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.

First Night (II)
*Ahem* Zheng Liang coughed and cleared his throat before walking towards their bed.
He hesitantly sat at the edge of the bed while trying to peek at Yang Ning's face, which was completely hidden under the veil.
He looked at her sitting on the bed while waiting for him and felt a strange feeling blooming inside him.
Before he came to the chamber, everyone was teasing him and telling him what to do when he saw Yang Ning.
However, now when he is seeing her, his mind turns blank, and didn't know how to react in front of her.
He is the Crown Prince of the Zheng Empire. How can he become a coward in front of a woman?
It's not like he is seeing her in his chamber for the first time. Then what is this strange exciting feeling that was making him look at her in a daze, admiring her in the red wedding dress?
