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

After their meal, Qin Zhi Hao went with General Li Mu to his study. The General dismissed everyone before he walked to a corner and started to make some tea.

There was a long silence in the room. Qin Zhi Hao sat at the side watching the General brewing some tea. As the cup was placed in front of him, Qin Zhi Hao raised the cup slowly and took a sip. He then praised the tea as the taste lingered in his mouth.

"My wife had already told me everything about that girl." General Li Mu started. He watched his nephew's face for a long time and spoke, "You… Do you really like her?"

The corner of his lips tilted up slightly. "Uncle, I don't have any reason to use Yu Feng or play with someone's feelings. I genuinely like her."

General Li Mu was stunned. For a few seconds, he had thought that the person in front of him was not the aloof Prince Yi. This brat. When did he know about liking someone?
