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

Yan Ying's gaze stayed on the lady with the veiled hat for a long time. She could not see the woman's face, but Yan Ying thought that the person seemed a little familiar. The woman gave her this feeling as if she had known her for a long time.

Meanwhile, Xu Yue Ru's eyes were set on the Prince the moment she stepped into the shop.

The first time she had encountered the prince at the palace, Xu Yue Ru was unable to forget this prince. Later, she had tried to learn everything she can about the prince to the point that she had become a little obsessed. Because of this, Xu Yue Ru was able to spot the prince from a distance away.

A while ago, she had seen the prince in the palace and was disappointed that she did not get to greet the prince. Now that she had seen him in this shop, Xu Yue Ru decided that this should be a good chance for her to make a good impression on the prince.

Her Heart Still Ached
