"Xue'er, this is the birthday gift I'm giving you. You didn't tell me it was your birthday today, so I just casually weaved a grasshopper out of these straws. Do you like it?"
Ye Wudao walked over and handed the straw-woven grasshopper to Nangong Xue'er.
He chose this moment to give the gift because he had ulterior motives, mainly to disrupt the relationship between Du Tianrui and Nangong Xue'er. After all, he was acquainted with Nangong Xue'er since childhood.
It was clear to him that Du Tianrui was cunning and didn't truly like Nangong Xue'er, so he didn't want to see her regret falling into Du Tianrui's hands.
While his interference might not be useful, it was better than doing nothing. He needed to find an opportunity to warn Nangong Xue'er about Du Tianrui, to make her be cautious around him.
"Ah! It's a grasshopper."
