"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]

Two young men sitting across from a woman with only a table separating them. Even if the men had entered the office and sat down in front of the woman, she still didn't say anything, instead continuing to stare at the two men intently.

It was just a silent stare, and the woman didn't even say anything, but the two men looked nervous because of the unreadable stares.

"So, you changed your mind, Lin Zhu?" Finally, the woman asked the brown-haired man sitting across from her, and her eyes were glued to the man at this moment.

Lin Zhu, who had just received a question from Lu Mei, gulped nervously, and he even glanced at Ye Quan as if asking for help. Ye Quan noticed his gaze and returned it with a slight smile on his face, and that was enough to cheer Lin Zhu up.

Focusing his gaze on the woman again, Lin Zhu replied, "That's right, Mrs. Lu. I've changed my mind, and I want to continue fighting for the national team."
