"..If you don't have any reason to be here, leave." It's clipped and he's looking away, at the spine of another book, thankful his hair is long enough to cover his ears because having Wei Ying so close is wreaking havoc on him in ways he doesn't want to begin to define.

"...I have work to do."Not that it's due anytime soon but he's always ahead of schedule and if Wei ying catches the lie in those words as well as his pulse speeding up, he's free to call him out on it.

He picks a book, not even sure what it is and moves away again.
