The news that ZGDX was recruiting a female player spread across the internet, sparking heated discussions among netizens. Many were skeptical about Tong Yao's abilities. In the training room, ZGDX team members were also gossiping about Tong Yao’s recruitment online. Just then, the doorbell rang. Lu Sicheng mistakenly thought it was a food delivery and took the order without a second thought.

It wasn't until Xiao Pang noticed something was off that the team realized the person outside was their new teammate, Tong Yao. After finally making it inside, Tong Yao and Lu Sicheng stared at each other, kicking off their bickering dynamic right away. Meanwhile, the team manager arrived and introduced Tong Yao to everyone while also briefing her on the people she would be working with.

Known for his sharp tongue, Lu Sicheng immediately launched into his sarcastic commentary, throwing cold remarks at Tong Yao. Since he kept fish as pets, he wasn’t pleased about Tong Yao bringing a cat with her. Xiao Pang took Tong Yao on a tour of her new dorm room. When he opened the door, the pink-themed décor left Tong Yao completely stunned.

But the clueless Xiao Pang enthusiastically introduced the room, leaving Tong Yao with no choice but to respond politely. Before leaving, Xiao Pang turned back to cheer her on. Back in her room, Tong Yao immediately shared her current situation online. That night, she called her parents to let them know she had arrived safely. However, her father, still worried, video-called her right away. Through the call, he kept pointing things out, expressing concern after concern.

Before they could talk much, Tong Yao’s mother started scolding her again. Feeling dejected, Tong Yao had no choice but to hang up the call and lie back on her bed, flipping through ZGDX’s team guide. The night passed uneventfully. The next morning, Tong Yao was woken up by her alarm. Entering the empty living room, she began searching for food. Just then, the team’s housekeeper returned from grocery shopping, and the two had a brief chat.

Afterward, Tong Yao busied herself with her own tasks. At that moment, Xiao Pang, still half-asleep, walked into the living room in just his boxers. Tong Yao teased him upon seeing this. Realizing his situation, Xiao Pang screamed and ran off. Soon after, the other team members started waking up and gathering for breakfast. Like Xiao Pang, Lu Sicheng also hadn’t fully registered that there was a female teammate now.

The atmosphere became awkward as he stiffly turned around and walked back to his room. Before long, team manager Xiao Rui arrived with former mid-laner Ming Shen. Xiao Rui pulled Tong Yao aside for a quick chat. After signing the contract, Tong Yao officially became part of the team. Lu Sicheng was then assigned the task of taking her out to buy daily necessities. Unable to refuse, he reluctantly agreed. As soon as they left, the two started bickering.

Even the most patient person has limits, and Lu Sicheng’s sarcastic remarks eventually sparked Tong Yao’s temper. Just then, her friends Ai Jia and Liang Sheng appeared—they were the mid-laner and support of YQCB. Tong Yao enthusiastically introduced them to Lu Sicheng, but he remained indifferent. After a brief chat, the two groups decided to arrange a friendly match. Once Lu Sicheng left, Ai Jia pleaded with Tong Yao to say good things about him in front of her best friend.

After learning the reason, Ai Jia seemed deep in thought. The two were still talking when Lu Sicheng pulled up in his car, calling for Tong Yao to get in. At the mall, Lu Sicheng watched Tong Yao press the elevator button, suddenly recalling their first encounter that day. However, Tong Yao stubbornly refused to admit it. The two continued arguing along the way. While shopping, Tong Yao struggled to reach slippers on the top shelf.

Unable to bear watching, Lu Sicheng stepped in to help. They kept bickering as they walked, with Lu Sicheng mocking her height and bringing up the incident where she hid water bottles in the supermarket. This finally made Tong Yao realize that the "water thief" she had been holding a grudge against was standing right in front of her. After checking out, they were surrounded by fans before getting into the car.

When asked by the fans, Lu Sicheng casually introduced Tong Yao as a staff member. As a result, the unfortunate Tong Yao ended up taking photos for everyone. Later, Lu Sicheng lectured Tong Yao like a senior advising a junior before they got in the car to head back. Back at the training base, the team held a welcome party for their newest member. Ming Shen patiently shared some veteran experiences with her. With that, Tong Yao officially embarked on her professional esports career.
