Drama Digest

My Dearest Boss is a short and sweet Chinese web series about Yu Xing Chui and how one day luck favours her and changes her life by 180 degrees. One fine day, Yu while working received a mysterious call which informs her that she will be inheriting a ten-million-dollar estate. It only gets better or maybe worse when she finds out who her neighbour is.

The Feel-Good Part

The series has great visuals and aesthetics. The female lead is very cute as well. The romance between the leads starts as hate which gradually makes way for love, which is most exciting. Not only love but friendships and the complicated relationships between family members are shown as well. The cherry on the cake is the length of the series. Since it is very short, one can watch it without any guilt and get a healthy dose of sweetness as well. The side characters are hilarious and mysterious as well.

The Disappointing Factor

There are times when the series skids off from the main plot and focuses on a few unnecessary scenes. The story is dragged forcibly at places where it could have been cut short. The acting of the cast is questionable at some moments and looks forced and stiff. It may feel boring and does not make much of an impression as a series.
