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 was surprised to find that Xiao Qi was waiting for her outside the door. The man asked her to have their breakfast with him outside instead of staying at the inn. Thinking that perhaps Xiao Qi wanted to try eating something different, Yu Feng quickly agreed.

The two walked to a tavern and sit down. Once the waiter left with their order, Yu Feng looked up and saw that Xiao Qi was looking at a house.

It did not take her too long to guess who was the owner of the house.

These days, Yu Feng had heard that Xiao Qi wanted to meet the General's wife and hope that she can help to send an urgent message to the General. She did not know about the progress, but seeing that Xiao Qi was still here instead of the army camp, Yu Feng guessed that he had not made a lot of progress.
