Give Me A Hug

Description

Xie Jiaran deals with mild skin hunger syndrome, however, he also has severe mysophobia, to the extent that he even considers whether he has wet wipes on him before shaking hands with others.

Thus, whenever his skin hunger happens to break out, he can only resort to sleep to numb himself. Fortunately, the symptoms are relatively mild to be considered painful.

However, all of this was mercilessly disrupted after Liang Sunian moved into the dormitory.

To his surprise, he actually showed no resistance to this person’s closeness. Even as Liang Sunian stood off the court, lifting the hem of his shirt to drink water after playing basketball, an irresistible urge to be tightly held in his arms surged within him.

As the sleep therapy failed, his skin hunger syndrome worsened.

…….

One late night, Liang Sunian, who was suffering from insomnia due to the heat, got up shirtless and went to cool off on the balcony. He appeared bewildered as he stared at Xie Jiaran.

“What?” Liang Sunian felt he was hallucinating due to the heat getting to his head.

How could his typically aloof roommate, even while casting such a glance that seemed like granting a favor, say such words to him?

Xie Jiaran fell silent for a moment. He repeated the previous words in his usual cold tone, trying to stay composed yet inevitably conveying a hint of resignation:

“Liang Sunian, could you please hold me for a while?”

Honestly, I was delighted with the main couple. Considering the number of chapters, the story was well-developed and not overly exaggerated.

MC has the hunger syndrome on his skin, but at the same time, he suffers from severe misophobia, which requires him to resort to sleep therapy to calm down. However, he discovers that he doesn't feel uncomfortable watching his roommate sweat on the basketball court; on the contrary, he just wants to touch him.

Given that, MC never openly approaches ML, to the point of even avoiding him, which leads to... more>> a misunderstanding. ML thinks that MC dislikes him. Therefore, when MC asks him for a hug, ML is completely surprised and confused.

As the story progresses, we realize that, contrary to the rumors about MC, he is not someone completely cold but rather somewhat shy and eager to be loved. So, it didn't surprise me much that after MC realizes he romantically likes ML, he asks his only friend how to pursue someone.

The narrative focuses on the gradual building of the relationship between MC and ML. The story balances romantic elements well with moments of tension and resolution of minor misunderstandings—seriously, very few.

Although MC has personal and emotional challenges due to his conditions, the plot doesn't solely focus on his struggles but also highlights the overcoming and support from ML—although there's also a bit of selfishness from both, as it all began with MC's syndrome.

Overall, the novel offers a charming experience. Highly recommended if you want to read something short, calm, and very romantic. <<less

The story is really sweet and fluffy. The MC is a cute and cold guy. He has mysophobia so he can't get close to other people. Unfortunately the MC also has skin hunger and ML is his only cure. He just wants a hug from ML <3

This story is so sweet it’s insane. The MC and ML get together pretty fast, though not without its ups and downs (though even the “chasing” by MC was still very cute). I really, really like their relationship. Normally, when the ML is as doting as this one, it’s easy to feel like the relationship is unbalanced, but here, it’s obvious that they’re both extremely in love with each other, there also seems to not be any of the typical h*mophobia, so it’s really refreshing! Highly recommend for anyone that... more>> wants to read a refreshing story of two people deeply in love ❤️ <<less

MC was cute when he was chasing ML but he felt flat after they moved in together. I like MC's friend more--Lin ShanShan is so cute lol

SOOOO DAMN FLUFFY CUTE ADORABLE PRECIOUS!!! MC Xie Jiaran is like a soft tiny little kitten whereas the ML Liang Sunian is like a big warm cuddly golden retriever. I cannot with this pairing. Too cute too adorable too sweetttt!!

There is a little bit angst from Xie Jiaran's side but nothing too bad cause ML is there to save his day :> also I really love love the ML's family... like they are all so warm loving and accepting.

Spoiler

i just didnt like that MC Xie Jiaran's mom side of the story wasnt very complete. Her part ended with a phone call with MC saying something like if you can accept me and ML tgt then we will just not go back often then she totally didnt appear again after that. Left me wondering what now between the MC and his mom. And js saying I absolutely hate his mom for not caring for him the slightest bit after getting a new family so I rlly wanted to know if it was a clean cut between them or not. And whether she regretted or not.

It’s a short sweet fluff. So if you need something to past the time and didn’t want anything heavy, this story is perfect for you.

It’s about Xie Jiaran, our shou that has an extreme mysophobia but on top of that he has skin hunger too! Our MC really suffered sigh

It’s a good thing that our gong, Liang Sunian is around. He’s the only exception to the shou’s mysophobia so Jiaran can touch him and alleviate his skin hunger symptoms. And oh, he dotes. A lot.

I love that it’s the shou taking the initiative to pursue the gong! And the gong is the one who is dense

This was realllyyy good until the MC realized his own feeling and started to "persue" the ML, after this, a lot of things MC did start to feel unecessary.

For those who don't like unecessary scenes/action from characters like me, this arc feels very draggy. The MC at some points in this arc just straight up lies to the ML in an attempt to test and make ML 'realize' his feelings, which really feels like he's taking the ML's worry/affection for him for granted.

This feels weird for me cus MC has... more>> been depicted as someone who js pretty straightforward and one who is not fond of complicating things. I tried chucking it all up to "well, this is his first time persuing someone" but then when he actually KNOWS the ML likes him back for sure, he still does the same "instead of trying to communicate with him with my words, let's just provoke reactions from him with my actions and act like I don't know anything".

It's a good read, just maybe not for those who hate the "unecessary non communicative push and pull?" trope/arc. <<less

Fluffy!! The ML is so doting and whipped and the MC is so cute and lovable. This bears some resemblance to wifty, but if we’re doing direct novel to novel comparison, this is better. I really resented the mom and her bias towards the younger son, and that kid was a bit*h too.
