得的。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKU2eBE1BVH
志遠聲音低了一點：32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgfcb3sDaH
「她不是靠氣性。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnzyE8fJn8
「她只是太認真。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHsxUWTC91
葉庭光看著他，沒有立刻回話。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbBHzEfj0c
「你倒是替她說得很穩。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35wuV0rRWj
這一句，比之前任何一句都輕。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdv4ibHoNZh
卻更像試探底線。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSjE0NEADX
書房再度安靜。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAEP8ti6vl
鐘聲輕響了一下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs39t66geWR
志遠手指微收，骨節發白。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcujXULb62
「我會讓她回到該在的位置。」他低聲說，「不管你怎麼安排。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0lsIcWS0U
葉庭光沒有否認，反而微微一笑：「行了，這種事說破就沒意思了。你也不是沒玩過這一套。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jesuxSSpT
葉庭光端起茶，輕輕啜了一口。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7SboOl0Zp
「你現在的話，比以前有分量多了。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCoKEg7gCs
他停了一瞬。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroj53X5Mxd
「只是別忘了，這種分量——不是只有你一個人有。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdTS7ElYaP
這句話沒有說破任何事。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouz0yBIBrb
但兩人都沒有再追問。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KMMu1gYfh
志遠沒回話，只是望著他。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lP33261N6
眼神裡沒有否認。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudTHCaYsJi
也沒有承認。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEahu3wcrB
他很清楚，葉庭光手裡握著什麼。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaSu9207Xn
很久以前他就知道。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HCvgiMJVE
而葉庭光也同樣清楚——32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsTkllCblA
這個坐在他對面的人，從來也不是乾淨站在外頭的那一種。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFvlCvQyj4
—————32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoY0n9lgWSV
盛樂門的屋頂很高。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBEu6A3h3u
高到站上來時，會有一瞬間的錯覺——32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08iFGaQCm1
像是整座城都離得很遠。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAKkk4a7ar
風從四面過來，沒有遮擋。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusL0G1WMGm
樓下的燈火被拉得細碎，一盞一盞鋪開，像是誰不小心打翻的金粉。街道上人影流動，車聲時近時遠，全都被風拆開，傳不上來。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Sds1jm12D
明珠站在欄邊。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFNcdSVW0E
裙角被風吹起，又落下，一次比一次慢。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1O03noAP6
她低頭點菸。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlnfeGSXSa
火柴擦亮時，火光在風裡顫了一下，幾乎滅掉。她側過身，用手擋了一瞬，那點光才穩住。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGvhhCupiu
煙燃起來。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPGTN1lK46
第一口，她吸得很深。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKJzFK9Msa
喉間一緊，像是什麼卡住了。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdw2wuakeNO
她沒有咳。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXO9yVm4jvS
只是慢慢吐出來。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtq4Uu8ezJR
煙霧在空中展開，還沒成形，就被風扯散。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaf4r6GksnZ
像什麼都留不住。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPGnTANrHp
她看著那一點火光。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB283cIGAKR
很久。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPSj6z6t2X
——「妳真的是不怕死。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXfgdlzpck
那句話忽然浮上來。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6AaNFybrY
不是回想。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0f4aShXW2W
更像是還停在耳邊。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGfCUiSC9b
她的手指微微一頓。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeIdfMvT8M
菸灰晃了一下，掉了下去。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchhFObKWp2
沒有聲音。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfBlaTzHXg
她低頭看了一眼，又移開視線。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCDzDfCsze
遠處有樂聲。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8TI2FsBok
很模糊。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnoXCFPgUy
節拍慢慢拖著，像一段快要收尾的戲。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihhZ8DBtm7
她閉了一下眼。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhiVkygKvP
畫面卻沒有消失。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXHI5hyaFy
反而更清楚。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcV5KfpT1y2
酒會的燈太亮了。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uoJeoEAEL
亮到人站在下面，連影子都沒有地方可以躲。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiHikBtFs4
笑聲一層一層疊上來，酒杯碰撞，裙擺摩擦，聲音貼著耳朵走。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFqgj6aNv7
有人靠近。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRQS2CDegS
太近了。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcQfBI7Vm0
氣息帶著酒味。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi58zd1QkD2
——「現在沒人撐，妳算什麼？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIoiVUTY3k
——「別給蘇曼麗丟臉。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsNM5HAZmp
她的指尖猛地收緊。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78iF5L766C
煙被壓得變形。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGuJTiNQut
火星亮了一下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VVS3ImAwe
像要燙到。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5w4n0t6BC
她卻沒有鬆手。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9V1JhoV6w
風一過，髮絲貼在臉側。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41atOVMo0A
她抬手撥開，動作有點慢。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmwo08QrJQ
像是晚了半拍。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIb2we4PvF4
她重新看向遠處。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcNGd9eCvR
舞台那側的窗還亮著。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rytLu14oE
光從縫裡漏出來，斜斜地落在牆面上。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhQIfObuwB
