Shut Up, Dragon! I Don't Want More Babies With You!

"During the period I was reviewing and preparing for the exams, I'm very grateful for Mom's encouragement and my sister's company."

Hearing this, Leon's heart tightened slightly.

It seemed like it was going to be like the first time they had dinner, where he'd be told, "There's nothing for you."

But it didn't matter. As long as his daughter could get admitted successfully, the old father would retreat with his merits hidden.

"Also, the person I want to thank the most is my... my father. He really gave me a lot of help, and I'm very grateful to him. Well, that's about it..."

After speaking, Noa looked back at Leon.

The old father was just one step away from being "tearfully moved."

The vice principal clapped his hands. "It seems Mr. Leon's guidance has been excellent. Mr. Leon, your daughter is so grateful to you, won't you show some appreciation?"

Leon stopped his tears from flowing and asked blankly, "How... should I show appreciation?"

"Of course, by hugging and kissing your excellent daughter," the vice principal said.

"Hugging... that's possible, but kissing..."

Principal, you don't want the entrance ceremony to turn into a patricide scene, do you?

"A kiss on the cheek is fine," Noa suddenly said softly.

"Huh?"

"Hurry up. Once you're done, let's quickly end this embarrassing ceremony."

Leon quickly picked up his eldest daughter. Amidst the cheers of the crowd, the astonished gaze of Losweiser, and the excited applause of Muen, he gently kissed Noa's cheek.

Very, very lightly, very, very shallowly. Noa could clearly feel Leon's cautiousness and restraint.

But Leon was content with this.

After all, just a month ago, Noa wouldn't even let him touch her.

Losweiser watched this scene and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The father-daughter relationship was finally showing signs of thawing.

Besides, she was glad it wasn't her he was supposed to kiss just now, Losweiser thought to herself with relief.

"Since you've kissed your daughter, how can you forget your wife, Mr. Leon?"

Perhaps, letting Leon slay that old dragon during the interview three days ago was a good choice?

Losweiser stood on the stage, looking at the hundreds of curious dragons in the audience. They all eagerly wanted to see how the husband of the happiest family of the year would kiss his wife.

Under everyone's gaze, Losweiser had nowhere to escape.

"Sigh."

At a loss for what to do, Leon let out a sigh as if he were helpless.

Losweiser narrowed her eyes at him, thinking that this guy was definitely pushing his luck.

"You might not know this, but my wife and I are both very reserved and introverted people in our daily lives. Even in front of our own kin, we rarely show affection. However, today, to live up to the honor bestowed upon our family by the academy, I will make a bold and rebellious decision—"

Leon turned to look at Losweiser, who was almost petrified on the spot, and extended his arm to her.

"That is, in front of all our Dragon kin, I will kiss my wife."

As soon as he said this, the audience erupted in cheers, whistles, and catcalls.

Whether they were nobles or not, human or dragon, everyone enjoyed a good spectacle.

Everyone was smiling excitedly. Even Noa couldn't help but turn back, wanting to see how her mother, who had always been poor at expressing her emotions, would react to this public kiss.

"Come on, my dear wife, we are the happiest and most harmonious family, aren't we? Let's prove it to everyone."

Leon extended his hand, making an inviting gesture.

Losweiser subconsciously took half a step back, shook her head imperceptibly, and said in a voice only they could hear, "You're not actually going to kiss me in front of hundreds of dragons, are you?"

She recalled that although she and Leon had slept together and held hands, they had never actually kissed each other—

Except for that one fateful day two years ago.

And now, not only were they going to kiss, but they were going to do it in front of hundreds of dragons.

This, this, this—

How embarrassing!

As Leon got closer and closer, Losweiser's cheeks grew redder and redder.

In fact, she could have directly refused him sternly right then and there, using the excuse that "the children are here, it's not appropriate," which would have avoided an awkward situation.

But...

Even as Leon gently took her arm, she didn't explicitly refuse.

Could it be that she herself was also anticipating something...

Anticipating that kiss...

The next second, the light in front of Losweiser was blocked, and immediately after—

Peck—

A warm touch grazed her left cheek, but only for a fleeting moment.

Although Losweiser was startled and lost her composure, she could clearly feel her heart rate soaring to an unprecedented speed in that instant.

The shadow before her receded, and the auditorium lights shone on her face once more.

Leon took her cold little hand and smiled at the onlookers in the audience, saying, "This is all you get, everyone."

