1. After Cheng Jia watched her first match, her name trended online and drew plenty of attention. An unknown netizen posted about her on Weibo, and she gained thirty thousand followers overnight. From knowing nothing about games to being officially recognized as a professional commentator, Cheng Jia blazed her way to the KPL commentary desk. Her fans jokingly dubbed her the “Esports Lucky Charm.”
On the fifth day of streaming, as required by her company, someone in her chat asked what she thought of Y, the god-tier player at the top of esports. Cheng Jia thought of everything he'd done to her.
She blurted out, “A hypocrite. Petty, too.” Then she cheerfully explained the origins of those labels to her chat.
She didn't expect someone to deliberately edit the clip and post it online. Their fans spent three days tearing into each other, with neither side willing to back down.
Rumors that the two of them were on bad terms spread like wildfire.
2. Yan Qing of Rongcheng's SDZ team became a legend as soon as he went pro. His exceptional game sense and mechanical skill earned him the title “Y,” or “God Y,” among fans and players alike. In match footage and livestreams, he was always seen in a black baseball cap, his face half-hidden and devoid of expression. Fans jokingly called him “Cap God.”
In a post-match interview, a reporter asked, “It's a shame to hide half of such a handsome face, God Y. Have you ever thought about dating?”
Yan Qing gave a derisive laugh. “Why would I date? Dating? Even dogs don't do that.”
Then one day, Yan Qing accidentally logged into his alternate account and entered the game without thinking.
Cheng Jia happened to be online. He invited her, and she immediately turned on her mic.
“Why are you online so early today?” he asked, his tone remarkably familiar.
The moment Cheng Jia's voice came through Yan Qing's livestream, the chat exploded.
Fans: ???
Cheng Jia: ???
Yan Qing: My identity's been exposed???

Professional esports player x professional esports commentator
Notes: 1. Set on a university campus. The game is Honor of Kings. There are many fictional details, and the matches differ from real life.
2. A genuine romance and a sweet little treat, with gaming as a secondary focus.
