Also known as Uncle Zhang, he is Wang Zhaodi's new husband and Zhang Yuanyuan's father. He works at a factory and returned from work pushing a bicycle with a broken chain. He is deeply concerned about his biological daughter and views Gu Panyao as a burden and tag-along. He is easily manipulated by Gu Panyao's feigned kindness and agrees to cooperate with her plan to let Gu Panyao take Zhang Yuanyuan's place going to the countryside, seeing it as a beneficial arrangement.
