--- Comment #1 from Ming Hua <ming.v.hua at qq.com> ---
I don't usually use Draw, but here is a suggestion:

Background information -- LibreOffice distinguish three types of text: ordinary
western, east Asian (CJK), and complex text layout (CTL).  If you install
LibreOffice in a English (or other common European languages) locale, the
latter two are disabled by default.

Since you didn't mention CTL in your following description of default font
setting:
(In reply to Gessel from comment #0)
> Set the default font to, say 
> Western: Noto Sans, regular, 6pt English (USA)
> Asian: Noto Sans CJK SC, regular, 6pt, Chinese (simplified)
I suspect you didn't turn on CTL support.

What is your setting for "Tools > Options" dialog, "Language Settings >
Languages" panel, "Default Language for Documents > Complex text layout"
option?  If it's disabled, can you turn it on and re-test?  After enabling CTL,
you should see a third drop-down list in your usual font setting dialogs, where
you can also specify the size of CTL fonts to be 6pt by default.
