I woke up as the Villainous Empress
Chapter 50

50 Lost Memories!

After Gu Lan left the chamber, Zheng Liang let out a sigh of relief and proceeded to open the letter that had come from the Yang Household.

However, as soon as he opened the letter, his eyes widened in shock and bafflement. His mouth parted in stillness as he was at loss for words.

“What....What is this?” He exclaimed in disbelief to see the handwriting that was hardly readable and was one of the hideous and sloppiest writings he has ever seen.

The letter paper has been covered in black ink drops here and there as if the person is using the pen and ink for the first time.

Yang Ning is the eldest daughter of the Yang Household and should have received the basic education that all the noble ladies of the Zheng Empire get from a young age.

Calligraphy is one of the arts that has been taught at a young age to all the nobles and aristocrats, along with the ladies.

It is understandable if she is writing a letter to someone for the first time but there is no way that someone can write in such an unorganized manner that it is barely readable even after receiving the training.

He cleared his throat and tried to avoid the messy handwriting and focus on the contents of the letter.

[Greetings to His Highness!

.....

Thank you for saving me the other day. Thanks to you, I am still alive and breathing. Since I am still alive, I believe it is only polite to express my thanks and gratitude to you for saving me the other day.

In that regard, I would like to invite you for a cup of tea. Along with my gratitude towards you, there is an important matter that I need to discuss with you. I hope you can accept my request to have a cup of tea with me.

One more thing, rather than meeting at the Yang Household or the Royal Palace, I would prefer if we could meet somewhere outside.

I will be waiting for your message.

Thank you.

Regards, Yang Ning! *Smiley emoji inserted*]

Zheng Liang was speechless when he read the contents of the letter. Still alive and breathing? Also, what were the strange symbols at the end of the letter?

Why does it sound like she is making a sarcastic remark for him saving her the other day?

Not only her way of thanking him was kinda peculiar but her request to have a cup of tea with her caught him off guard.

Does she want to talk about the thing that happened between them the other day? He wondered.

He pursed his lips and unknowingly, touched them upon remembering the day when he saved her using the technique that he learned while growing up.

Who would have thought that he would be having his first kiss in such a strange way? That too before his marriage.

” Important matter? Is this the important matter that she wants to discuss with me?” He pursed his lips, feeling embarrassed that she is the one who suggested for them to meet and talk about it.

As a man, he should be the one to bring this topic first. How can he let her talk about this matter first?

Even if there are many things to discuss between them and he is still considering what to do with this marriage alliance between the two families, it would be impolite to let a lady talk about such embarrassing matters first.

“Ah! I should also send her a letter in response. Where are my pen and paper?” Zheng Liang put away Yang Ning’s letter carefully and proceeded to look for a pen and paper to write a letter in response to her letter.

Yang Household.

Yang Ning was sitting on a chair in front of the Yang Household and was relaxing.

She took a sip of her tea while watching the evening sky and sighed in pleasure, ” Now I finally feel alive. This place is so much better than that gloomy chamber.”

Since the Yang Household is a large property, there is much more than just the chambers for all the members of the household and the servants.

Yang Ning’s chamber is on the back side of the Yang Household which excludes gloomy and suffocating vibes.

However, contrasting to that, there is an open and empty space outside the main chamber of Chang Ah and Yang Luoyang, where there are persimmon trees to provide shade.

To make this area more beautiful, Chang Ah has arranged two chairs and a small circular table under the shade of the tree so that she can enjoy her evening tea and snacks while looking at the colorful evening sky.

Generally, Yang Ning never steps out of her chamber or goes to other parts of the property, but after being cooped up in her chamber for the past three days, she was feeling suffocated and gloomy.

That’s why she decided to come out and have some tea while looking at the beautiful sky when the sun is setting.

Xiaowei, who was getting restless, looked around and said worriedly, ” Milady, Madam would be coming here anytime soon to have her evening tea.” She said, hinting toward Chang Ah.

” We should leave this place before she comes here. It would be problematic if someone sees us using this place.”

Yang Ning glanced at anxious Xiaowei and waved hands at her nonchalantly, ” Ssh! Don’t be a spoiled sport.”

” What are you scared of? It’s not like she is the one who owns this property. If she is the Mistress of Yang Household, I am the eldest daughter of this household.”

” I will also see who dares to say anything to me while sitting here.” Yang Ning said, stating her position to Xiaowei clearly.

After she fell into the lake, she did not go back to her world. However, rather she got the most precious thing because of it.

Yang Ning’s memories!!

When she was sinking deep into the lake, she felt a sharp headache that paralyzed her body under the water and made it impossible for her to come up to the shores.

However, when she woke up in her chamber, she felt the same headache again, and slowly the memories of Yang Ning started to seep into her head.

Suddenly, all the strange and unfamiliar things started to seem familiar to her. She was glad that Yang Ning’s memories finally found her.

Because without the memories, it was so difficult to distinguish between a friend and a foe. She has read the novel but the main story is focused on the story after a year when Yang Ning was already married to Zheng Liang and was the Empress of the Empire.

It was so difficult to live as Yang Ning without her memories as she could not do anything correctly and had to rely on Xiaowei for everything. But not anymore.

Because now she has Yang Ning’s memories which will help her to deal with the cunning people of this world until she goes back to her world.

She might not want to live in this world but what can she do when there is no way for her to go back to her world?

She cannot possibly spend her days doing nothing and letting herself be humiliated by her so-called stepmother of hers and her irresponsible father.

If she cannot go back to her world, she will fight her way to live happily in this world and change her fate, until she replaces a way to go back.

She will do anything to survive in this world, even if she has to tamper with the ending of this novel to save her neck from the sharp sword of the Crown Prince.

SURVIVING IN THIS WORLD IS HER ULTIMATE PRIORITY!
