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.

Friend or Foe?
Fang Li's eyes widened when she realized that before the game she had drunk water from a water bottle that wasn't hers.
Generally, she does not drink water from a bottle that isn't hers before any competition. However, since it was given to her by one of her trusted team members and her roommate, she did not question the authenticity of the water.
How can she not trust her teammates? They're on the same team after all.
Now if she thinks about it, the water tasted a bit strange. It was slightly bitter and different from usual.
The difference in the taste of the water was almost negligible, which she ignored earlier. However, if she thinks about it now, it was strange indeed.
" Why? Did you remember something?" The coach asked to see her lost while thinking about something.
Fang Li ran her hand through her hair in restlessness and shook her head in denial, " It can't be. It must be someone else."
