Don’t Fall In Love With The Boss

Qian Wei’s last regret in her life was at the age of 19, when she offended Lu Xun, known as the “Light of the Law School”. She helped her brother Qian Chuan to pry at Lu Xun’s corner and robbed Mo Zixin from him. Who knew that Lu Xun would become her boss one day, and Qian Wei could only work like a cow or horse for atonement. But now God gave her the opportunity to return to the age of 19. Qian Wei said that she will help Lu Xun and ensure that he and Mo Zixin will be together. But … Why did she seem to offend Lu Xun more thoroughly? Help! She just wanted to help the future boss fall in love, not to fall in love with the future boss! Qian Wei complained a lot about her boss: “Doesn’t Lu Xun have a private life? He works overtime all day, is he not afraid of developing kidney deficiency?” Until one day, her boss called her to the office: Lu Xun: Today, don’t work overtime. Come to my house. Qian Wei: ??? Lu Xun smiled indifferently: A good boss should not let employees always have doubts. Tonight, I will show you personally that I don’t have kidney deficiency.

## My Thoughts on Don’t Fall In Love With The Boss "Don’t Fall In Love With The Boss" is a completed web novel in the josei genre that I recently finished, and I have *thoughts*. With its blend of romance, school life, and mature themes, it's a story that certainly leaves an impression, though not always a consistently positive one. It was quite a ride! ### First Impressions Initially, I was drawn in by the premise: a woman gets a second chance and goes back to her college days with the intent of setting up her future boss with someone else. I found the female lead, Qian Wei, to be funny and witty. The story had comedic undertones that were quite charming, and the male lead, Lu Xun, initially presented as the classic cold, aloof type, piqued my interest. ### What Works Well The relationship between Qian Wei and Lu Xun is undeniably the strongest aspect of the novel. I appreciated how their dynamic evolved, particularly after they became a couple. The author does a great job of portraying the tenderness and sweetness of their romance. Many readers praised the witty and goofy Qian Wei and her interactions with the male lead. Some readers also thought the author nailed the campus scenery and mood. ### Areas of Concern While the sweetness was a plus, I did find myself occasionally cringing at the female lead's actions. Several reviewers found her dense and immature, especially considering her age. I can see their point – sometimes her naivety stretched the limits of believability. Also, Lu Xun is a bit *too* perfect. He's practically superhuman, excelling at everything he does, which makes him less relatable. There were also mixed opinions on the ending. Some find the ending heartwarming and that everything makes sense at the end. Others find the twist at the end frustrating. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Okay, let's talk about *that* twist. It seems Qian Wei's "rebirth" might not be what it seems. Some readers feel cheated by the revelation that much of the story was based on a dream or altered memories. The twist left me conflicted, too. It's a bold move, but it undermines some of the emotional investment. ### Final Verdict Overall, "Don’t Fall In Love With The Boss" is a mixed bag. If you're looking for a light, fluffy romance with some genuinely sweet moments, and don't mind overlooking some inconsistencies and character flaws, you might enjoy it. However, if you prefer more realistic characters and a plot that holds together under scrutiny, this might not be the novel for you. I'd give it a tentative recommendation, but with a few caveats.
