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

"Yu Feng," Yan Ying's voice trembled as she spoke. "You... Are you angry with me? Did you blame me?"

It would be a lie to say that she was not angry. It would be a lie to say that she did not blame her mother.

Her mother had chosen to leave when the Yu family was facing a hard time. She left her without looking back and let her leave without a mother while she had become a mother to another girl. She has been married to her father for years. Yu Feng knew that her father had never wronged her mother. However, at the first sight of the crisis, her mother had left. It was as if years of her marriage to her father did not matter at all.

What made her mad at this time was that her mother was married to the family that was related to the downfall of her family. Those people were the people who had killed her family! They were the reason why she had become an orphan!

"Yu Feng, do you think I wanted to leave you?"

Everything was Laughable
