Clothes really did make the man, was the first thing that went through Moshe's mind as soon as he saw Lu Yizhou. And then, came a strange hunch that this was how it was supposed to be; that instead of ratty shirts and sweatpants, this man ought to wear suits, looking all resplendent and glorious as if he could walk into any place on Earth and no one would even blame him for that.
Then the line of his thoughts shattered as soon as Lu Yizhou bent down to whisper into his ear. Moshe pulled up the corner of his lips into a genial smile that didn't reach his eyes. This pet was getting disobedient again, wasn't he…?
Provoking his master like that, did he think that Moshe wouldn't dare to do anything in Elias' presence?
"Elias." He said without breaking eye contact with Lu Yizhou. "Leave us alone for fifteen— no, half an hour."
"I will be in my office if you need me." Elias bowed and exited the room, closing the door behind him.
