Zhang Xiao is the modern woman who has transmigrated into the body of Gege Ruoxi. The narrative directly mentions that she had transmigrated and is confused and struggling, uncertain whether she is Zhang Xiao or Ruoxi. Her identity is inferred from the drastic change in Ruoxi’s personality after the injury. She is the person whose consciousness now occupies Ruoxi, and her modern sensibilities account for the peculiar behaviour noticed by the household.