那樣的光，她太熟了。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgNjW1tyoB
站進去的時候，人會被照得很清楚。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYGEyqCyGR
清楚到連呼吸都要控制。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRqpWZQzOI
她看過另一個人站在那裡。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7tMct1ZVm
很穩。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6yWfvWIrZ
沒有多餘的動作。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfJgOg9wGV
沒有錯。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzrGRiNgnB
一次都沒有。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5f3FPKFTE
那樣的乾淨，讓人連挑錯的地方都找不到。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt49ycPtQkE
明珠的唇角動了一下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1I3KiQGW6
像是笑。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFqTWQdyev
又不像。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7yrgxbMHt
「真好。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoeZBF5hrL
她低聲說。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnUEH44y7v
聲音被風帶走，連她自己都聽不太清。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQFtf5ejPS
她知道那不是裝的。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqZcta55Kp
也知道——32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0aUNTLYhz
那不是專給她留的位置。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdd3WZQcaxX
胸口有一瞬間發緊。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtjsfQcTuv
不是很重。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tft3WxNNn
但一直在。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYrzIyL14O
像有什麼慢慢往裡收。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CR6V8zjgf
她又吸了一口菸。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCeTIT4cs3
這一次太急。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSwGArF7jU
煙嗆進去。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8VyvgAguo
她終於輕輕咳了一聲。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8NXGRsCSD
聲音很低。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXzREq7JMZ
很短。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XMrn2AE3e
卻讓整個人顫了一下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XZRfiaThp
她皺了皺眉，像是在不滿這個失控。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHbyWoiL3N
很快又恢復。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbr2EX1TM4
——「既然妳還是我行我素，」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtAINBh3Qw
——「那就別上台了。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCmGNwMB5j
他停了一下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQlgHKEcVN
像是在給她選擇。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wHWWf290t
——「真要上，也行。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0hQDqmgWa
——「去後面，替新來的那幾個墊幾場。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFPSMKLNs2
父親的聲音乾淨、平直。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYekchSjoO
沒有情緒。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AfbmVor71
也沒有餘地。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5nDqiKeus
她低頭，看著手裡那根菸。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWlg1MJxqR
已經燒得很短。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRlXOp8ERX
火光貼近指尖。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMApPrh88t2
有點燙。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwk26hGvi9K
她卻沒有立刻掐掉。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVCqkc1W9z
只是盯著。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMGaUwuqvn
像是在確認那點熱，還在不在。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzb5MOClR1
風過來。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQjtaVObKW
火星晃了一下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczhTN6AbtM
她的手指終於動了。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwlVZ8qEW2
慢慢捻熄。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiSFApQnIR
這一次，用了點力。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQbbVQ0CC7
煙斷掉。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcAGFVhjGZ
灰落在地上，被風帶走。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfARVnMrZj
她沒有丟。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgYySwdMFy
只是把剩下的煙握在掌心。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXuv4XcqBz
指節一點一點收緊。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYanqykQP8
欄杆很冷。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZIA8StKYe
她靠著。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6nBG8yrbl
沒有動。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2IoNafMTb
樓下的聲音換了一輪。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dSDiFZS6T
燈也亮了又暗。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Zwz8DyBqN
像一場戲結束，又接上另一場。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRk5Y2PRjs
她站在高處，看得很清楚。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1DLPJ637L
卻忽然覺得——32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIVXObvPU9
那一切，都與她無關了。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3MZaWOQCR
光還在。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TcTHHzxDX
很亮。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCq1myHcyz
她看了一眼。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBQjXAvwjy
沒有多停。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXQoLLJ3GX
像是已經知道——32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHifR2cSe94
那裡不需要她。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFbtIVly07
她移開視線。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RwkVuNdEw
風還在吹。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3OBTuwm06
她沒有再點第二根菸。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96L0a4ed5v
—————32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jPk25EVcc
葉宅的夜很靜。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYuoIV2hOu
靜到連燈光都像被壓低了一層。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikj5oxWG5z
外頭的街聲隔著高牆傳不進來，只剩遠處偶爾一兩聲汽車碾過石路的聲響，很快又被黑暗吞掉。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTdNjbKSyH
窗半開著，風進不來，只在窗框邊緣輕輕停了一下，又退回去。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDng0g7HfYM
桌上擺著一瓶威士忌。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44ONxPmt5k
