"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.

Chang Ah was desperate to reverse the tables and looked at the other ladies with pitiful, pleading eyes, moist with tears, and accused Yang Ning. "She is lying. She was the one who used to humiliate me and is now framing me. She even used to beat me and grab me by my hair if I didn't do as she said. Everyone in the capital knows how vicious this girl is."
"She is the vicious one, you all know that, right?" Chang Ah said to others, but everyone simply frowned at her embarrassing behavior. If they hadn't met Yang Ning, then they might have believed her words. However, after meeting her today and listening to the crude comments that Chang Ah made about Yang Ning, the ladies couldn't help but be doubtful of Chang Ah and her suspicious behavior.
Madam Guo and Liu didn't even glance at Chang Ah when she came to them to explain what Yang Ning said earlier and simply turned their heads away.
