Beautiful gifts

As they sat, Si Xia said, "I wanna give you something."

Yu Chen turned her head to look at him with a puzzled expression. Si Xia took out a little box from his pocket.

Yu Chen was immediately shocked. She did not like expensive gifts and thought that they were too small and did not earn money, so thy should never spend their parents' money lavishly.

She said, "Xia, you really did not need to get me anything. You after all have only a limited amount in your bank account." Si Xia surprisingly had a bank account that his parents had left him. He never told anyone how much amount there was, but Yu Chen was sure that it was quite much, judging by his laptop, which was one of the most expensive in the world.

Yu Chen also often wondered what kind of problem his parents had that if they were rich enough to leave an infant with a bank account, why not take care of your child yourself?

Si Xia let out a smile and said, "It's nothing expensive. Really. And I did not use my account money for this. Just open it."

Yu Chen hesitantly took the box and opened it. Inside were two very pretty hair clips. They were both in the shape of butterflies perfected to the last detail. There was one small diamond on each wing. The clips were not too dazzling and were plain but beautiful, just like Chen loved. She looked at the box and then at Xia. She said ver slowly, "These are very beautiful."

Si Xia scratched his head and said, "I know you don't like girly things. But when I saw these clips, I couldn't help but imagine how pretty you would look in them."

Yu Chen was a bit worried, "But they must have cost a lot."

Si Xia shook his head, "Don't worry. The diamonds are not real and the clips did not come from any jwellery shop. They're not really expensive."

Yu Chen was still doubtful, "Really?"

Si Xia: "Really."

Yu Chen then looked at the clips and smiled like a little girl. She closed the box and said, "Maybe I'll keep them then."

Si Xia let out a relived sigh and smile. He had been really worried that Chen would not like the gift he bought. He had spent the whole previous Sunday running from one gift shop to another before he had come across the clips.

Yu Chen suddenly remembered something and said, "Oh yeah. I wanted to give you something too."

Si Xia was puzzled and raised an eyebrow. Yu Chen brought out a pen drive from her pocket and put it in Xia's hands.

Seeing his confused expression, Chen explained, "It's a code. It's actually the code I wrote for open 99 software competition. I made some modifications so it should be better than it was during the competition."

Si Xia was dumbfounded. True, during the last time, he had built his company around this very code and thr company had gotten a lot successful. But that had caused him to be really disturbed. He hated the company that was built on the code Chen had written with so much care and had been stripped from her. He hated the fact that he was deriving fortune from Chen's misery.
