"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]

Did he read it wrong? Was the person calling him not who he thought he was?

Lin Zhu even needed to pull the phone from his ear before he once again read the name written on the screen and found he wasn't wrong. It was that person who called him, but why was that person suddenly speaking harshly to him?

"Are you all right, gege?" Putting the phone right next to his ear once again, Lin Zhu asked the person who called him, and he also told the young lady behind the ticket counter to wait because he needed to talk to the person on the phone first.

The young lady could only nod awkwardly at him, and Lin Zhu stepped away from the ticket counter to a quiet place where he could talk to the person peacefully.

He once again checked the caller ID on the phone screen, and it still showed the same name though he was still confused as to why the person had suddenly changed his character a bit when talking to him.
