Rebirth of Jinxuan

Renhe Pharmacy was brightly lit, and the air was filled with a faint aroma of medicine, which was completely out of place with the tense atmosphere outside the door.

More than two hundred Luo family disciples surrounded the pharmacy, each holding a weapon and exuding a murderous aura.

Lu Jinxuan stood at the entrance of the pharmacy, with Mo Chenfan, Zhang Yuxi, Ai Xi, Lu Yuhang, Qian Feng, and a group of servants and maids behind her.

Mr. Qian was settled in the backyard, where he anxiously peered out the window.

"What is the Luo family trying to do?" Lu Jinxuan asked coldly, her gaze sweeping over the Luo family members before finally settling on Luo Qiang and Luo Wu, who were at the head of the group.

Luo Qiang sneered, "Lu Jinxuan, hand over Luo Li, or I'll raze your Renhe Pharmacy to the ground today!"

Before Lu Jinxuan could speak, Zhang Yuxi jumped out, pointing at Luo Wu and shouting, "How dare you, Luo family! Luo Li harassed me! I haven't even settled the score with him yet! And now, you actually want to raze the pharmacy to the ground!"

Mo Chenfan was taken aback by these words and looked at Zhang Yuxi curiously: "Teasing? What's going on?"

Zhang Yuxi blushed and stammered, "It happened at Zuiyue Tower... He... He molested me!"

Mo Chenfan's eyes widened: "Indecent assault? What are the details? Tell me quickly!"

Zhang Yuxi was shocked and hurriedly covered Mo Chenfan's mouth: "Don't ask! In short, it was... molestation!" He secretly glanced at Lu Jinxuan, afraid that she would misunderstand.

Lu Jinxuan paid no attention to Zhang Yuxi's complaints. She recalled the story of Luo Li told by Qian Lao, and her opinion of Luo Li changed slightly.

Rory may not be an irredeemable villain; he is atoning for his sins in his own way.

“Mo Chenfan,” Lu Jinxuan said in a low voice, “I think the Luo family’s visit this time might have other hidden reasons.” Mo Chenfan nodded in agreement.

Just then, Luo Wu shouted, "Lu Jinxuan, have you thought this through? If you don't hand over Luo Li, don't blame us for being impolite!"

Lu Jinxuan's gaze sharpened, and she was about to speak when she suddenly saw a figure slowly approaching. The figure was slender and frail, appearing particularly lonely in the night. It was Rory.

Luo Li walked up to Luo Qiang and Luo Wu and said softly, "Stop it..."

Rory was pale, his lips were cracked, and he was so weak that he could barely stand.

A night breeze blew by, and she couldn't help but cough a few times, her body swaying even more violently.

Seeing this, Lu Jinxuan couldn't bear it and slammed her hand on the table: "Quickly bring them in! What kind of look is it to leave them out in this weather!"

Ai Xi immediately understood, removed the protective barrier at the entrance of Renhe Pharmacy, and instructed the two servants behind her, "Hurry up and help!" The servants did not dare to delay and rushed forward to support the swaying Luo Li, carefully carrying her into the pharmacy.

Upon seeing this, Luo Qiang and Luo Wu both looked rather grim.

Luo Qiang angrily said, "Luo Li! What are you doing? Don't forget who you are!" Luo Wu also chimed in with advice.

Rory simply shook his head weakly and said nothing.

Lu Jinxuan arranged for someone to place Luo Li on a bed in the back room of the pharmacy.

Old Qian had been watching the commotion outside. When he saw the lorry being carried in, he couldn't help but sigh deeply, his expression complex.

Rory was once his most prized disciple, but now he had fallen to this state, which filled him with mixed feelings.

He shook his head helplessly, but still stepped forward to carefully examine Rory's injuries.

"He just suffered a minor head injury and passed out, but he's fine," said Mr. Qian after checking on him, letting out a sigh of relief.

As he spoke, he skillfully took out ointment from the medicine box and treated Rory's wound.

Lu Jinxuan stood aside, quietly watching Qian Lao's actions, her mind filled with countless thoughts.

She recalled the grudges between Luo Li and the Qian family that Mr. Qian had told her before, and then thought about the actions of the Luo family members tonight. She vaguely felt that things were not as simple as they seemed on the surface.

Mo Chenfan walked to Lu Jinxuan's side and asked in a low voice, "Do you really think there's something else going on with the Luo family?" Lu Jinxuan nodded, her gaze falling on the unconscious Luo Li: "Perhaps, we've all misunderstood him."

Zhang Yuxi leaned closer and whispered, "A misunderstanding? He was..." Before he could finish, Mo Chenfan grabbed him, "Hey! You just said he molested you, what exactly happened? Tell me the details!"

Zhang Yuxi blushed and stammered, "Well..."

Mo Chenfan pressed on with a gossipy look, "Just what? Tell me already, don't keep me in suspense!" Zhang Yuxi blushed, her eyes darting around, "Well... he suddenly jumped down from the tree, tackled me to the ground, and then... then..."

"And then what happened?" Mo Chenfan asked eagerly, and Lu Jinxuan also looked over curiously.

"Then... he touched my hair, and... he kissed my forehead!" Zhang Yuxi finally said it, her voice so soft it was like a mosquito's hum.

