"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]

Neither of them had a specific place they wanted to go for dinner, and that was why they only went to the nearest restaurant. After Lu Mei voiced her idea, a staff member informed Lin Zhu and Ye Quan that a car had arrived to take them back to the hotel, but the woman told the staff that she would send the two athletes to the hotel later, and that was why the staff could only approve the proposal, knowing that the woman was an important figure in China national team.

Lin Zhu and Ye Quan also could only agree to grant Lu Mei's wish to have dinner together tonight. Neither of them knew what topic the woman wanted to discuss with them, but in the end, they went together to the restaurant.

They had ordered the food they wanted to eat, and the waitress had already left their table. After a few moments of silence, it was why Lu Mei chose to use the time to voice her intentions, "I will be the one to sponsor you two after All England."

IS IT A DREAM?
