Stay by My Side (2023)

[reviews_and_ramblings]

 Stay by My Side was really funny, even if dealing with ghosts, the horror aspect was more comedy than drama. The real surprise was that, at first, I didn't think the couple Gu Bu Xia and Jiang Chi would work. But I was completely wrong, they were quite sweet together, and it was also funny the interaction they had with their fellow college students. I also liked that Jiang Chi didn't reject Gu Bu Xia once he knows about their link, and instead he is supportive of him. Something that I really didn't get is Jiang Chi's estrangement from his family, and the reason why he didn't follow on their steps... but this is really a minor issue that is not removing much to my enjoyment of the story. HEA. You can see it on GagaOOLala and Viki. Heat Level: 4/6.
