It's not much, but it's home.

Yu Chen's heart felt like it was about to jump out of her chest. It was beating so fast that you could practically hear it if you wanted to.

Yu Chen put a hand on her chest as she screamed at Xi Hua, "Damn it Hua, what was that? I'm getting a driver's license first thing in the morning tomorrow. Never trusting you again!!!"

Xi Hua gripped Chen's shoulders and began to shake her, saying, "You guys kissed!!!!! Really!?!?! Is that really, truly, true!?!?!?"

Yu Chen remembered what they were talking about before Xi Hua nearly killed them both.

She removed Hua's hands from her shoulders and said, "Yeah."

Xi Hua was so excited that she began to basically jump up and down in her seat. "Tell me everything!! It is such a big deal!!! Oh I know, I need to tell Zenghai."

Xi Hua immediately took out her phone to call Huo Zenghai.

Yu Chen hurriedly stopped her and said, "Is that really a big deal? Is "kissing" such a big deal to you?"

Xi Hua was a bit embarrassed before she realised that Chen was only trying to change the subject. She pointed a finger at her and said, "Don't try ro change the subject. Tell me everything, all the details."

Yu Chen crossed her arms, "After you almost killed us? I don't think so."

Xi Hua: "Oh come on Chen, am I not your bestest friend in the whole world?"

Yu Chen: "Right now, you're only the person who tried to murder me. So no."

Xi Hua decided to use her last tactic. She said, "If you don't, I might ask Zenghai to ask Si Xia."

Yu Chen was startled for a bit but she said, waving her hand, "Sure, go ahead. I'll make sure I come to yours and Zenghai's joint funeral." Saying this, Yu Chen put on her headphones and began playing her favourite songs by connecting it to her phone.

Xi Hua muttered something like traitor and never talking again as she started the car. Yu Chen knew Hua would come around soon enough, so she turned her head to look out the window.

Her face still had a tinge of red as Chen remembered the events of the car before reaching the restaurant.

Xi Hua called out to Yu Chen when they had reached her apartment. They made their way into the lift, lugging Chen's bags with them.

Xi Hua lived on the third floor, they reached there and pulled all the luggage inside Hua's apartment. Xi Hua stood with her hands on her hips as she said, "It's not much. But it's home. More home than my own house ever felt."

Yu Chen looked around the apartment. It was pretty simple, a living room with couches and a coffee table, a hall in which the dining table was put, adjoined to an open kitchen, one bathroom, and two bedrooms.

Yu Chen said, "I love it."

Xi Hua pointed Chen towards one of the bedrooms. She said, "It's smaller than mine and is not very clean, but at least it has a bed. Come on."

Yu Chen entered the room with her bag slung over her shoulder. She whistled as she entered it, "My my. Looks like Zenghai is spending quite a bit on you. This 'smaller' bedroom is bigger than my dorm."
