A Reusable Gift | 可重复使用的礼物

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

“要我把她的名字刻在上面吗?”珠宝商问道。

那名顾客想了一会儿,然后说道:“不,在上面刻‘给我唯一的爱’。这样,如果我们分手了,我还可以再用到它。”
