As the best monitoring system in the Temporal Bureau, L1 found it relatively easy to modify the storylines of small worlds. While altering the storyline in world S20070501, involving Ye Fan, L1 only intervened minimally. He didn’t interfere with the protagonist's main storyline but instead separated Ye Fan’s life from the protagonist’s.

Originally, in the established storyline of the small world, Ye Fan’s life and the protagonist’s life intersected like two wavering lines. Before high school, Ye Fan had no interactions with the protagonist, and even during their three years in high school, their interactions were minimal. They weren’t friends; they were merely schoolmates.

So, L1 simply modified the part where Ye Fan and the protagonist enrolled in the same school, allowing Ye Fan to be accepted into a top high school in a neighboring province, ranked first city-wide in the entrance exam.

By doing this, Ye Fan’s entire high school life no longer intersected with the protagonist’s, and the once-intersecting lines became parallel.

After that, L1 also set up a “win-by-default” program for the protagonist Cheng Fei before his college entrance exam results came out. In the original storyline, Ye Fan’s accidental death before the exam allowed Cheng Fei to become the top scorer in the province by default. After L1’s modification, the story shifted so that the original top scorer was too overwhelmed by the pressure of the exam atmosphere and opted out, leaving Cheng Fei to take the spot and still achieve the top score.

As for the student who gave up on the exam? Naturally, it was L1.

The storyline in world S20070501 wasn’t too complex, with only one main character, so it didn’t take L1 long to successfully modify the world’s ending.

The protagonist Cheng Fei won easily and went on to lead a successful life, marking the conclusion of the small world’s storyline.

Lastly, L1 checked in on Ye Fan. By now, Ye Fan had graduated from graduate school and had a girlfriend—a lively and pretty girl.

On a campus path bathed in the golden hues of twilight, the girl swayed while holding Ye Fan’s hand, “Please? I really like cats, and I’m not asking to buy one from a pet store. That stray cat is Little Huang’s baby! We’re already so close to Little Huang, she won’t mind if we take her baby home, right?”

“And raising a cat isn’t that much trouble! If you don’t want to clean up, I’ll take care of everything! Is that okay?”

She tugged on Ye Fan’s arm, playfully begging.

Ye Fan stood still for a long while before a helpless smile crept across his face.

He nodded. “Alright, let’s take it home.”

“Yay!”@@novelbin@@

Even from a distance, L1 could hear the girl’s excited laughter.

L1’s lips unconsciously curved into a smile.

Afterward, he left world S20070501 without hesitation, pressing "confirm" on his system panel.

For the first time, no points were awarded on L1’s system panel. Instead, it displayed a message: “500 points deducted from L1.”

L1 didn’t mind. The next moment, he restarted the timeline of world A20231007.

But unlike world S20070501, world A20231007 was a more complex world with multiple intertwined storylines. Modifying this world’s plot would require far more time and energy.

This time, L1 didn’t enter the small world directly. Instead, he monitored the world from a system’s perspective, closely watching the trajectories of various storylines and intervening when necessary.

From the moment he entered the world, L1 didn’t stop working.

Huo Yan’s downfall, being forced out of the entertainment industry and hated by everyone, stemmed from his love for Su Rui. His trust in her led to him being framed by her and He Shi.

So, L1 simply removed Huo Yan’s feelings for Su Rui.

Huo Ze’s team faced dissolution because it had too many unstable elements.

So, L1 prevented those players from joining Huo Ze’s team in the first place.

The conflict between Father Huo and Mother Huo, leading to their eventual divorce, was related to Father Huo’s estranged cousin.

This issue was easy to resolve. Since the cousin’s return caused their relationship to break down, L1 simply ensured she never came back.

As for Huo Jing’s cargo shipment that was lost at sea, that was even simpler.

As a monitoring system, L1 knew the safest sea routes, so he quietly altered the ship’s course.

And with Qin Yao, the solution was straightforward too.

By exposing the scandals of Yu Bai and the variety show guests ahead of time, the situation could be resolved perfectly.
