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.

Girls-Talk time.
After Zheng Liang and Yang Ning returned to the palace after paying respect to Yang Ning's mother, both of them became engrossed in their work. While Zheng Liang was busy handling royal court political matters, Yang Ning was occupied with dealing with palace affairs.
She barely had any time to dwell on what happened at the tea party the other day, as if the incident with Chang Ah was not a big deal for her. She considered it unimportant, as she had more pressing matters to attend to than wasting her time thinking about unnecessary people.
"Your Highness, the dress that you ordered from the seamstress has been delivered to the palace, and I have stored it carefully in your closet in your chamber," Xiaowei informed as she served tea to Yang Ning.
