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 a few days, Yu Feng went to find Nanny Guan and the others.

The moment she showed up, both Nanny Guan and Chef Dong stared at her with teary eyes. Both of them had watched Yu Feng while she was still a little girl. Hearing that Yu Feng had grown without her parents by her side made them sad.

Years ago, Yu Feng was still the pampered princess of the Yu family.

Who would have guessed that she would have to live under harsh conditions after the family fall?

Fortunately, Yu Feng had grown up so well and had turned into a beautiful young lady.

Yu Feng sat down beside Nanny Guan as she exchanged a few polite words with everyone. Hearing that everyone has been living comfortably in General Li Mu's residence these past few days made her relieved.

Seeing that Chu Yi and a few servants walked in with a tray of refreshments, Yu Feng quickly invited her guests to help themselves.
