"I just don't get what women are thinking."

Leon grumbled, walking over to the living room sofa and sitting down.

The sound of water flowing from the bathroom indicated that Losweiser was likely showering as well.

This further confirmed Leon's suspicions.

If he didn't lose 100 grams tonight, he probably wouldn't be able to leave this room.

Leon took deep breaths over and over, trying to relax.

About ten minutes later, the bathroom door opened, and Losweiser emerged.

She was wearing a simple slip dress, the Dragon Mark on her chest subtly visible. Her wet silver hair cascaded over her shoulders, and faint steam rose from her slender calves.

Her skin was so smooth that water couldn't cling to it, instead tracing a path down her cheeks to her chin, finally dripping onto her delicate, straight collarbone.

Losweiser, barefoot, walked past Leon while drying her hair.

"Right on time. Oh, you showered too?"

Leon watched the trail of wet footprints she left on the floor, blinked, and said nothing.

Losweiser poured a glass of water and handed it to Leon.

"Drink some water first. I'll finish drying my hair."

If she asked him "How long have you been in this line of work, little brother?" next, it would be the ultimate killer move.

Leon silently picked up the water glass and took a gentle sip.

A moment later, Losweiser finished drying her hair and returned to the living room, standing before Leon with her hands on her hips.

"Alright, let's begin. Where do you want to do it? The living room, or... the balcony?"

Leon was taken aback. "The balcony... wouldn't that be inappropriate?"

Losweiser shrugged. "What's inappropriate about it? No one can see anyway."

Leon covered his face. "If you don't care about being embarrassed, then let's go to the balcony."

"Tch, what's embarrassing about it? Then the living room it is. It's all the same anyway."

Saying this, Losweiser walked around the coffee table between them and sat down beside Leon.

Leon let out a long sigh, then closed his eyes and leaned back on the sofa.

He actually wanted to punch himself again, so that when he opened his eyes, Losweiser would have already dealt with it herself.

However, after waiting for a while, Leon realized nothing had happened.

He heard Losweiser say softly from beside him, "What are you doing?"

Leon opened his eyes and sat up straight again. "Huh? I... didn't you want to do that thing..."

Losweiser let out a hum of laughter, looking at Leon playfully. "Oh, what thing?"

Leon swallowed awkwardly, momentarily speechless.

Then, Losweiser took out a thick set of test papers from under the coffee table.

"Saint Hiss Academy is very strict with its assessment of family members and provides corresponding compatibility tests. We need to get to know each other better in these few days before school starts, so we don't answer incorrectly and affect Noa's enrollment evaluation."

She glanced at Leon, tapping the cover of the test papers with her index finger, her face filled with a smug satisfaction as she admired Leon's bewildered and embarrassed expression.

"...Losweiser, you really are—"

This Dragon Queen deliberately made him misunderstand, just for this moment of social death!

Losweiser narrowed her eyes slightly and said in a tone laced with a hint of disdain and teasing, "Mr. Casmod, you seem quite unsatisfied~ But tonight isn't suitable. Perhaps another day."

Losweiser didn't tease Leon too much, as the immediate priority was to improve their compatibility.

Of course, not the kind of compatibility in bed; Saint Hiss Academy doesn't test that.

"Regarding the family assessment, the rules are simple."

Losweiser began to explain the assessment method to Leon.

"The academy will prepare two sets of answer sheets. The questions will all be related to each other's habits, personalities, experiences, and so on. One person will first answer the questions based on their own situation, and then the other person will fill out the answer sheet. Finally, we compare them. The higher the score, the more we understand each other."

Leon blinked and slumped onto the sofa, flipping through the various test papers in his hands.

"Sounds like a boring couple's compatibility game."

"I also find it boring because I have absolutely no interest in your life history, hobbies, or habits."

"Thanks, me neither."

Losweiser threw Leon a pen. "But family member compatibility is a very important part of the assessment. The academy uses it to judge whether a family is harmonious. To ensure Noa can successfully enroll, we must gain a deep understanding of each other in these few days."

Leon bit the end of the pen. "Judging a family's harmony through compatibility... isn't that a bit... hasty?"

Losweiser shrugged.

"The test questions prepared by the academy are not simple couple's quizzes as you described. Many of these questions involve professional psychological knowledge that can accurately analyze your potential personality flaws. The academy believes that only families who understand each other's flaws yet continue to live together are harmonious families."

