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

In the morning, Yu Feng left Orange in the inn and decided to go out and look around the town. Since she had told the others that she was going to Daqi to establish a connection for their business, she might as well do what she had said.

As she walked out of the inn, Yu Feng sensed someone walking behind her. After walking for a certain distance, that person was still around. Yu Feng walked into a smaller path and turned around suddenly.

Her eyes widened when she saw the man in a bamboo hat with half of his face covered. She was quick enough to recognize him and her hand around her dagger loosened.

"It takes you too long to notice," Qin Zhi Hao spoke. There was a hint of displeasure in his tone.

Yu Feng quickly recovered. "No. I have noticed your presence since the moment I stepped out of the inn. It's just that, I did not know who you are."
