If you want to start a p***ing match with the other person that may end badly.
Otherwise, I would either go with Stuart's suggestion and say, "in that case,
maybe you can help her because you seem to know more about it than I do," or if
I was in a grumpy mood that day, "excuse me, we're having a conversation here."
The other approaches would all fit my description of fighting fire with
gasoline.
