Broken in the glass heart of Shanghai

Yin Xiang is the Huangpu River lane grew up in Jin Zhiyuye, after graduating from university in Shanghai to do independent decoration designer, very fashionable very free occupation, there is a not low income, and she is not happy. Because Shanghai world is big, so her heart and dream also float very high, unwilling to do a Shanghai small jasper.

In the spring of 21, fate deliberately arranged Yin Xiang to get to know Du Huaiyu from Baishui, a small town in northwest China. It was a small party held in Shangri-La near the river. There was no lack of fashionable men and women among the guests, only Yin Xiang and Du Huaiyu, who wore simple and simple but elegant cloth single shirt, but special.

They sat across from each other, attracted by the similarity of their clothes. In the middle of the party, Yin Xiang suddenly found a hole in her silk shawl burned by a careless customer's cigarette ash. Du Huaiyu, a gentleman, came forward to pull out a chair for her. He saw it and gently rubbed it with his hand, and then judged it expertly: "It seems not the current product." Yin Xiang casually told that it was a few decades ago in Suzhou old store of crepe de chine mercerized silk, Du Huaiyu heard, more and more carefully, the heart is also more and more for Yin Xiang regret.

When the party broke up, Du Huaiyu unexpectedly asked Yin Xiang, who was not familiar with him, to repair the silk shawl. The word "repair" let Yin Xiang surprise, the colorful Shanghai has no repair said, and this Du Huaiyu but seriously for her to do. Naturally, Yin Xiang was also a little moved.

See Yin Xiang promised, Du Huaiyu inexplicably happy, and then presumptuously asked her for a mobile phone number. Wait FOR Yin XIANG TO GET OFF THE CAR, WALK MORE AND MORE FAR TO DISAPPEAR in the community's path THAT end, his mind also move. He had come to Shanghai to study carving and was leaving near the end of his studies, but now he suddenly had the idea to stay. Sometimes people are very strange, he only wanted to see the world of Shanghai at first, saw the Yin Xiang of Shanghai, but really have want to stay for this girl and determined.

Du stayed for Yin Xiang, working as a process designer for a company in Shanghai. After more than two months, he sent Yin Xiang a message on his mobile phone and asked her tactfully: "Do you remember someone who wants to repair your silk shawl?" Yin Xiang thought, of course I remember, but the impression is a little weak.

The second time they met, in the square in front of the museum, Yin Xiang was still wearing "Jiangnan cloth clothes", but the style had changed. Du Huaiyu solemnly returned the silk shawl in a box to Yin Xiang. When she opened it, she saw that it was embroidered with a green lotus on the damaged hole. It was elegant Chinese ink and wash style.

Yin Xiang liked it at the sight and put it on her shoulder. The square sky when dusk is HIGH cloud pale green grass white pigeon, Yin Xiang is idle "cloth of the south of the Yangtze River" matching contracted silk cape, the girl in that way lining scene, Du Huaiyu's mood also moves as turn over to fly pianpianmove.

After a long time, he said to her, "I'll make you a gift to match this shawl." What is it? Yin Xiang gazed curiously at Du Huaiyu of this dim grace with her eyes. He did not say, in his heart, hope that there will be a different suspense, with love to begin with.

Days passed quickly, to their second year of heart-to-heart intercourse, but there is another Taiwan youth inserted in, called A Jian. This A JIAN, JUST TOOK DOCTOR'S DEGREE OF UNIVERSITY OF California OF THE United States, THE HOME HAS BUSINESS IN SOUTHEAST Asia and other places, recently DID A factory in Shanghai. In front of all these foundations, Yin Xiang's mind is confused, she constantly secretly weigh, weigh, compare, wander, and then constantly convince themselves to decide between the two men as soon as possible. You know, a lot of temptations sometimes can't be indifferent.

When Yin Xiang's twenty-third birthday came, the two gifts arrived at the door almost at the same time. Ah Jian gave him a white gold and diamond ring with the family mark on it, with half an unmistakable value. Du Huaiyu gave me a bright red and clear glass heart in a small casket. At first glance, I knew that the glass heart was actually the promise he had made in the museum square. It was beautiful.

Yin Xiang closed the golden box of that moment, looking at Du Huaiyu eyes in front of the expectation bit by bit lost, her heart is not clearly to hurt once, but very clear that they can not continue to hesitate. Glass heart back in front of Du Huaiyu, he blocked, said: "Just a birthday gift, I wish you happy, I wish you happy." The tone was still gentlemanly, but Yin Xiang could recognize the melancholy sadness. She dare not raise an eye to look at, holding the golden box in her hand to go out, outside is a blue bird car waiting for Jian -- he has ordered a birthday party for her in Shangri-La, the little girl in Shanghai Beach, in the end can not take off a common heart to the desire of common feelings.

After Yin Xiang wishes to marry A Jian, still emigrated to go to France, did not have contact gradually with the friend of home.

Three years later in the summer, Du Huaiyu, as a young artist, went to Paris to hold an exhibition of his works. Unexpectedly, he met Yin Xiang by the fountain of Place de la Concorde at dusk. She was dressed in a gorgeous silk dress, still young and beautiful. Du did not ask her if she was well, because he could see at a glance that Yin Xiang's eyes could not hide the lonely and sad.

Then they drank coffee together by the roadside, talking very little, if at all politely. In that moment of change, all you can do is to drop out of the water.

At the moment of farewell, Du said to Yin Xiang, "It's a little cold. You should have brought a shawl out." Yin Xiang was immediately impressed and said with a smile, "I have been wearing that silk shawl, but I forgot it today. And the glass heart you gave me, which goes well with the shawl." Du did not speak again -- it took him ten months to make the glass heart, and Yin Xiang would never know that the glass and gold had to be fused together to create such a red and exquisite glass heart.

Yin Xiang watched Du Huaiyu's back along the street and began to smile a little. On the first day when she and her husband came to Paris, the glass heart was broken at the bottom of the luggage compartment. It was pushed by her by herself and it was just broken by a slight shaking.

As night falls, Paris wakes up. In the splendor of the whole city, the lonely Yin Xiang Weoran remembers Shanghai, remembers the silk cape and the broken glass heart at the Shangri-La party. Young love ah, sometimes like the glass heart, very beautiful, but also very fragile, always so easily broken in the material and flashy behind the oscillation.
