One story I have read

末日乐园(After the doomsday)

This novel - a great work that has been with me for over five years - is a somewhat "unconventional" online fiction novel in the traditional context, written by a mysterious author, all those readers know about her is her gender and the fact that she is a part-time online writer. Although little is known about who she is, the text seems to tell all that is needed to understand a strange human being.
The novel is about the story of an unrelated girl who survives a sudden doomsday and stumbles into a small group of Neo-Humans who have evolutionary adaptations. The world of the modern-day, with which the reader is most familiar, is destroyed at the very beginning, leaving her to wander from parallel universe to parallel universe due to uncontrollable forces, like the little princes who lost his B-612. Everything is still about politics, religion, prejudices and obsessions, as the new worlds are filled with grotesque things, but the societies are still constructed by ex-humans. The story I have taken is from it, although it is only a snippet of the 5.8 million words that have been written and are still being updated daily. This fragment mentioned in the research reflection is a story of the story, from a small part of someone else's life that the girl has experienced through empathy.
A part of another world, a story that just touched me, was more than enough of a push to make me want to leave a mark; as a reader, I resonated with the grown-up girl and the author behind the words——who is growing in sync——of exploring gender constraints, centralised autocracy, and life contemplation. She shouts to every reader in the form of a narrative: don't get numbed with prejudice, don't lose the joy of life because of difficulties, and treasure your ability to love.
