I returned to my hometown after winning the koi lottery.

Inspiration comes from life, and you also need to look up at the scenery outside the window!

Sister Xiaotao sat at the desk, looking out the window with empty eyes.

The winter sun lazily sprinkled on the windowsill, but failed to dispel the haze in her heart.

As a well-known novelist, she has been doing well since the Magic Continent series became popular on the Internet. The success of the Magic Trilogy has put her at the highlight of her life.

But now, as the trilogy has come to a successful conclusion, she has fallen into an unprecedented predicament - her inspiration has dried up, like a dried-up spring, and she can no longer produce a trace of creative inspiration.

She sighed softly and her eyes fell on Xiao Xiaotao who was sleeping not far away.

The child's peaceful sleeping face was like a stream of clear spring, flowing through her anxious heart and making her feel a little calmer.

She recalled that she had been in the slump of creation countless times, but she had never felt as powerless as this time.

The word "Jiang Lang's talent has run out" is the most appropriate way to describe her current state.

She picked up the notebook and stroked the paper with her fingertips, but her mind was blank. The stories and inspirations that she had once come up with had now disappeared without a trace.

The ancients said, "Life cannot be too perfect, otherwise it will make people lose their desires."

She murmured to herself, feeling helpless about the current situation.

This boring life seemed to have a end that could be seen at a glance. She suddenly felt that life was like a big dream, illusory and vague.

When Li Fugui got home from get off work, he immediately noticed that something was wrong with his wife.

He put down what he was holding, walked over to Sister Xiaotao, and asked gently, "Xiaotao, what's wrong? You don't seem to be in a good mood."

Sister Tao smiled bitterly and shook her head. "I can't write anymore. I feel like I've really run out of ideas. After finishing the Magic Trilogy, I can't find that passion and inspiration for writing anymore."

Li Fugui patted her shoulder gently and said comfortingly, "Maybe you can't write because you haven't had any new experiences. You can try reading novels written by others and find your own shortcomings. Maybe you can find new inspiration."

Sister Xiaotao was silent for a moment and felt that what Li Fugui said made sense.

I was indeed a little complacent after winning the award. I always felt that other people's works were not as good as mine, and I looked down on those so-called fabricated stories.

Now that I think about it, I was really too conceited. Not all works are inferior to mine. In this vast world of novels, I am sure I can find works that touch my heart.

Xiao Tao immediately turned on her computer and logged into the novel website. She filtered by high scores and number of readers, and soon found many popular novels recommended by readers.

One of the novels about a reborn female supporting character caught her interest. The introduction said that the character setting of this book was very novel. It did not have the common clichéd plots of reaching the peak of life after rebirth and pretending to be cool but getting slapped in the face. Instead, it focused on the daily life of ordinary people, full of family matters and trivial matters.

Sister Xiaotao couldn't wait to open the novel and start reading.

The opening is a memory, and the completely different perspectives of the heroine and the supporting actress make her eyes shine.

The story told by the supporting actress is that she and the heroine grew up together, supported each other, were inseparable, and had a deep relationship like sisters.

Every beautiful moment of their childhood was accompanied by the other person. The heroine liked flowers, so the female supporting character went all over the mountains and fields to pick flowers for her.

When the heroine is wronged, the supporting female character always stands up to defend her without hesitation and protects her unwaveringly.

Even though they grew up and separated, their hearts were always closely connected and they were good sisters for life.

However, the heroine's narration is like another world.

In the heroine's memory, the supporting female character has been very annoying since she was a child, and the children in the village were unwilling to play with her, so she pestered the honest herself.

The female supporting character not only eats her snacks every day, but also steals her things.

The flowers that the delivery girls gave her were all stolen from other people's yards. It was because of these flowers that the heroine was mistaken for a thief and almost left a trauma in her childhood.

After growing up, they each left the village. The female supporting character soon forgot about the female protagonist and only contacted her when she needed a gift money for marriage and childbirth.

Two completely different descriptions, like stories from two parallel worlds, yet they are so realistically intertwined.

Sister Xiaotao read with great interest and laughed out loud from time to time.

Li Fugui saw his wife's face bloom with a smile again, and curiously came over to ask: "What are you looking at? Why are you so happy?"

Sister Tao smiled, turned the computer screen towards him, and said, "The author of this novel has great writing skills. Although it's all about trivial family matters, it's very interesting. Look at the memories of the heroine and the supporting actress. They are completely different versions of each other. It's so funny."

Li Fugui also started watching, and the two of them discussed as they watched.

Sister Xiaotao saw the truest form of life from this novel. The trivialities and warmth, quarrels and reconciliations in those ordinary days were all vividly portrayed by the author with delicate brushstrokes.

She suddenly realized that her previous creations were too focused on fantasy and a grand worldview, and ignored the most simple emotions and stories in life.

After reading this novel, Sister Xiaotao's mood completely improved.

She no longer worried about the lack of inspiration, but was filled with new enthusiasm for life and creation.

She decided to go out of the house, experience every bit of life, and listen to the stories of people around her.

She believes that as long as one observes and experiences carefully, inspiration will take root and sprout in the soil of life like spring seeds.

Since then, Sister Xiaotao often takes her notebook with her when she goes out, to parks, vegetable markets, and cafes, observing people coming and going and recording their stories and expressions.

She discovered that there is material everywhere in life and everyone has their own unique experiences and emotions.

Those details that she once ignored have now become the source of her creation.

During an exchange activity with readers, Sister Xiaotao shared her experience.

She said: "As an author, we cannot be complacent but must be brave enough to accept new things and learn from others' strengths.

Life is the best teacher. As long as we feel it with our heart, we will never lack inspiration.

Just like the novel about the reborn female supporting character, it made me see the charm of ordinary life and helped me rediscover my passion for writing.

The readers in the audience applauded, they were moved by Sister Xiaotao's sincerity.

Sister Xiaotao also completed her own growth and transformation through this experience.

She knows that she still has a long way to go in her future creations, but as long as she has a love for life and persistence in creation, she will be able to write more excellent works and bring more touching and surprising things to readers.
