The Story of Yu Feng

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.” --- This story is written to participate in WPC 137: Catch Me If You Can --- Cover illustration: kirinlukis ---

Zhou Ming's Sad Past

Initially, Yu Feng was planning to rush back to Jing City after she had received the old madame's reply. However, Officer Zhou Ming's mother had invited her to stay and grab something for lunch at her place.

Yu Feng recalled the old madame's culinary skill and could not resist the temptation.

After counting the time, Yu Feng guessed that she should be able to arrive in Jing City before the gate close only if she hired a carriage. Although it might cost her a lot of money, at least, she would be able to enjoy Old Madame Zhou's cooking.

Anyway, the food has been cooked and only needed to be reheated. She did not have to wait for too long.

Yu Feng followed the old Madame to the dining area and ate her food happily. Seeing that the old lady was smiling amiably at her as she ate, Yu Feng's movement became awkward.

"Why did you stop? Just eat," Old Madame Zhou urged. "Go on and eat a little bit more."
