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

He merely pushed his robe a little bit so that Yu Feng could see the injury on his shoulder. Then, he sat up quietly and did not dare to move. Qin Zhi Hao was worried that Yu Feng would notice the injury around his stomach.

As Yu Feng studied the injury around his shoulder, Qin Zhi Hao continued to watch her expression.

Her lips were pursed tightly as is hiding her displeasure upon seeing his injury.

Suddenly, he was overcome with slight happiness, knowing that the girl cared very much about him. She was too brave, traveling hundreds of miles to see him. Wasn't this evidence enough.

A second later, a slight of displeasure appeared on his face when he recalled that a certain someone was being disobedient. He had clearly told her to stay in Daqi, but the girl had come to see him anyway.

At the thought of what might happen to her during her trip, Qin Zhi Hao became unhappy again. It seemed that he will need to punish someone for being disobedient.
