A sweet romance about a bickering couple.
The focus is on romance, so you don't need to know anything about esports to enjoy it.

Three years ago, Bai Yitan had short, messy hair and wore shorts as she played games at her uncle's internet cafe. Her dream was to become a professional esports player, but people laughed and told her, "Keep dreaming!"
After waking up from a nap, she found that the world had changed.
The bad news was that she'd been in a car accident and lost her memory. She'd debuted as an idol through a talent show, been dumped by her top-tier star ex-boyfriend, and was now lying in the hospital with her fractured leg propped up, contemplating life.
The good news was that she now had money and time to play games to her heart's content! If not now, when would she climb to the top of the ladder?
Not long after, Bai Yitan dragged her still-healing fractured leg onto a celebrity exhibition match and crushed the top-tier star who was supposedly her ex-boyfriend in their lane matchup.
Just as she was basking in her triumph, the opposing team switched junglers.
Bai Yitan stared at the suddenly grown-up face across from her and nearly blurted out, "Why is it you?!"
After the match, You Siwei, the league's top jungler and highest-paid player, looked at the vase-like female idol trying to cozy up to him and said coldly, "I don't have WeChat, thanks."
But nobody knew that the so-called God of the Jungle, You Siwei, who could have coasted on his looks but insisted on relying on his skills, had once had an unrequited crush that came to nothing. The girl he'd met at an internet cafe had short, messy hair and wore shorts. She was a tomboy, and to this day, no one knew where she was.

[Breaking] Unbelievable! I think I just saw Siwe Daddy duo-queueing with a girl on a smurf!
-- What nonsense are you talking about? He's famous for never duo-queueing in ranked, and with his reckless, selfish playstyle, what girl wouldn't get mad at him?
-- Damn! I saw the screenshots! It might actually be true...
-- Looking at the match history, it doesn't seem like he's carrying her. She's carrying him.
-- ??!!!
-- I just joined the observer stream, and Siwe Daddy was giving her kills and even letting her take both red and blue buffs. Has someone cursed him? This isn't the kill-stealing fiend I know!
-- Siwe Daddy, if you've been hacked, just say so.
-- ??? Why doesn't he feed the entire wolf camp and raptors to that ADC, too?
-- Help! That girl seems even more aggressive than he is...

Later, Bai Yitan went to her uncle's house to sort through some old things. In the weathered notebook from the internet cafe, she found a line of writing.
It was in You Siwei's handwriting, messy and wild, yet passionate and young.
-- "I'll make the dream you abandoned come true for you."
Note:
The ex-boyfriend is an idiot, so don't worry about him.
