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

Everyone who was going to attend the summer hunt had gathered at a plaza in front of the palace's main entrance as they were going to set off together with the Emperor.

Xu Yue Ru looked out of the carriage and saw that a lot of carriages were already lined up. Her eyes swept around the area as if looking for something. However, she could not find what she was looking for.

"Yue Ru, what are you doing?" Yan Ying asked when she saw her daughter peeking out of the carriage again. After they had arrived at the plaza, Yan Ying had noticed that her daughter was acting strangely.

The girl quickly turned around and smiled. "Mother, there are a lot of people participating this summer hunt as well."

Yan Ying laughed. This was not the first time that they were going to attend the hunt with the Emperor. However, this daughter had acted as if this was the first time she was attending a hunt.

"Mother, do you think we will be able to see the Seventh Prince?"
