Ling was more than ready to take on the crowd if she had to. She wasn’t afraid of a fight and had been looking forward to getting a bit of a work out after that dinner but Mai dispersing the crowd worked as well she supposed. “Bunch of pansies.” She grumbled under her breath as the crowd finished dispersing. Suddenly a lone figure stepped out of the crowd with a face she’d rather have never seen again, Chao Yi, although she’d have made an exception if it was covered in blood and bruises so she could laugh at him for getting what he deserved.<br/><br/>Ling made a disgusted at Chao as he emerged from the crowd and sneered at her.  “Guess you didn’t want the crowd to see you get your butt kicked again Chao.” She responded not any happier to see him than he was to see her. When he turned to Mai and tried to get her to do some work for him she was quick to speak. “Don’t do anything this oxygen thief asks Mai. It’ll only lead to trouble and he doesn’t deserve your help anyway.” She said as she glared at Chao.