Leon glanced at the test paper in his hand and asked, "Then, is 'What is your partner's favorite color?' also a psychology test question?"

"How can your brain not turn? Basic compatibility tests are also necessary!" Losweiser covered her face with her hand.

Leon nodded, remained silent for a moment, and then asked, "Then what is your favorite color?"

"Black."

Losweiser blurted it out, then immediately asked back, "And yours?"

"Silver."

As soon as they finished speaking, they both felt something was off.

They looked at each other simultaneously—

at their hair.

Black hair.

Silver hair.

The next second, in unison: "Coincidence."

And the next second, in unison: "Shit."

The unlucky couple both turned their heads away, automatically skipping the topic.

Leon flipped through a few more test papers and found that there were indeed some questions related to psychology and personality.

Psychology, Leon wasn't very good at.

Dragon psychology, that he understood even less.

He only knew what dragons felt when they were about to die—after all, he was very skilled at slaying dragons.

The couple studied for a while, and Losweiser started taking a blank answer sheet and writing something on another piece of paper.

A moment later, she handed the answer sheet to Leon and said, "Alright, try it first and see how many questions about me you can answer correctly."

Leon took the test paper and began to answer the questions.

"Question one, what is one sentence your partner often says?"

Leon wrote as soon as he picked up his pen, "Does that even need asking? Of course, it's 'You idiot'."

Losweiser silently put her forehead in her hand, "You idiot... you don't have to say it out loud!"

"Question two, has your partner ever been particularly disappointed in you about something?"

Leon frowned slightly, and as he wrote down the answer, he muttered, "Yes..."

"No," Losweiser suddenly said.

Leon was startled and looked sideways at her.

Losweiser lowered her eyelids and fiddled with the tip of her tail.

She knew Leon was looking at her, but she still didn't look up, only repeated in a low voice, "I... have never been disappointed in you about anything, Leon."

"Is it because... there's no need to be disappointed in me?"

Losweiser's tail-fiddling motion paused, then she shook her head, not answering directly, but saying, "This has nothing to do with the question, continue answering."

Leon's thoughts stirred, and he didn't press further.

For the next dozen questions, he didn't read the answers aloud; he just silently wrote them down.

After finishing, he handed the test paper to Losweiser.

Losweiser compared it with the answers she had just written.

"What's the score?" Leon asked.

"45."

Losweiser's expression was serious, "You didn't pass."

Leon lowered his head, rubbing the pencil between his fingers, and after a moment of silence, he quietly said, "Sorry."

"No need to apologize. Perhaps if I answered, my score would be even lower."

Saying that, she pushed another test paper and a blank sheet of paper to Leon, "Come on, try it. Write your answers on the blank paper."

Leon nodded, picked up the paper and pen, and began to write.

While Leon was answering, Losweiser carefully reread Leon's answer sheet.

She found that all the questions Leon answered correctly were related to her daily habits.

For example, her catchphrases, her dominant hand, how she placed her tail most comfortably, and so on.

The questions he got wrong were mostly like the "Have you ever been disappointed" one.

Those were questions that Leon would only understand if Losweiser said them out loud herself.

Otherwise, given their history and how they interacted in daily life, it would be impossible for him to answer them correctly.

Losweiser wasn't someone who liked to open up to people.

She had grown accustomed to keeping everything bottled up inside, processing it all on her own.

If she really couldn't take it anymore, she would probably just write to her older sister, Ischa, and chat for a while.

Losweiser let out a long sigh, shook her head, and withdrew her thoughts.

Just then, Leon pushed the blank answer sheet towards Losweiser.

Losweiser nodded, took it, and began answering the questions.

After finishing, she handed it back to Leon for comparison, just like before.

"How many?"

"58."

Losweiser spread her hands and smiled, "I still need to practice more."

Leon looked at the answer sheets spread across the coffee table, pondered for a moment, and said, "We haven't spent much time together, and our interactions haven't been normal, so it's unlikely we'll get very high scores in a short period."

"But there's no other way. For Noa, let's both try our best."

Whenever it involved her daughter, Losweiser was like this – becoming gentle, understanding, completely different from her usual proud and cold demeanor as the Silver Dragon Queen.

Leon knew very well that she loved her daughters deeply.

There was no doubt about that.

Before the next round of testing began, Leon couldn't help but ask, "Losweiser."

"Hmm?"

"That question about disappointment just now... was that your real answer?"

Losweiser turned her head to look at Leon, met his gaze, and replied with a firm and resolute tone, "It was."