葉庭光沒有倒滿。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjm3EWzYjcV
杯裡只淺淺一層。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JSBCfmkfF
像只是為了讓自己有個動作。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0Xj6ka4Tw
他靠在椅背上，手指慢慢轉著杯腳，視線沒有落點。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lIdE9axUl
書房很靜。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMgjvxBBLe
靜到酒液輕晃的聲音，都顯得清楚。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvm8npoNWeA
他視線微微偏了一下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIiQDYvE8u
那張照片就在那裡。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtiluOUB6b
年輕的蘭心。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjC0KfjXMEc
還沒有現在的名字。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNeO86w6L5
相框放得很安靜，卻剛好落在光的邊緣。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JanPFkCOj
不像刻意被擺放，更像是某一次停下來之後，就再也沒有被移動過。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbfCYTLhxb
他看著她。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazoEf0Cw1x
沒有表情變化。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyQUTzpOaa
只是指尖在杯腳上停了一瞬。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkStyFIRJM
然後才慢慢往下沉。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOTcmYdmSY
——32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvEq1CYCng
書房的燈偏黃，但壓不住空氣裡的冷。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfryjpk4B6
丁永昌一進來，氣氛就變了。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4v7n8FAQo
變的更沉。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡka6Jk9pmB0
他沒有坐穩就開口。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPf8Lw5re6V
「葉先生。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsmkwmRwJt
聲音不高，但帶著明顯的情緒。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrETk2L2KQ
「你場子的人，膽子挺大。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGxKswGPES
他停了一下，視線直接落在葉庭光身上。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKE6I2pYVKP
「兩次。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpXFXXR9Fr
空氣頓住。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79m7JJRpEK
一旁楊經理的筆停在紙上。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1drYPIRQOL
丁永昌沒有繞。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaB7xkMWw7L
語氣甚至更冷了一點。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocR5jSxmDy
「我記得第一次，葉先生答應我，會給我個交代。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIliwJ1X0d
他微微往前傾。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbXefLUSPR
「想不到第二次還是如此。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Dqnrls1iI
他笑了一下，但沒有溫度。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZ5xZWy3Qs
那笑意很薄，像紙貼在刀口上。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcmVa2nmLm
他停了一下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXH1u4gAuO
視線沒有移開。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0QaqpjoHx
「葉先生。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SJWgN8CbK
語氣慢了半拍。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf07ukS2LUh
卻更準。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgkyp4so62
「有些人，值得你這樣袒護？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfi9mBsJjXq
這一句落下去，房間的空氣像是被重新標記了一次。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXfF5boi7Z
「還是說——」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNTNXwMv2C
他停了一下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktXECahFqP
「葉先生覺得，這個場子裡，有些人可以不守規矩？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouFy8GgGRo
葉庭光沒有立刻回答。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlPvqPfGEc
他只是把手放在桌面上。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaYI3Fkbkp
指尖很輕地收了一下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwIK95M6l4
然後開口。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCI2SI80eva
「丁先生。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uYbZdlqCh
他語氣不重。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8RXxwPBGB
但很穩。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ224M0SUIGq
「這件事，是我這邊失禮。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmxIV8fUzd
這一句讓房間靜了一瞬。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ544BUm1ICo
丁永昌看著他。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdp8n7233Io
眼神沒有放鬆。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvB4ylGrYko
「失禮？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3Et2XOXfo
他重複了一次。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvY7Cm8FCTA
像是在確認這個詞的重量。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCG101sarG
葉庭光沒有閃避。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZbkyo0gPp
「下面的人沒管好。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklofcpNZyW
他停了一下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74Fc9O7GTO
「讓丁先生不愉快，是我的問題。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTOXofWuYY
丁永昌沒有說話。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWG7oOv220T
他只是看著葉庭光，像是在衡量這句「失禮」值多少。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPO4cgWlOCk
然後，他往後靠了一點。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZLsOVHkv7
指尖輕敲桌面。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMdLj7neiP
一下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6sa8g1t71
兩下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzIPchMBue
「葉先生。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkNI71PqJf
他開口時，語氣依舊平。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwRbjQ7mu5
但內容開始變了。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFFwGwJ557
「我一直以為，盛樂門只是生意。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9nTEJoiJ9
他停了一下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8n1eTFmJqO
指尖輕敲桌面。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDVL8PJDFC
「是娛樂場所。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfY8pNPrq1
他抬眼。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsIyVfInYW
「唱曲、跳舞，撐場面，換票錢。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlu1ul465Qg
語氣沒有變重。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDcuSN5LDl
但字開始變冷。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWi35HaHxLC
