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 having breakfast together, the two of them left the residence and headed to the market. Yu Feng was especially busy as she wanted to settle with her work before she could return to Capital City.

Although the Prince had told her that she could take things slowly, Yu Feng did not dare to delay her return. After all, this time, it was the Emperor who had summoned her back.

Yu Feng was determined to meet those people she had to meet and made a few arrangements so that Lu Zheng Yang and the others would be able to live well in Yuncheng while she was not around.

The atmosphere in the Yuncheng Market was especially lively. Because it was closer to the sea, the salty air wafted over with the breeze. The visitors walked around the market and stopped to buy whatever they need. Once in a while, the vendor's loud voice could be heard as they were promoting their goods.
