Yu Feng was a street thief with a reputation as 'the thief who has never gotten caught'. Until that one day...

Her capture threatened her to work for him. Her task? To carry messages and deliver them to each receiver—she became a runner.

The seventh prince, Prince Yi was fighting against time as they are trying to find evidence of the enemy trying to assassinate the Emperor. However, recently most of his messenger never reached their destination and this has caused them a huge loss. This was why he needed someone who knew the Capital City's streets and shortcuts to help him. 

When Prince Yi found out his runner's identity, he was delighted! But once Yu Feng found out the identity of the man she was working for, she tried to escape.

“Yu Feng, you dare to run away from me. This Prince had caught you once. Believe me when I say that I will catch you again.”

The Story of Yu Feng

Sensing the danger, this was the only word she could think of at a time like this.

Turning around, Yu Feng started to run and made her escape. She had seen the weapon in the soldiers' hand and with the way they were staring at her. Yu Feng knew that if she stayed around, the men will not hesitate to kill her.

Their laughter reverberated in the forest. Even from a distance away, the soldiers could see the fear in Yu Feng's face. This was what makes them excited.

The two soldiers exchanged a glance. Both understood each other's sick intention and the smile on their face widened.

There was nothing more fun than playing around with their prey before they swung their sword to kill it. Just at the thought of it made their heart pumped.

Yu Feng turned around to see that the two men were still at their place. It might seem as if they were letting her go, but Yu Feng knew that it was not the case.

Run!
