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.

Mysterious Man.
Yang Luoyang sat in his office, his mind troubled by the unfolding situation. Not only had Zheng Xiang been appointed as the new Finance Inspector, but the previous Finance Inspector, Officer Zen, had also been arrested on charges of corruption and bribery.
As the Head Minister of the Finance Department, Yang Luoyang found himself in a difficult position. If Zen Lingyu decided to cooperate with the investigation and reveal his involvement in corruption and immoral activities, it would be challenging to escape the consequences. This time, the investigation was being conducted by none other than the Crown Prince himself. If his name were to be revealed, covering up the matter would become even more difficult.
Gritting his teeth, he turned to the man standing beside him and spoke in a low, irritated tone. "Have you completed the task I assigned to you? What is the status of Zen Lingyu? Have you dealt with him?" Anxiousness laced his voice as he awaited a response.
