On New Year's Eve, every household was deep in the mood for the New Year. Wherever they were, they would set aside serious matters and enjoy the once-per-year feeling of ushering in the new year.
Ye Lingchen even gave Miyako a rare day-off, much to her surprise.
Boom!
Bang!
That was the iconic sound of the New Year.
Just hearing the sound of firecrackers sparked joy in every household.
From the first bang onward, crackling sounds came non-stop and continued to ring incessantly in the wee morning. There were plenty of people who were roused up from their slumber, but in the face of the upcoming Lunar New Year, many people were more than happy to wake up from their dreams. They opened their eyes early in the morning and looked at a new world, a new year, and a new atmosphere.
