Moto Is Fast Asleep

Qian Zilai lost his job on the first day of his thirty-first year.

His life's equation always seemed to resolve to the most average result: work skills just above passing, enough material comforts to get by, and relationships kept at arm's length.

Then he stood on the African continent, and the moment he saw Luo Qiao, he felt something break. It was his heart.

In Qian Zilai's second year in Tanzania, the rainy season arrived as expected.

One night, he suddenly woke up. Luo Qiao was nestled against his neck, sleeping soundly, his breath making the hair tickle Qian Zilai's neck.

The curtains were open. Outside the window, a pair of bright, animal eyes stared back at him. It was a wild cheetah.

He held the cheetah's gaze for about five seconds, then Luo Qiao wrapped his arms around him, one arm marked by pale scars.

Outside, the wind and rain poured down, while Moti slept peacefully beside him.

Premise: Long live life
