Episode 12 recap: Yingying treated her master's illness.

Jiang Changqing, who returned to the room, couldn't dare to look at Yingying. It turned out that his strange illness had recurred. Seeing this, Yingying hurriedly treated her master's illness. The reason her master treated her so well was because she could cure his illness. However, this time, a simple physical contact did not alleviate the symptoms. Yingying noticed the mark on her master's back and seemed to have figured something out. They both started searching through books.

It turned out that he had the Heartless Curse, which prevented him from being affectionate with others or developing romantic feelings, otherwise, he would fall ill. And Yingying happened to be able to cure his illness. This intrigued both of them. As they were engrossed in reading the records in the books, the caretaker suddenly barged in, took away the books, and set them on fire. This made Yingying furious, and without hesitation, she started fighting the caretaker.

Neither of them would back down. Yingying fought fiercely against the fox demon but couldn't retrieve the books. Both of them were struck by heavenly thunder, and the fox demon took the opportunity to escape. In the end, they only saw a small footprint left by the books. So they speculated that the master had been cursed by the fox demon with the Heartless Curse, and the only thing that could lift the curse was Yingying's tears. However, no matter what Yingying tried, she couldn't shed a single tear.

It was ironic that both onions made the master shed tears uncontrollably, but no matter what Yingying did, she couldn't shed a single tear.
