Attacks didn't always come in the form of smashes. Even words could be a deadly attack, which was why Lin Zhu and Ye Quan almost died after taking Lu Mei's heavy blow even if the woman's weapon was only her words.
Indeed, Lu Mei said that she didn't mind athletes dating each other, but she also said that there was no need for them to show off their relationship in public. It wasn't necessary, she said.
She also said that public comments would surely only disturb their peace of mind if they insisted on showing off, and that was why the woman was against the idea of showing off a romantic relationship.
Surprisingly, the woman didn't look disgusted after confirming that the two men were indeed dating each other this time, but she was more worried about how public opinion might distract their focus when they were in the middle of a tournament.
