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

On Xiao Qi's stomach area, there was a big wound.

The wound was a little wide and deep. The moment the bandage was removed, Xiao Qi's face crumpled as he tried to bear with the pain. His lips were pursed as he gritted his teeth hard and the bead of sweats appeared on his forehead.

Yu Feng looked at the injury and thought that it looked very scary. It was a little red and swelling. At this time, there was a sign that this injury was infected.

As her tears streamed down her face, Yu Feng held on to Xiao Qi's hand tightly. It was unknown whether Yu Feng wanted to give him her strength or whether it was her who needed his strength after seeing the injury.

The Physician noticed that the Prince seemed to be holding hands with this unknown gentleman, but he merely pursed his lips and worked to change the dressing with full concentration.

Seeing the yellowish spot at a certain spot of his injury, the Physician became tensed.
