Novel Full River Town lied in the southern part of China. It was already very warm in mid-to-late April. Yu Qinghuan was wearing a white shirt and a pair of jeans. He was tall and handsome like a small white poplar growing under the sun. Wherever he went, he was always the focus of the crowd.
He still had no idea much about his current popularity. When he got off the plane with the film crew, he was shocked to see a large group of fans holding his nameplates.
Since they had to travel to five cities in two days, the film crew of Orange was racing against time, even their flight tickets for the first stop roadshow was booked on the same day’s early morning. But they arrived at the airport 8 hours after the booking.
However, in such a short time, the airport was filled with fans who came to pick up Qinghuan. The morning of early spring was still a little cold. Almost all of these lovely girls were wearing short skirts in order to show their idol their most beautiful side.
After a long waiting, their delicate makeup could not cover up their livid faces because of the coldness anymore.
But at the sight of Yu Qinghuan, they immediately seemed to forget all the pain of cold and waiting. They screamed with excitement and scrambled to rush toward him, hoping to have a close contact with their idol.
Yu Qinghuan had limited time and it was impossible for him to stop and sign for them. Just as he slowed down for a moment, Zhao Rui had been urging him with his eyes.
Their security guards lined like a huge mountain that could block everything, keeping Yu Qinghuan and his fans firmly separated from each other.
Seeing their idol drifting away, the girls’ faces couldn’t help but show disappointment and even their hands holding his nameplates fell down feebly.
At the time, Yu Qinghuan suddenly stopped. His voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by every fan present. “Thanks for waiting. Today I have a busy schedule. I’m sorry I can’t sign for you. I’ll have someone buy each of you a cup of milk tea later. After you get warm, please go home early.”
The noisy crowd quieted down instantly. Until Yu Qinghuan walked out of the airport, his fans could not withdraw their eyes focusing on his back and could not return to their absolute being.
His staff acted quickly, and cups of hot cocoa were handed out to his fans later, which warmed both their hands and hearts.
Whispered sobs rang out in the hall.
“Woo, Qinghuan is so sweet, I’m gonna follow him for my whole life!”
“No autograph or group photo, but this trip was really worth it.”
“Whoops, he is not rich himself but he is still so generous to us. I am really touched.”
…
In the car, Yu Xin complained about Yu Qinghuan, “You got loose hands. Fans are an unreliable group. They like you today and turn to support others tomorrow.”
Yu Qinghuan smiled and said with a soft tone, “I’ll take good care of them as long as they are with me.”
On the first day of the road show, Yu Qinghuan called Zhao Qingyuan following his promise.
Fans who came to support Yu Qinghuan did not expect such a huge surprise. They were so happy that they kept posting microblogs to express their excitement and added a lot of heat to the next few roadshows.
After the roadshow in River Town, Yu Qinghuan had no time to rest and hurried to the next city. After two roadshows, even if he was in good physical strength, he felt a little overwhelmed.
After greeting Zhao Rui, he returned to his room without even eating.
However, the strange thing was that his body was obviously tired, but he did not feel sleepy at all when he was lying on the bed after washing. It seemed that his drowsiness was washed away with the bath lotion.
Yu Qinghuan picked up his mobile phone, and his finger fixed on Huo Qu’s name unconsciously. After pausing for a few seconds, he put down the phone without his consent.
He already missed him after only one day apart.
Thinking of that man’s soft dimple and shy smiling face, Yu Qinghuan felt a fever in his heart. The impulse that had just been pressed down now rushed up like a tsunami, knocking his sanity apart.
Just this once, he would say nothing, he just wanted to listen to Huo Qu’s voice.
No, no, there must be a second time if he indulged himself. He must control his emotions.
Yu Qinghuan tossed his head distractedly. Just as he was about to hang up the phone, there came the familiar voice of Huo Qu, “Qinghuan!”
Yu Qinghuan didn’t expect him to answer it so fast. His thoughts suddenly became a mess. After being in a blank for a while, he managed to find a topic, “What are you doing now?”
“No…nothing,” A word of ordinary greetings made Huo Qu’s voice instantly down, he held his breath in panic, stammered to make a reply.
Yu Qinghuan immediately sensed something was wrong with him and sat up from his bed unconsciously. He asked nervously, “Huo Qu, are you all right?”
The other end of the phone suddenly fell silent.
Just when Yu Qinghuan couldn’t help urging, Huo Qu finally spoke.
The man who would always become extremely happy when he saw Yu Qinghuan was now filled with frustration and disappointment in his voice. Yu Qinghuan felt his heart was going to be pulled up.
He said, “I’m sorry, Qinghuan, I am a useless person just like what they said.” He choked slightly, “I thought I was smart, but I am not. My experiment failed again.”
He paused for a moment, then asked carefully and confusedly, “Qinghuan, do you think I am useless?”
Although conceiving well in his mind, he failed again in the real experiment. Huo Qu pressed his lips tightly and his eyes were full of pain.
“Qinghuan was so perfect and he would shine when standing on the stage, while my research projects keep failing. How could I be a friend of Qinghuan if I go on like this? “thought Huo Qu.
An unprecedented fear, like a slippery marble ball, filled his chest, rolling and colliding, lingering.
“Of course not.” Yu Qinghuan replied without thinking, “You are the best person in the world and you’re doing great work. Why would you think that?”
Yu Qinghuan’s heart was almost shaking with pain. Huo Qu was so good, simple and sincere. He was just slightly different from ordinary people. How could those people be so vicious and hurt him with such abusing words?
The thought of Huo Qu being hurt by someone in somewhere he didn’t know made Yu Qinghuan feel miserable.
“Huo Qu, don’t care about other people’s words, or deny yourself because of them, you know?”
“No.” Huo Qu’s eyelashes quivered, “I don’t care about what they say.”
“Then why are you so upset?”
“I’m just afraid you’ll be disappointed in me…”
“I won’t.” Yu Qinghuan’s heart suddenly became sour and swollen. “Huo Qu, you are always the best in my heart.”
