"BAD, MEAN, TOAD."

Those were the three words Lin Zhu used to describe Ye Quan.

Lin Zhu was a talented badminton athlete who started his brilliant career as a junior player in the national badminton team. He had won many titles as a men's singles player in the junior team, and his achievements were rewarded with a promotion to the senior team.

But, to his dismay, the reward suddenly turned into a punishment. He performed so badly in the last two years he spent with the senior team that he was finally kicked out of the men's singles team. He had only two choices: 1. Bury his dream and retire at such a young age; 2. Agree to be transferred to the men's doubles team. And Lin Zhu chose the second option.

He didn't expect that he would be paired with Ye Quan, another badminton player who had become his mortal enemy since a few years ago. Under the pressure from the team management to become the best men's doubles pair in the world, Lin Zhu and Ye Quan began their journey despite harboring hatred for each other.

What will happen to the two athletes? Will they be able to achieve their goal even if they are always at each other's throats?

BAD, MEAN, TOAD [BL]

Ye Quan was troubled inside. Perhaps he was feeling lucky that Lin Zhu had changed his mind and decided to return to the team instead of leaving, but he was distracted by something else after he had a serious talk with Cheng Xiaojian.

Just like how Zhao Jia told him today, it turned out that quite a few people in the team knew that he was still dating that girl secretly, and that was why Ye Quan knew that he was in trouble now.

Even if he used the word "secret" to describe his relationship with Zhao Jia, some people eventually learned the truth about them, and Ye Quan knew that, sooner or later, Lu Mei would call him to talk to him about the matter.

Ye Quan suddenly regretted how he had chosen to continue having a relationship with Zhao Jia even if the team had banned their relationship. Now, he had to deal with people who must have thought he was just a liar, and that was why his legs felt so weak as he carried them into the training hall.

THEY WILL START DATING
