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.

Tea Party (VII)
After receiving the message from the maid, Yang Ning excused herself from the party and followed the maid who reported to her about the incident. She wanted to see what was going on outside.
Seeing the worried expression on Yang Ning's face, Xiaowei, also followed her. She understood that it must be something important for Yang Ning to leave in the middle of the party. As her personal maid, Xiaowei felt the responsibility to follow her everywhere and prevent any danger from harming her lady.
Before leaving, Xiaowei didn't forget to instruct the servants to serve the guests well and keep them entertained during Yang Ning's absence. They had arranged this tea party with much effort, and they could not let a small matter ruin their preparations.
