Me or Her

"That's right, all of us heard her!" The smaller engineer echoed and continued to speak what was on Ruobing's mind, "If she loses, it means that she has no right to be here!"

"You heard that, Xia Xinghe? If you lose, it means that you are not good enough to be here. Be prepared to pack up and leave," Ruobing reminded her with a smirk.

Xinghe nodded affirmatively, "Don't you worry. If I lose, I will leave this place without hesitation."

"Good, we'll be sure to take you for your words! Then…"

"Wait," Xinghe cut her off, she stared at Ruobing and asked, "What if I'm the victor?"

Ruobing didn't think Xinghe had even a shred of possibility of winning so she replied perfunctorily, "You said it before, didn't you? If you win, we'll all submit to your orders."

"Other than you, you must leave this place!"

"What did you say‽" Ruobing stared at her with bulging eyes.

Everyone within earshot was equally shocked.
