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.

Lustful Monster.
The following day, before heading to the royal court, Zheng Liang instructed Xiaowei to not disturb Yang Ning and let her sleep until she woke up naturally.
Their passionate encounter from the previous night, which was initially intended to be a brief moment of intimacy, extended late into the night until she finally drifted off to sleep in his arms. He couldn't help but feel a twinge of guilt for wearing her out, especially knowing she was already grappling with morning sickness and feeling lethargic and weak due to her pregnancy.
Before retiring for the night, Zheng Liang requested a warm towel from the maid and personally wiped Yang Ning's body with it. Although he could have asked the maid to assist with her cleaning and changing, he preferred to attend to her himself. After all, she was his wife, and he wanted to take care of her himself.
