Leaving her small laboratory, Vill-V immediately appeared in front of Chang Yuan.
"What's the matter? Why is it suddenly a life-or-death issue? Did something go wrong with the MANTIS surgery?"
Thinking that Chang Yuan was facing a serious problem, Vill-V wasted no time and grabbed his hand, ready to take him to the lab for a check-up.
"No, it's about... relationship issues. I, uh, cough, I have a friend, and the situation is like this..."
Chang Yuan replaced himself with "a friend" and Elysia with "another girl," then proceeded to explain the situation to Vill-V.
The more Vill-V listened, the more she felt that Chang Yuan's "friend" was actually himself.
No, she didn't just feel it—she was certain that Chang Yuan was talking about himself.
"So, why are you coming to me? I've never been in a relationship, and I don't plan to be."
When it came to relationship troubles, Vill-V couldn't offer much useful advice.
After all, she had no personal experience in the matter, so how could she possibly help?
"Big V Teacher, please, I beg you. Read some dating manual and teach me how to fix this."
"Why don't you just read it yourself?"
Seeing Chang Yuan almost on his knees, Vill-V sighed and rubbed her forehead.
If you know it's useful, why don't you read it yourself instead of asking me?
"I don't understand it. I'm not good at studying. Only a genius like you can give useful advice."
Since he was asking for help, Chang Yuan naturally lowered his stance and showered Vill-V with compliments, each one hitting the mark.
Hearing her friend's flattery gave Vill-V a sense of accomplishment.
After all, the highest achievement among friends is when they sincerely praise you.
Of course, sarcastic remarks don't count.
"Alright, alright. Sit here for a while. I'll go take a look at those books."
After nodding in agreement, Vill-V immediately went to her small laboratory and turned on her supercomputer.
In just half an hour, Vill-V had memorized all the key points about romance.
At this point, if she wanted to, Vill-V could easily become a legendary player in the dating game.
Returning to the main room, Vill-V saw Chang Yuan pacing back and forth.
When he saw Vill-V come out, Chang Yuan looked like he had found his savior.
He rushed forward excitedly, "Big V Teacher, did you figure it out?"
"I did, and it's surprisingly simple."
Vill-V, who had somehow produced a pair of glasses, adjusted them and smiled.
Then, with her left hand resting on her right elbow, she pointed at Chang Yuan and said, "The solution is actually very simple. If you believe the feelings between you two are strong enough, then the guy just needs to sincerely apologize to the girl and admit his mistakes. The chance of her forgiving you is as high as 99%."
"..."
Hearing that the solution was so simple, Chang Yuan fell silent.
But Vill-V, thinking he was too proud to apologize, patted his shoulder in frustration. "You, is your friend's love more important or his pride?"
"That's... not the issue. Never mind, thank you, Big V Teacher."
From Vill-V's words, Chang Yuan realized that she had definitely figured out he was talking about himself.
Clearly, the "I have a friend" excuse only works on fools. Trying to fool a genius like Vill-V was impossible.
If he had known it was this simple, he wouldn't have come to Vill-V, and his embarrassing secret wouldn't have been exposed to more people.
After bidding farewell to Vill-V, Chang Yuan immediately went to find Elysia.
And just as he left, a pink figure also approached Vill-V.
She asked almost the same questions as Chang Yuan, also using "a friend" as a cover.
But more importantly, Elysia asked Vill-V if her overreaction of hanging up the phone in anger was too much, and whether her "friend" should apologize to the guy.
"..." Are your "friends" the same person?
Vill-V, with her high emotional intelligence, didn't voice her thoughts.
Silently raising her eyes, Vill-V looked at Elysia.
"Actually, neither of you is wrong. From the girl's perspective, the guy's behavior was indeed infuriating, so losing control and hanging up in anger is understandable.
Of course, the guy also made a mistake, as that kind of situation is always a bit inappropriate, even if the third party didn't mean anything by it.
So, my suggestion is that you—your friend—should apologize to the other person."
"Got it. I'll go tell my friend right away."
After saying goodbye, Elysia eagerly went to find Chang Yuan.
Watching her leave, Vill-V's lips curled into a slight smile.
She immediately returned to her small laboratory, opened her computer, and launched a certain program.
In an instant, a surveillance feed covering the entire Fire Moth appeared.
Then, grabbing a soda from the fridge, Vill-V watched the screen as two figures searched for each other.
"Not bad. Once again, I've saved a couple. Tsk tsk, when the Honkai is over, I must be invited to their wedding."
While sipping her soda, Vill-V eagerly awaited their reunion.
As if guided by fate, the two soon met at a crossroads.
"Elysia/Yuan!"
"You go first." x2
"Never mind, I'll go first." x2
"Uh." x2
Seeing each other repeat the same words, both fell into silence.
Finally, Elysia spoke first.
"I'll go first."
Looking at Chang Yuan, Elysia spoke in a voice that seemed kissed by an angel. "Yuan, I was wrong to get angry over nothing. I shouldn't have been mad at you for something you didn't mean to do. I'm sorry."
"..."
Hearing Elysia apologize to him, Chang Yuan was momentarily speechless.
In his past life, it was rare for a girl to apologize to her boyfriend in a relationship.
But now, Elysia had done just that. This was why she was truly perfect.
"I should be the one apologizing. What I did was wrong. I should have thought of your suggestion earlier. I'm sorry."
As Chang Yuan finished speaking, both fell into silence again.
Pfft!
"Hahaha, Yuan, you look so awkward when you apologize."
"Not at all. Besides, your apology wasn't much better either."
With Elysia's laughter breaking the tension, the atmosphere between them instantly became warm and friendly.
