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

Her heartbeat gradually calm down the moment she heard his voice. Yu Feng looked up and saw that the person in front of her was no other than her husband.

Within her peripheral vision, Yu Feng saw a few figures flashed by followed by the sounds of the weapons clanking. She wanted to turn around and look. However, the back of her head was pressed until her face was buried in the Prince's chest.

"I want them alive." A thunderous, angry voice belonged to the Emperor was heard.

It was not until she could no longer hear the sound of the sword fighting that the prince finally let her go.

"There's another accomplice, a maidservant who went that way," Yu Feng spoke quickly as she pointed to a direction.

"You heard her. Go and catch that person for me," the Emperor spoke again.

A finger touched her chin and she was forced to look up to the Prince.