「現在看來，好像不只是這樣。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypmauz413k
他語氣很慢。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsJLS9s2KG
像在陳述，而不是指控。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR63mBKBd25
葉庭光的手指微不可察地收緊了一瞬。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4Y72pzVHU
停頓。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmPq3lzZ39
很短。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ511xwIidwC
但足夠讓人聽懂。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegDWeWUmUO
「稅務、牌照、審查、甚至——」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruLWh4Up2V
他沒有說完。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwKn6GwoFz
只是看著他。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCrpMiuvpj
那個「甚至」沒有落地。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxTMxJdJir
但比落地更重。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0PFJv83r2
楊經理的筆完全停住。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0CVqwRdXV
股東沒有動。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNvAMYy2iX
丁永昌語氣稍微放輕了一點。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0itLlbp4F
但那種輕，是收刀前的平穩。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlslU1Qdg6k
「我不是來翻葉先生的舊帳。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJG9RhIM5Y
他說。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SOu8wNxM1
「我只是提醒一件事。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnU4wymwHP2
他停了一下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HG43PJkR3
「規矩如果在裡面不成立，那就會在外面成立。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvEBiquSze
這一句落下去。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHl2Z3DMp2Y
書房安靜得過頭。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiCX9kSIxs
他最後才補了一句。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqvfVUM78u
很淡。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYDylktpLB
卻是壓在最底的那一層。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79pDuPMnLW
「我不希望下一次，是用『調查報告』來談這件事。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwn634IOqw
「你說是吧，葉先生？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvp3JAJdUqT
他沒有立刻回答。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOIBk5bZGd
書房裡的燈偏暖，但落在桌面上時反而顯得更冷。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFY3kWgTeBU
酒杯停在指間，沒有再動。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvc1TBLAil
「用調查報告來談。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWarxxz70f
這幾個字被他在心裡重複了一次。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYmCgzuBCW
不是語氣。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHoI9xUcX4
是重量。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUeOjz6roM
葉庭光很清楚那意味著什麼。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0zj36ELnL
在座的每一個人亦是如此。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoeckYlSFi
他抬眼看了丁永昌一瞬。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgXnrOjdyS
沒有情緒。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGY4Wa0Rz8R
但視線比剛才更慢了一點。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxO3wicNrcF
「丁先生的意思，我明白。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7nIDKrGuz
——32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegdPrGqobb
空氣像被抽掉了一點聲音。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1jlDSBm8p
葉庭光沒有立刻動。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3htO9kiDB
他還坐著。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokqNcCWX3S
酒杯在指間停了一會，然後才慢慢放回桌上。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNufavB3fc8
沒有喝完。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRXxeD6oy8
也沒有再倒。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhZXmsOZG9
他看著那扇門。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4r3VwkRnM
很久。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCErZAMvi3z
門關著。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtdt9LOYRt
但那人說的話，並沒有離開。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhpm44e21g
——「規矩如果在裡面不成立，那就會在外面成立。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKDUbfwFz1
他終於把視線移開門。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6H3yrJWraa
慢慢落到書桌另一側。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1Yc3bArX0
書房很靜。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfELK8iCzt8
相框在那裡。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsTZ5Op7lZ
燈剛好落下去。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt71jnXBh0A
把那張臉照得很乾淨。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJG0T0aQWp
葉庭光看著她。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdGDBvf418
他慢慢開口。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAl5xesnS2r
聲音不高。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWhLZLzzNS
像不是對任何人說。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZzbl2ZjpR
「為什麼妳總是要違背我安排好的一切呢，蘭心？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoROEM8EaD
他沒有再看相框。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGpFcgK8lh
只是把視線慢慢收回來。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7trqbiDgRa
像已經完成某個判斷。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDR6CgZ8u9b
葉庭光伸手，把桌上的電話拿起來。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjzmD1Jyjr
動作很穩。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxKM0pPcc0
沒有多餘停頓。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy495VZO5lW
響了兩聲後，有人接起來。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiVTUE9nq7
「是我。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJiaLwT2jz
他語氣平。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEyjKawsYO
沒有起伏。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQdhWumxij
「盛樂門這週的排演表，改一下。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtohkNGWgZl
——32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81g0oML7KM
夜已經很深。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxkRJTD3Qm
窗外的街燈隔著玻璃滲進來，像一層被壓薄的光。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYrxs95aaI
沒有聲音。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8PoRa84Fk
也沒有風。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVGIRViAWX
