Plot

After joining an all-male e-sports team, an amateur gamer tests her skills and leads her team to the world championships.

In the ultra-competitive world of e-sports, the all-male ZGDX team is second to none. Armies of adoring female fans follow the team wherever it goes. But when one of the team's star players suffers a hand injury, the tall, handsome, and notoriously hard-to-please ZGDX captain Lu Si Cheng (Xu Kai) will not be rushed into choosing a replacement. The petite, lollipop-loving Tong Yao (Cheng Xiao), meanwhile, is a budding amateur gamer - obsessed with honing her skills. Her abilities are exceptional, but she is of the firm belief that in the male-dominated world of pro gaming, love is a big no-no - even though her own boyfriend is a gamer. When the ZGDX team manager learns of her skills, he contacts her, thinking that recruiting her as the scene's first female player will help score a major PR coup. She breaks up with her arrogant boyfriend, who scoffs at her dreams of becoming a pro. And Lu Si Cheng is dismissive of her initially, but eventually agrees to accept her as a trainee - a move that polarizes the team's fanbase. But as they start to get to know one another better, could a closer bond begin to form between them?
