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.

You're coming with me
Similar to Yang Ning, outside the chamber, Zheng Liang was also experiencing a mix of nervousness and exhilaration. It had been a considerable amount of time since their last meeting, and he eagerly anticipated the moment he would finally lay eyes on her again.
As much as Zheng Liang longed to rush to her side, he couldn't disregard his duties as the Crown Prince responsible for the nation's welfare. With the country engulfed in turmoil, he couldn't simply prioritize his married life and find happiness while chaos reigned around them.
After tirelessly working like a maniac for the past two months, things had finally begun to improve, allowing him the opportunity to return to his chamber. Before entering, he made sure to take a bath, wanting to present himself as neat and clean in front of Yang Ning.