If you want to see more, I'll kill you~

"Yay, Daddy kissed Mommy~" Muen cheered, clapping her hands.

And some other families formed through asexual reproduction couldn't help but feel a slight touch of emotion seeing this "loving and happy" scene.

However, the pride and stubbornness of dragons seemed to be a common ailment.

"So what if I don't have a husband! I'm not envious at all!"

"Mhm, exactly, not jealous at all, not jealous!"

But even though they said that, the young dragons from these "single-parent families" immediately felt their little hands being squeezed tightly.

So that's why they say kids shouldn't interrupt when adults are talking – to save face for the adults...

Taking advantage of the commotion, Leon looked straight ahead, a smile on his face, and said in a low voice, "Mmm, that felt good, relieved the stress, thank you, Losweiser."

If there weren't so many people here, Losweiser would have really wanted to deal with this guy on the spot, ahhhh!!

Seeing that the proceedings were almost complete, the vice-principal stepped forward to go through the motions, "Then, thank you very much to this year's model families for bringing us laughter and joy. Please go down and rest."

Leon nodded, taking the still dazed Losweiser by the hand as they walked off the stage. Noa followed closely beside him.

The entrance ceremony proceeded as planned.

About an hour later, the ceremony concluded.

Noa was about to begin her academy life.

The family of four said their goodbyes at the academy gates.

Muen said many, many things to her older sister, but the core theme was always the same:

You absolutely must miss Muen.

Noa, of course, would fulfill all her sister's requests.

The second to say goodbye was Losweiser.

She wasn't very good at expressing herself, merely patting Noa's head, "Take care of yourself, Noa."

"Mhm, I will, Mom."

After speaking, Losweiser squeezed her face a little reluctantly before turning and walking to the side.

But she had her back to them.

Finally, it was Leon's turn. He walked up to Noa and half-crouched, bringing his gaze level with hers.

"I have quite a few things to say, do you want to listen?"

Noa, her expressionless face betraying her serious nod, replied, "I want to listen."

"Remember to regularly send your dirty clothes to the aunties in the logistics department; they'll wash them for you."

"Eat breakfast on time. It's okay to wake up a little earlier; otherwise, you'll be hungry during class in the morning."

"Don't be a picky eater. You're growing now, and all sorts of nutrients are important."

"If you encounter classmates with bad personalities, don't provoke them; try to stay away."

"Also, regarding studying and classes, if you meet a teacher you don't like, or don't like a teacher's teaching style, try to listen patiently. If you don't understand, you can ask me when you come home for the holidays."

"Most importantly, if you get sick, you must go to the academy's school doctor. Absolutely do not try to tough it out."

He truly had many things to say.

But Noa listened carefully to every word, remembering it all.

However, she couldn't help but glance back at Losweiser's retreating figure.

Compared to Leon, weren't Mom's instructions a bit... too few?

Leon noticed Noa's small movement and smiled, reaching out to pat her head.

"Your mom told me all this a few days ago when she'd had too much to drink. She was too embarrassed to say it herself, so I'm doing it for her. Noa, you need to understand your mom; she's not very good at expressing her feelings."

Hearing this, a rare flicker of emotion crossed Noa's usually indifferent little face.

She bit her lower lip and gave a firm "Mm."

"Alright, as for what Dad wants to say to you, it's much simpler. Just be happy, don't feel any pressure. Of course—"

Leon looked left and right, then leaned in mysteriously and whispered in Noa's ear, "If anyone dares to bully you, don't worry about calling the parents or getting points deducted. Just hit them back. Dad's got your back."

Noa suppressed a smile and asked, "Was it like this when you were in school?"

"Yeah, except every time I finished the first half at school, my teacher—your grandpa—would take me home and make me fight the second half."

Leon said with a smile, "But don't worry, with you, there's only the first half, no second half."

Noa nodded. "I remember. I'll take care of myself."

"Mm, keep it up. We're leaving now. We'll pick you up next weekend."

"Okay."

Leon stood up and waved to Noa.

"Bye, sister! Miss Muen~"

"Mm, I'll miss you too. Be good at home and don't cause trouble."

"Got it, sister~"

As soon as she finished speaking, the Silver Dragon Queen spread her wings, and Leon, holding Muen, climbed onto her back.

Before taking off, Losweiser glanced back at Noa one last time.

Noa waved her little arm with all her might. "Be careful on your way, Mom."
