Lin Zhu wasn't a fan of surprises, especially if they were unpleasant surprises.
He thought Ye Quan was just in a bad mood today so he couldn't even stay professional during their important match. That one thing was already so wrong for a professional athlete, but Lin Zhu had tried to tolerate it during the match.
If Ye Quan couldn't act professionally, then he should be the one covering that man since they were a team now, right? Even if he originally didn't like the idea of being on a team with Ye Quan, that was the situation now, and that was why he tried so hard not to be swayed by his partner's mood.
True, he also made mistakes when he played as if he was alone on the court rather than teaming up with the older athlete, but that was when he could only think about how he could win the match so he wouldn't let anyone down.
