F you, that's what's up

I'm looking for a response to "What's up?"or "What's new?" or "How are you?" that gives off a certain tone...

Assume the situation is you run into someone socially (party, public transit, grocery store) that you don't really want to talk to because they treated you poorly - an ex who dumped you in a callus way, a (you thought) good friend who ghosted you. You'd rather ignore them but they come over and say hello. You really don't want to waste any more seconds of your life on this person, even just for pleasantries. How to shut this down and communicate this?

This cool Don Draper vibe is what I want to give off: https://youtu.be/LlOSdRMSG_k

I'm also looking for something that gets across I do not want to talk to YOU in particular. This is not at work and assume there's no big audience, ao it can be slightly cutting/edgy.

I don't want to say "Nothing" because that just implies my life is boring.
"Fuck you" or "What do you care?" or "Why are you talking to me?" or even "Why do you want to know?" are too strong. I don't want that person to think they have so much meaning and power that they can upset me.
A withering glance and icy tone by themselves might be too subtle; the other party might think I'm just having a bad day. Ditto something like "I need to go."
No, I don't want to be polite and the bigger person because Reasons.

I hope you guys have fun with this one.
