I woke up as the Villainous Empress
"So, you're telling me you don't want to marry me? Didn’t you fight for this?" Crown Prince Zheng Liang was stunned. Yang Ning, the notorious schemer, wanted to call off their engagement? He thought he'd be relieved, but her sudden boldness had him questioning everything. "Your Highness, I don't want to be a sacrificial lamb, thank you very much," Yang Ning retorted with a fake smile, inwardly groaning. ‘Just break it off already!’ Fang Li, once a national treasure as an archery champion, finds her career and life on the brink of ruin after being embroiled in a scandal. But when she wakes up in a novel as Yang Ning—the villainess fated to become the most despised Empress and the fiancée of a Crown Prince who detests her—she’s determined not to follow the script! Armed with wit, humor, and a fierce will to survive, Yang Ning is set on rewriting her destiny. The twist? The Crown Prince, who’s supposed to loathe her, seems far too interested in her now. Can she escape her villainous destiny, or will she get tangled in royal drama and unexpected romance? ## Note: No extended misunderstandings or breakups—there will be some drama, but only to make the romance even better. This is a fun, romantic comedy full of witty banter! Cover: Original cover design by the author – kindly refrain from using without permission.

Sudden Attack III
Yang Ning pressed her hands over her ears, sinking to the floor of the carriage to shield herself from the terrifying noise of clashing swords and the agonized groans of combatants.
Her hands trembled as she murmured a fervent prayer in fear, "Zheng Liang, please be safe."
"He will be unharmed," she assured herself.
"The male lead never dies. He can't die." Her voice wavered in a low whisper, her eyes squeezed tightly shut.
Unbidden tears began to stream down her cheeks. She had always seen herself as strong and a bold person with no fears. Even when facing a wild bear, she maintained her composure, fighting to save her own life.
She had always believed that, regardless of the circumstances, she would maintain her composure, confronting every situation with courage and unwavering resolve.
