I Transmigrated into a Novel as a Villain, and My System Refreshes Randomly - Chapter 20:

Chapter 20: Bone-Washing Pill Pro Max

With Gu Siqing and Su Wanying supporting him on either side, Qin Xiao went upstairs with slightly unsteady steps. The corridor’s soft lighting reflected the different expressions on their faces.

“I… I want to take a shower.” Qin Xiao’s voice carried a hint of fatigue, yet there was an undeniable firmness in it.

A flicker of concern flashed in Gu Siqing’s cool eyes. She asked, “Your injuries aren’t healed yet. Is it convenient?”

Su Wanying leaned closer, her charming gaze like silk. “Yes, Brother Qin Xiao, you’re injured. What if you get water on your wounds? Why don’t we sisters help you bathe?” Her breath was warm and fragrant.

Gu Siqing unusually agreed, saying, “That’s right, if we help, we can also take care of you a bit.” A faint blush crept onto her cheeks.

Qin Xiao felt his scalp tingle. These two women—one like ice, the other like fire—together were enough to take his life. He quickly waved his hands, sounding flustered. “No, no! I can do it myself! Don’t follow me!”

With that, he almost fled into the master bedroom’s bathroom, slamming the door shut and locking it. Leaning against the cool door, he let out a long breath.

Steam began to fill the bathroom. 

He walked to the large round bathtub and started filling it with water. The warm stream gurgled and soon filled more than half of the tub.

Qin Xiao murmured inwardly, “Yun Yiyi, take out the [Bone-Washing Pill].” 

He wanted to use this chance to completely rebuild the body that had been worn out by wine and women.

The next moment, a massive object emitting a faint medicinal fragrance appeared in front of him. Qin Xiao’s eye twitched. “Yun Yiyi, are you sure this is a pill? This is obviously a Pill Pro Max! Damn, if I eat something this big, won’t I just drop dead?”

[Please rest assured, Host.] Yun Yiyi’s soft and delicate voice sounded in his mind, carrying a trace of grievance. [The original owner’s body was severely depleted from indulgence, with an extremely poor foundation, and your current injuries are also quite serious. That’s why the system specially prepared an extra-large dose of the Bone-Washing Pill. The purpose is to fully restore your physique to the peak state before your transmigration, and perhaps… even surpass it!]

Qin Xiao’s expression eased. “Oh? From soul transmigration to body transformation? Now that’s more like it.”

Without further hesitation, he picked up the massive pill and began biting into it with difficulty. It melted instantly in his mouth, though it felt dry. He grabbed the fresh orange juice prepared nearby and took several gulps before forcing down a small piece.

Once the medicinal power entered his body, a warm current began to spread. Very quickly, that warmth turned into searing pain, as if countless steel needles were piercing his bones, muscles, and meridians.

“Ugh—!” He gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead as beads of sweat rolled down his face. Soon, his pores began seeping sticky, foul-smelling black filth that clouded the clear bathwater.

The waves of pain crashed against his nerves like a relentless tide. Even with his strong willpower, he couldn’t suppress a muffled groan. “Mm!”

Outside the bathroom door, Gu Siqing and Su Wanying, who had been listening intently, heard his voice and immediately turned pale.

“Qin Xiao!”

“Brother Qin Xiao, what happened to you?”

Both of them banged on the bathroom door in panic.

Qin Xiao, enduring the agony, shouted, “It’s nothing… I… I was just scrubbing hard… used a bit too much strength. Don’t come in!”

Gu Siqing and Su Wanying exchanged doubtful glances. Scrubbing could make such noises? Still, since he said so, they didn’t force their way in.

Time passed slowly. The sounds inside gradually faded. About half an hour later, Qin Xiao slowly opened his eyes and exhaled deeply.

He looked down at himself. His once pale skin, due to injury, was now as fair as jade, smooth and delicate as if reborn. His wounds had vanished without a trace, leaving not even a scar. More importantly, his body was brimming with unprecedented strength.

[Congratulations, Host. Bone-washing completed!] Yun Yiyi’s voice sounded again. [Your height has increased by 5 cm. You are now 186 cm tall. Your body functions have greatly improved, nearly matching your peak state before transmigration.]

Qin Xiao stood up and stretched, his joints cracking crisply. He walked to the mirror. The man reflected back stood tall and lean, with powerful muscle lines like a perfect Greek sculpture. His facial features were sharper, and the spoiled look of the original owner was gone, replaced by a mature and handsome charm.

“Still feels best using my own body.” Qin Xiao’s lips curved in satisfaction. The bone-washing was painful, but worth it.

He wrapped a towel around his waist and stepped out of the tub. However, with his newly transformed body still adjusting and the lingering soreness, his foot slipped. “Thud!” He fell hard to the floor. “Ow!”

Hearing the sound, Gu Siqing and Su Wanying could no longer hold back. They looked at each other, then rushed the bathroom door open.

“Qin Xiao!”

“Brother Qin Xiao!”

They froze at the sight of him—nearly naked, sitting awkwardly on the floor. Water droplets slid down his well-defined muscles, tracing over his firm abs before disappearing into the barely secured towel at his waist. His fair skin and sculpted physique radiated explosive strength, while his face was so handsome it made hearts race.

Gu Siqing’s cheeks turned crimson, her cool gaze flickering with panic as she avoided direct eye contact. Su Wanying’s breath caught, her charming eyes blazing as she stared at him openly, filled with both awe and desire.

Both women instinctively stepped forward to help him up. Their fingertips brushed against his warm, solid skin, sending a tremor through their hearts. Their gazes couldn’t help but drift to where the towel barely covered him, their minds wandering.

Qin Xiao, seeing their unusual expressions, felt his heart skip. Especially Su Wanying—her eyes seemed to gleam like a predator’s, ready to devour him whole.

“I… I’m fine, just slipped.” Feeling his chastity in peril, he quickly added, “I’m done washing. I’m a bit tired, so I’ll sleep first.”

Breaking free from their support, he dashed out of the bathroom, into the bedroom, slamming and locking the door behind him. Leaning against it, he patted his chest in lingering fear. These female leads were terrifying—like wolves and tigers. He’d have to be even more cautious from now on.

“Yun Yiyi, what’s the next plot?”

[According to the original plot, after Ye Chen is discharged, he will go to the largest antique market in the Imperial Capital, the ‘Treasure Pavilion,’ for a lucky find.]

Qin Xiao’s eyes lit up. “An antique market find, huh? Looks like I’ll have to intercept it.”

At the same time, in the VIP ward of the Imperial Capital First People’s Hospital, Ye Chen was half lying on the bed with several layers of bandages on his face, yet still exuding what he thought was ‘charm.’

He grinned at the young, gentle, and elegant female doctor in front of him, the smile almost stretching to the back of his head. “Doctor Song, when will my injuries heal? I’m afraid of pain, so you’ll have to be gentle with me.”

The doctor was none other than Song Zhixue, the medical genius of the Song family. She frowned slightly at his posturing, though her tone remained professionally calm. “Mr. Ye, your recovery is going well. Please rest and recuperate.”
