A Reusable Locket | 可重复使用的小盒

English Original

At a jewelry store, a young man bought an expensive locket as a present for his girlfriend. "Shall I engrave her name on it?" the jeweler asked.

The customer thought for a moment, and then said, "No—engrave it 'To my one and only love'. That way, if we ever break up, I can use it again."


中文翻译

在一家珠宝店,一位年轻男子买了一个昂贵的小盒作为礼物送给他的女朋友。珠宝商问道:“需要我把她的名字刻在上面吗?”

顾客想了一会儿,然后说:“不——刻上‘给我唯一的爱’。这样,如果我们分手了,我还可以再用它。”
