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.

Tea Time III
Zheng Liang was baffled when the voices coming from the hallway sounded like Lady Yang Ning.
However, how can she be at the Dragon Pavilion? There is no reason for her to be at the palace when he is locked inside his chamber.
'Am I hallucinating?' He wondered if he was hearing things wrong and doubted himself for being too obsessed with her.
"Zheng Liang, come to your senses. You're the Crown Prince of the Empire. Are you going to lose your mind over a woman?" He even slapped himself lightly on the face to wake up from this reality which felt like a dream.
Just as he was wondering if something was wrong with him, he heard Yang Ning laughing loudly once again and heard her say, " Guard Gu Lan, thank you for your hospitality!"
" Even though His Highness cannot come and greet me, I am glad that you allowed me to stay here and have some tea. Can I come here again tomorrow as well, if you don't mind?" She asked carefully.
