Jacob, who was still a little disheveled, said impatiently from inside, “Why are you knocking? I want to rest even if you don’t want to sleep!”
Elaine said impatiently, “Just open the door when I ask you to do so. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Hurry up and open the door!”
After that, Elaine began knocking on the door vigorously again.
Jacob had no choice but to open the door. He glanced at her and said in annoyance, “Hurry up if you have anything to say.”
Elaine looked at Jacob and frowned when she saw that he was only wearing a pair of briefs. She then said, “Put on your pants quickly and drive me out to buy some firecrackers. I want to celebrate by setting off some firecrackers!”
“Firecrackers?” Jacob muttered in dissatisfaction, “It’s not the New Year so why do you want to set off firecrackers?!”
Elaine blurted out, “Hannah is done for! This kind of great joyous event is celebrated by the whole world, so why can’t I set off firecrackers to celebrate?”
Jacob waved his hand impatiently and said, “You can stop dreaming! It’s even illegal to set off firecrackers in the urban area during the New Year and you want to do it now?”
Elaine said angrily, “I just want to set off firecrackers! Don’t talk so much nonsense and drive me out to look for it so I can see where I can buy it!”
Jacob snorted and said, “You can set off firecrackers if you want, but don’t blame me for not reminding you if you’re detained at the time.”
When Elaine heard about being detained, she was startled and panicked in fear.
