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.

Gifts (II)
"How come only the expensive gifts are missing from the list?" Yu Ling's voice turned cold when she confronted Chang Ah.
Even though Chang Ah is the Mistress of the Household, she is not working at the Yang Household as her servant.
She is here to serve Yang Ning and her loyalty goes to her only. Even if Chang Ah is the head of the Household after Yang Luoyang, she has all right to confront Chang Ah about the missing gifts that were mentioned in the list of dowry gifts for the Royal wedding.
Those gifts belong to Yang Ning after all.
The room was engulfed in an uncomfortable quietness after Yu Ling asked the question to Chang Ah with stern expression on her face.
Yang Ning was surprised by the way Yu Ling faced Chang Ah about the missing gifts. She can see why His Majesty has kept her by his side for the longest and why Zheng Liang treats her differently than the other court ladies.
