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.

Secret Meeting (VIII)
Upon knowing the cruel consequences of canceling this marriage alliance, Yang Ning was left in distress.
If she decides to cancel the marriage alliance or not, the consequence will be her death.
However, after doing some calculations, she realized that going along with this marriage alliance would be much more beneficial than canceling it and being executed at the hands of the current Emperor.
Firstly, after marrying Zheng Liang, as Xiaowei said, she will get to leave the shitty Yang Household and will be free from the daily bickering and schemings of Chang Ah and Xiao Bai. More than that, she can leave the side of the controlling and manipulating, so-called father of hers.
Secondly, the main story of the novel starts after a year of their marriage, which means, she will have a year to turn around her fate and not make the mistakes that Yang Ning committed in the novel, by following Yang Luoyang's orders blindly.
