I'd be happy to help you with that.
To update the nameservers for your domain at Cloudflare to point to the ones provided by freehosting, you can follow these steps:
1. Log in to your Cloudflare account and select your domain.
2. Go to the DNS tab.
3. Click on Nameservers.
4. Click on Change nameservers.
5. Enter the two nameserver addresses provided by freehosting in the Nameserver 1 and Nameserver 2 fields.
6. Click Save.
Please note that it may take some time for the changes to propagate globally.

Additionally, you can also refer to the Cloudflare documentation on updating nameservers: https://developers.cloudflare.com/dns/nameservers/update-nameservers/
Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns!

It seems like you've updated the nameservers, but the website is still not working.
According to Cloudflare's documentation, when you update your nameservers, it may take some time for the changes to propagate globally. This is because DNS changes can take up to 24 hours to propagate.
However, I notice that you've only updated the nameserver for the
@ record, which is the root domain. You should also update the nameservers for the www subdomain, if you have one.
Additionally, you should ensure that the nameservers are updated correctly at your registrar (in this case, Cloudflare). You can verify this by checking the Cloudflare DNS settings for your domain.

To troubleshoot further, you can try the following:
1. Check the Cloudflare DNS settings for your domain to ensure that the nameservers are updated correctly.
2. Verify that the nameservers are propagated globally using online tools such as WhatsMyDNS.net.
3. Check the freehosting documentation to ensure that you've set up the DNS records correctly on their end.
If you're still having issues, feel free to provide more details, and I'll do my best to help you troubleshoot!Sources

Domains purchased with Cloudflare Registrar cannot change their nameservers without being transferred to a different Registrar
You should check if Freehosting supports setup with A/AAAA records instead
Thank you🧡
I think I should consider using my own server