Mo Chenfan was stunned, then burst into laughter: "That's it? I thought it was something earth-shattering! This isn't 'indecent assault,' it's clearly 'harassment'!"

Lu Jinxuan couldn't help but laugh, while Zhang Yuxi glared at Mo Chenfan with embarrassment and anger: "What do you know! What he did to me was indecent assault!"

Just then, Rory, who was lying on the bed, let out a soft moan and slowly opened his eyes.

He was stunned when he saw the crowd gathered around the bed, then struggled to get up: "What...what are you doing?"

"You're awake?" Old Qian asked with concern. "How are you feeling?"

Rory shook his head, his gaze falling on Zhang Yuxi, a hint of doubt in his eyes: "It's you? Why are you slandering me?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuxi was instantly enraged: "Slander? You still want to deny it? You touched my hair and kissed my forehead, isn't that a fact?"

Rory's expression changed, then she sneered, "Touch your hair, kiss your forehead? That's ridiculous! I just wanted to..." She paused, her gaze sweeping over everyone before finally settling on Lu Jinxuan, "I just wanted to remind him to watch out for what's above his head..." Rory suddenly stopped, looking around warily.

Rory's words came to an abrupt halt, and the atmosphere in the room instantly froze.

Just then, Wang Xiaoer stumbled in, his face pale and panting, shouting, "It's terrible! It's terrible! The Luo family... the Luo family has attacked! More than two hundred people have surrounded the pharmacy!"

"What?!" Mo Chenfan exclaimed in surprise, his expression changing drastically.

Old Qian remained unusually calm. He stroked his beard and said in a deep voice, "It seems the Luo family can't wait any longer." He turned to Lu Jinxuan and said, "Madam Lu, you take Qian Feng and Yu Hang and go first. Leave this to me."

Lu Jinxuan shook her head, her eyes resolute: "Mr. Qian, we'll face this together."

"Mom, I want to stay too!" Lu Yuhang clenched his fists, his small face full of determination.

Old Qian gave them a deep look, said nothing more, and turned to stride out. The others followed closely behind, with Zhang Yuxi supporting the still weak Luo Li.

The doors of Renhe Pharmacy were wide open, and outside was a dark mass of Luo family members wielding swords and knives.

They were all fierce-looking and their shouts were deafening, as if they wanted to devour the entire pharmacy.

Mr. Qian stood at the front, followed by Lu Jinxuan, Mo Chenfan, Zhang Yuxi, Lu Yuhang, Ai Xi, and Qian Feng.

Wang Xiaoer and the shop assistants and maids hid at the very back, trembling with fear.

From the Luo family crowd, a burly man with a face full of scars stepped forward. He held a giant axe, stared fiercely at Old Qian, and sneered, "Old man, if you know what's good for you, hand over the person, or I'll raze this lousy pharmacy of yours to the ground today!"

When Rory saw the person who came, his face turned pale instantly, and his lips trembled. He seemed to want to say something, but he didn't dare to speak.

He gripped Zhang Yuxi's sleeve tightly, his fingernails almost digging into his flesh.

“He…he is Luo Qiang.” Luo Li’s voice trembled, almost squeezed out from between his teeth.

She pointed fearfully to a lean old man behind Luo Si and added, "That's Luo Qiang, the first elder of the Luo family. And the short, fat one next to him is Luo Wu, the second elder of the Luo family."

Luo Si's gaze swept over everyone, finally landing on Luo Li, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

"Rory, come here." His tone carried an unquestionable air of authority.

Rory shook his head violently, hiding behind Zhang Yuxi and clutching his arm tightly as if it were a lifeline. "I won't go back! I won't go back!"

Luo Si's face darkened, and his tone turned icy. "Luo Li, don't be willful! This is not a place for you."

"I told you, I'm not going back!" Rory's voice was trembling with tears, but unusually firm.

Lu Jinxuan stepped forward, blocking Luo Li's path, and stared directly at Luo Si with no fear in her eyes.

"Commander Luo, Rory is an adult now, and he has the right to choose the life he wants. Isn't it going too far to force him like this?"

Luo Si sneered, "It's none of the business of the Luo family! Lu Jinxuan, I advise you not to meddle in other people's affairs."

“Commander Luo, you are mistaken,” Lu Jinxuan said calmly. “Luo Li is now one of my Renhe Pharmacy employees, so I naturally cannot ignore his affairs. Moreover,” she paused, a cold smile playing on her lips, “I, Lu Jinxuan, have never been afraid of anyone.”

Luo Si's face grew even darker. He stared intently at Lu Jinxuan, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

Luo Qiang and Luo Wu behind him were also eager to make their move, their weapons vibrating with a buzzing sound.

A tense atmosphere filled the air, as if a fierce conflict could erupt at any moment.

Luo Qiang stepped forward and shouted gruffly, "You brat, you've got quite the nerve! Who do you think you are? Daring to challenge us!"

Zhang Yuxi shielded Luo Li behind her, gave Luo Qiang a cold glance, and exuded a strong sense of oppression.

"Luo Qiang, you'd better watch your words. Some people are not to be trifled with." He said in a chilling tone, enunciating each word clearly.
