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.

All I see, all I crave is you.
When Yang Ning suddenly confessed that she had sneaked out of the royal residence in Xinling City without informing anyone, Zheng Liang was taken aback. He wasn't expecting that she would suddenly reveal everything to him.
Along with sneaking out of the royal residence, she also told him about how she lied to him about being in her chamber and sleeping all day because she was feeling unwell due to the long-exhausting journey. She also revealed her venture to the local market with Xiaowei and explored the city and market without any guards accompanying her.
Back then, she didn't realize the danger of leaving the royal place without guards. But after seeing the unexpected attack on their way back to the capital city, she understood why what she did was seen as reckless and extremely dangerous.
