HUFT Chapter 1

With a hum, the plane landed at City A’s airport. The once sparse and empty plaza became agitated by this sound, the quiet plaza suddenly becoming bustling. Waves of people surged, rushing towards the exit. Some passersby, unaware of what was happening, wore puzzled expressions, not knowing what was going on.

The one who could cause such a stir late at night was, of course, Fu Chaoyun. After getting off the plane, Fu Chaoyun went directly through the VIPVIP channel. Even though it was already two in the morning, his outstanding looks and impressive acting skills had attracted a large number of fans. This was why the moment the plane landed, the area became crowded – fans had come to pick up Fu Chaoyun.

“It’s late, arrange a car to send them back.”

Although Fu Chaoyun used the VIP channel, he knew that a large group of fans, mostly young girls, were still waiting at the arrival gate. Letting a group of young girls take taxis alone so late at night would definitely be unsafe, so Fu Chaoyun instructed his manager to arrange transportation.

“Alright, you be careful on your way back as well. Remember to look at the things I sent you.”

The manager gave Fu Chaoyun these instructions as they parted ways. Fu Chaoyun nodded in response and continued walking outside, leaving the aftermath to be handled by his manager.

Outside the airport, a low-profile black Maybach was parked by the roadside. His assistant, Little Zhu, opened the car door for Fu Chaoyun, letting him get in first.

Fu Chaoyun got into the car, rubbed his sore shoulders, leaned back in the seat, and closed his eyes to rest. The main drama he had just finished filming had wrapped up, so he decided to take two days off. A few days ago, the little tyrant of his family had fallen ill, and he was worried, so he flew to City A. The next day he rushed back to the film set to continue filming. The back and forth of two days had caused him to be particularly tired today, wanting to sleep as soon as he got into the car, but he couldn’t fall asleep, so he had to close his eyes and rest.

“Ding-dong.”

Fu Chaoyun was originally resting with his eyes closed, but he heard a ding-dong sound, which seemed to be coming from his phone.

Fu Chaoyun took out his phone from his pocket and saw two messages that had been sent in the local dating app match, the messages from 【Nanchi Rujiang】

“Hello, I am Nanchi Rujiang.”

The message was from a day ago.

“Are you busy today?”

The message was from one minute ago.

This was another thing that gave Fu Chaoyun a headache. A few days ago, his niece was sick, and his older sister, Fu Shi, was temporarily unable to return from abroad. Fu Chaoyun was afraid she would be bored in the hospital, so he gave her his phone to play with, wanting her to download some games so she wouldn’t be too bored. He didn’t expect her to download a local dating app. He was busy catching a flight at the time, and then he was filming after returning, so he almost forgot about it. Only now, when he saw the message from this matched person, did he remember.

Fu Chaoyun originally wanted to uninstall this app, but unexpectedly, Nanchi Rujiang sent a voice message the next second. Fu Chaoyun didn’t intend to open it, but he accidentally pressed the wrong button while uninstalling, and a clear spring-like voice flowed into Fu Chaoyun’s ears.

“Am I bothering you? I just saw that you were online.”

A University dormitory building.

It was already night, and Chi Nan carefully sent messages to 【Fu】 on his phone. After sending them, he listened to them again. He didn’t think his voice was unpleasant, and this Fu was showing as online.

“Could it be that my voice is too unpleasant and scared him away?”

Chi Nan was a little puzzled. The voice that came out of his phone was pleasant, but why wasn’t Fu replying?

【No, just got off the plane】

Fu Chaoyun typed a reply.

Because of the accidental opening of this voice message, he unexpectedly found that this voice was very pleasant. He could clearly feel that the other person was a little nervous, but it was this somewhat inexperienced voice that made Fu Chaoyun a little relaxed. A day’s worth of fatigue seemed to have been alleviated a little by this voice.

Speaking of which, no matter how many methods Fu Chaoyun used or how many medications he took for his insomnia, he would sometimes wake up in the middle of the night. The doctor said that he had insomnia syndrome, and the medication could only give him a short period of sleep, suggesting that he relax and listen to more music or travel. These methods had all been tried, but they still didn’t work for Fu Chaoyun. But just now, a short voice message had given Fu Chaoyun a moment of trance, which was why Fu Chaoyun’s hand moved from the uninstall button to the typing keyboard.

“Just got off the plane? Then you should hurry up and rest, it’s already very late, so I won’t bother you.”

Chi Nan was still wondering why Fu wasn’t replying to him. He thought Fu might have already uninstalled the app and didn’t expect to receive Fu’s reply the next second, even though it was just a text version.

【Okay】

Fu Chaoyun replied by typing on his phone, although it was just a simple “Okay.”

Chi Nan saw the message sent by the other party and felt that this Fu was quite aloof, as if the fewer words he used, the better.

Chi Nan didn’t care anymore, looked at the weather outside, and couldn’t fall asleep anyway. The weather forecast said that it would rain and thunder tonight, and Chi Nan was afraid of thunder, especially on nights with thunder like nightmares. His three roommates were also not around today. Chi Nan was alone in the dormitory and had nowhere to go, not knowing who to talk to.

Chi Nan felt a moment of emotion, feeling that he had lived for nineteen years without having many people he could confide in, having to rely on the internet to vent.

“I’m afraid to sleep, the weather forecast says it will thunder and rain tonight.”

Chi Nan held down the voice button and sent a message to Fu. He didn’t have anyone to talk to, and only Fu seemed to reply to his messages.

After a while, Chi Nan received Fu’s message.

【Are you afraid of thunder?】

“Yes, a little.”

When Fu Chaoyun opened the voice message, he heard that the other person’s voice was a bit muffled, and the other person might not be in a good mood like him.

“What about you, why aren’t you sleeping yet? Haven’t you arrived at your place of stay yet?”

【Sort of】

“What do you mean ‘sort of’? If you’ve arrived, you’ve definitely arrived, and if you haven’t, you haven’t.”

【Almost there】

Chi Nan saw the message sent by the other party, feeling that this Fu person was cold, and couldn’t help but click on the profile to take a look.

“Twenty-seven years old, the profile picture looks pretty good, why does he feel so cold?”

Fu Chaoyun’s photo was a black silhouette, not showing his face, but in the silhouette, Fu Chaoyun was wearing a black shirt, looking very tall.

The Maybach was driving at high speed on the highway. Little Zhu, who had been sitting in the back and watching all the way, finally couldn’t help but speak.
