"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.

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.

~SPLASH~
Yang Ning closed her eyes and took a deep breath before jumping into the lake. The lake water was partially green and looked deep.
She was scared and nervous at first but upon remembering the change it can bring in her life, she did not hesitate for a moment and jumped into the cold water Lake anyway.
A few moments passed by and her body slowly started to sink into the deep water.
Since she was sure that she wanted to die, she held her breath and tried her best to not move around as she wanted to drown and die as soon as possible.
She opened her eyes under the water and couldn't see anything. The fear of death started to settle in her heart when she could not see anything under the water and it was getting difficult for her to hold onto her breath as well.
'AM I GOING TO DIE FOR REAL?'
