Chen Yang hesitated. "Hmm... Perhaps this task isn't the best fit for you. I might need to find someone with a more... measured approach."

Panic flickered across the clone's face. "Wait, Master! You can't just throw me away! I'll do anything you ask, truly! Just give me another chance!"

He lunged forward, reaching for Chen Yang's leg, but hesitated before making contact.

"Look," Chen Yang said, a hint of annoyance in his voice, "I need someone who can handle this task with discretion. Not... theatrics."
