Mending the Broken Jade Hairpin, Weaving the Fractured Dream

share time: 2025-10-28 06:01:08

Lin Wanxia, a cultural relic restorer, is obsessed with repairing a broken jade hairpin—the "token of promise" left by the boy who saved her from drowning in childhood. A decade later, she thinks her fractured dream is beyond repair, until Gu Shen, an antique shop owner, shows up with half a matching jade hairpin, claiming to "redeem the promise from years ago." But Gu Shen's approach feels like a mystery: he knows every crack of the hairpin yet avoids talking about his sudden disappearance back then; he helps her complete the hairpin but stares at old photos in a daze at night. When the hairpin is finally whole, Lin Wanxia discovers Gu Shen is the boy from her childhood—he didn't disappear; he just had a leg injury from saving her, and spent ten years gathering courage to come back and mend both the hairpin and her fractured dream.
