Chapter 69 Can you definitely understand this?

Gu Qili couldn't be bothered to stoop to his level, glancing at his bookshelf which was made of solid, brown wood that appeared heavy and magnificent, filled with books.

She took a fancy to a wine magazine on the top shelf, the kind that's suitable for beginners. It was probably untouched for a long time since it was placed so high up.

He had said before that she could read any of his books at will.

Gu Qili tried several times but couldn't reach it. With no other option, she turned back to look at Mu Shuoqian, biting her finger and giving him a pitiful look, begging.

Mu Shuoqian, who had been busy reviewing documents, somehow sensed her gaze. When he looked up, he saw her frowning and giving him puppy eyes.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally got up and walked over.

Just as Gu Qili was about to make room for him, his tall figure came close and sandwiched her between the bookshelf and his body just like a sandwich.
