Background / History

A senior-year student at Jiangcheng University, Zhou Jialu studied marketing and had to retake a failed course. Before meeting Su Bai, she worried about post-graduation employment, having found the prospects for liberal-arts marketing graduates poor. Her internships had nevertheless given her practical social skills and confidence in handling difficult people. 32 37 39

She had long been the subject of gossip because of her developed figure and conspicuous style, beginning in high school. Rather than become timid, she chose to dress well and disregard slander; she later states that she no longer cares about others' opinions of her reputation. 13 39

Zhou Jialu met Su Bai while working at a Mercedes-Benz 4S dealership. Initially expecting an innocent junior, she was struck by his composure, ease, and financial strength. Their flirtatious first interactions developed quickly into dates and an official relationship. 11 12 17

Su Bai's extravagant gifts and support transformed her circumstances before graduation, including luxury fashion, a limited-edition handbag, and a Mercedes-Benz C260L. She publicly defended their relationship against Zhang Kang, using both her own poise and Su Bai's status to force him to back down. 37 38

After becoming concerned that she could be replaced by more capable women around Su Bai, Zhou Jialu chose to make herself indispensable by pursuing professional butler training. She returned from training with greater confidence and practical skills, eventually becoming the chief steward of Su Bai's private club and household. 86 87 127 573

By the establishment of Baiye Holdings' sports-science project, Su Bai entrusted her with club operations, personnel, logistics, external reception, price inquiries, bidding, and hiring coordination alongside Chen Yusheng's technical oversight. 600
