His head wasn’t fully awake yet, and he absentmindedly glanced toward the sofa in the bedroom—only to spot a flash of red. Still dazed, Leon mumbled:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Morning, sis.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Morning, little brother-in-law.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leon turned over, planning to go back to sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What sis... isn’t this our home...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser groggily sat up as well, squinting toward the sofa with sleepy eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, it really is you, sis. Morning.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Morning, little Ross.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After exchanging those bizarre morning greetings, the queen flopped back down on the bed. The couple lay side by side, facing each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the silence, they suddenly felt something was off—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They both snapped their eyes open, stared at one another, then simultaneously jolted upright and instinctively shrank into the corner of the bed, clutching the blanket tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When did you get in here, sis?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s morning, isn’t it? Why are you two acting like this in your own bedroom?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isha sat slanted on the sofa, legs crossed, smiling with squinted eyes as she waved her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I saw there weren’t any guards at the door, so I came in.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who the hell posts guards at the bedroom door?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just a little intrusion, good morning~ Actually, I came by this early because it’s something urgent.\" she said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The couple calmed down a little, both secretly relieved that last night’s “teaching session” had been perfectly tame—no fancy moves—otherwise, the battlefield aftermath might’ve been witnessed by Big Sis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s so urgent?\" Rosvisser asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Borrow something.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Borrow what?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A kid.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm, no. That look in her eyes is too cold—she doesn’t look like she’s my blood relative at all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isha walked past Noa the Overachiever and came over to the eager Moon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pick me! Auntie, pick me, pick me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moon raised her hand, practically jumping with excitement to be “borrowed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm... no, too energetic. I can’t control that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Moon: TAT\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Isha went to Aurora. Aurora clasped her hands behind her back, looked up at Isha, and gave a sweet, well-behaved smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The big and small ones stared at each other for a moment, and then Isha shook her head again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She’s definitely plotting something fun. Nope. This is serious—I can’t have you treating it like a comedy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora: QAQ\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next came Xiaoxue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do... do adopted ones count in the selection pool...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isha gave Xiaoxue a once-over, but still shook her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Too adult. Way too perfect for the fake story I made up. Nope, not happening.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoxue quietly let out a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, it was little Muse, standing there nervously. Isha observed her for a moment, then smiled in satisfaction and scooped her up, unable to resist examining her face closely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Age fits, vibe fits, and her eye color matches mine perfectly. Yep, it’s you, my little niece!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, she hugged Muse tightly to her chest, rubbing their cheeks together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leon and Rosvisser exchanged a look, and eventually couldn’t hold back from asking,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sis, you still haven’t explained—what exactly are you planning to do with her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isha turned around, still holding Muse in her arms, and explained:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little brother-in-law, remember that guy named Beren from the last election?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leon nodded:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, didn’t he keep chasing after you? Don’t tell me he still hasn’t given up?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He hasn’t.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isha said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Back during the election, I told him I already had a child to reject him. It made him back off a bit, but now he sent me a letter saying he doesn’t mind and he’s coming to visit my tribe tomorrow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that, the couple both sucked in a sharp breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That guy’s like cling film, huh? Just won’t come off!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leon complained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser crossed her arms and furrowed her brows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Give him one more verbal beatdown and he’ll back off.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Isha just sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Judging by the tone of his letter, he probably thinks I made up the story about having a kid to reject him. Which, well, I did make it up later on... but if he shows up tomorrow and sees that I don’t even have a child at home, that’ll just reinforce his belief that I was lying. That’ll only make him cling even harder.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that, the couple finally understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So that’s why you came here to... uh... borrow one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the perks of having a house full of daughters: if a relative suddenly needs to borrow a kid, you can just point and pick at will! (not that that’s a good thing)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mhm. I just want to use this chance to reject him properly and cut off his hopes for good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In that case, little Muse is the perfect choice. A niece—yeah, that’s a role she can definitely play well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the couple had no reason to refuse Isha’s request.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And besides, it was a good chance for Muse to experience a change of environment. Spending a few days at the Red Dragon Sanctuary would be a nice little break.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Muse herself agreed too. After all, her aunt had always been kind to them. It was just a small favor—if she could help, she would.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once everything was decided, Isha set off with the borrowed kid and headed back to the Red Dragon Tribe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Muse lay on the back of the red dragon, waving down at her parents and sisters below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can stay and have fun for a few days, Muse. Be good, okay~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser called out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I got it, Mama!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t forget to bring back that strawberry cake from the Red Dragon Tribe! I didn’t get enough last time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moon cupped her hands around her mouth and shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mmhmm! Got it, Second Sis!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the goodbyes echoed through the air, Isha slowly unfurled her wings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All set, Muse. Let’s go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red dragon slowly took flight and soared into the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the dragon silhouette fade into the distance, Leon let out a breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hope Muse has a good time out there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My sister loves kids. She’ll take good care of her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leon nodded, then turned and started walking toward the sanctuary with his wife and children.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on. Today Dad’s gonna teach you some new magic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Next Day – Red Dragon Sanctuary\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Muse was dressed in a princess gown tailored just for her. She looked like a soft, fragrant little cake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isha couldn’t resist planting several kisses on her chubby cheeks before loudly proclaiming:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If Auntie really had a daughter as obedient and cute as you, I’d be so happy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Muse’s little brain didn’t follow the loops in the conversation. Her ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ thoughts were straightforward, so she replied bluntly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Auntie, you can just make a baby of your own if you want.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isha smiled and pinched her cheek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I like ready-made ones. Don’t wanna do all that work myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Muse didn’t quite get her aunt’s metaphor. She blinked and added:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then Auntie, you can get married. After that you can get pregnant, and then you can have a baby.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that, Isha froze for a second, then smiled again and explained:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Auntie here is a non-marriage kind of person.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Muse tilted her head. \"What’s a non-marriage person?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It means no dating, no marriage, staying single for life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why would you do that? Isn’t living alone your whole life really lonely?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the child’s innocent question, Isha merely lowered her gaze halfway, as if she’d sunk into a memory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, she lifted her eyes to Muse again, the gentle smile returning to her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"More than loneliness... Auntie doesn’t want to be hurt by someone again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you mean—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your Majesty, the Nebula Dragon King Beren seeks an audience.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guard’s report cut short Muse and her aunt’s conversation. Muse never did figure out what her aunt meant by “not wanting to be hurt.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isha took Muse’s little hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s go. In a bit, you’ve got to back Auntie up, okay? Don’t break character.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Muse pushed aside her thoughts and nodded seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Third Sis gave me strict training on how to watch drama without laughing. So I won’t break character.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused, then solemnly added:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Unless I can’t hold it in.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1360,"2026-06-06T15:10:09.886Z",1,"novelbin.me","694cd139453ad4828c3bfc42712558dd2c541f2e6cd218d59c17170548940eca","shut-up-malevolent-dragon-i-don-t-want-to-have-a-chapter-860","shut-up-malevolent-dragon-i-don-t-want-to-have-a-chapter-858",914,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fshut-up-malevolent-dragon-i-don-t-want-to-have-a-cover.jpg"]
