Stay by My Side
Anthropology student Gu Bu Xia, raised in a temple, has always feared ghosts despite his grandfather being a spirit medium. Shielded by a talisman from childhood, Bu Xia's peace shatters after his grandfather's death…
Gu Bu Xia is a cheerful but academically challenged anthropology student who has lived his whole life terrified of ghosts, despite being raised in a temple by his grandfather, a powerful spirit medium. His only protection is a talisman that shields him from the supernatural world—until his sister accidentally destroys it, unleashing a cacophony of ghostly whispers and demands that threaten his sanity. In desperation, Bu Xia discovers that physical contact with his new, annoyingly perfect roommate Jiang Chi temporarily silences the voices. Jiang Chi, a cool and focused law student, initially can't stand Bu Xia's childish antics, but soon finds himself drawn to the clingy, panic-stricken boy who keeps touching him. What begins as a reluctant alliance of convenience quickly spirals into an unexpectedly sweet, enemies-to-lovers romance as Bu Xia must navigate his growing feelings, the meddling ghosts who turn into unlikely wingmen, and the secret truth behind his supernatural connection to Jiang Chi. Part supernatural mystery, part hilarious college comedy, Stay by My Side is a heart-fluttering ride about finding safety in the arms of your worst enemy.
