First, in the story of "Hurricane", Gao Qiqiang's life was full of hardships from the beginning. At the age of thirteen, a sudden car accident took his parents and completely changed the trajectory of his life.
Faced with this cruel reality, the young Gao Qiqiang had to shoulder the burden of taking care of his younger siblings. Whenever night falls, Gao Qiqiang is always the last to fall asleep. He lay on the bed, staring at the dilapidated ceiling, and his parents' voices and smiles kept replaying in his mind.
Tears were streaming silently, but he knew he couldn't fall. The next morning, he would wake up early again and prepare a simple breakfast before his younger siblings woke up. In order to maintain the family's livelihood, Gao Qiqiang chose to sell fish.
Every day before dawn, he rode his dilapidated bicycle to the fish market. In the cold winter, his hands were red from the cold, but he still insisted on picking the freshest fish. In the scorching summer sun, sweat soaked the back of his clothes, but he still did not stop.
In this way, he relied on the meager income from selling fish to raise his younger brother and sister little by little. Gao Qiqiang's youth was all dedicated to this fragmented home.
He didn't have time to fall in love, and he didn't even dare to have the luxury of liking a girl. Whenever he saw pairs of young people on the street, he could only sigh secretly and continue to work.
His only wish is for his younger siblings to go to college and become literate people. When Gao Qiqiang's life is about to enter a new stage, Chen Shuting is like a warm sun, shining into his ordinary life.
The timing was just right - Gao Qisheng had just graduated from college and opened a mobile phone store with his brother. Gao Qiqiang finally had a chance to breathe and began to think about his life.
It was an ordinary afternoon, Gao Qiqiang was standing in the dim alley, and suddenly saw an elegant figure walking towards him. That's Chen Shuting, Bai Jiangbo's ex-wife. Her appearance was originally to teach Gao Qiqiang's brothers a lesson, because Gao Qiqiang gave Guo Zhen's address to An Xin.
However, fate quietly changed the trajectory at this moment. Gao Qiqiang was stunned, not because of fear, but because he was attracted by Chen Shuting's temperament. The mature charm she exudes in her gestures is something Gao Qiqiang has never seen.
Even when Chen Shuting strangled his throat with a belt, Gao Qiqiang still pretended to be calm and said stiffly: "Not strong enough." This kind of stubbornness is just like the clumsy performance of a person who falls in love for the first time.
Chen Shuting's background amazed Gao Qiqiang. She is not only Bai Jiangbo's ex-wife, but also Uncle Tai's goddaughter. Uncle Tai's position in Jinghai is very important, and Chen Shuting's relationship with him is extraordinary.
Second, she was coquettish and joking with Uncle Tai, and maintained the relationship in her own unique way. This network resource is undoubtedly a relief for Gao Qiqiang. With the deepening of contact, Gao Qiqiang gradually learned about Chen Shuting's intelligence and skill.
After Bai Jiangbo's death, she successfully escaped from Jinghai with her son with her own ability and escaped Xu Jiang's pursuit. She found Guo Zhen's whereabouts even before Xu Jiang, but chose to hide it in order to divert the attention of others.
This ability to strategize made Gao Qiqiang sincerely admire. For Gao Qiqiang, who has never been in love, Chen Shuting is like a gift from God. She is both beautiful and intelligent, and has both resources and abilities.
Gao Qiqiang felt his heart beat faster and his breathing became short. He knew that this woman would be an indispensable part of his life. In this way, Chen Shuting appeared at a critical moment in Gao Qiqiang's life.
She not only filled the gap in Gao Qiqiang's love life, but also brought infinite possibilities to his future development. Gao Qiqiang secretly made up his mind that he must seize this opportunity and not let his first love pass by this excellent woman.
The combination of Gao Qiqiang and Chen Shuting is like two lonely stars finally finding each other's orbits. Although Chen Shuting took Bai Jiangbo's child, Gao Qiqiang still chose her without hesitation.
This determination stems from his deep love for Chen Shuting and his importance to his family. The life after marriage is not as beautiful as a fairy tale, but Gao Qiqiang and Chen Shuting continue to grow up with each other's support.
Gao Qiqiang began to learn English in order to have more common language with Chen Shuting. Whenever he studied hard at home, Chen Shuting would always silently bring fruits, expressing her support and encouragement with actions.
However, Gao Qisheng has a lot of complaints about this marriage. Once, Gao Qisheng was in a hurry to find Gao Qiqiang, but he saw his brother learning English at home. When he forcibly dragged Gao Qiqiang away, Chen Shuting came out of the kitchen and asked softly, "Don't you learn English?" Gao Qisheng scoffed at this, and said half-jokingly in the car: "You are a strict wife."
Surprisingly, Gao Qiqiang replied with a smile: "My wife is very happy." This sentence not only reflects Gao Qiqiang's love for Chen Shuting, but also shows his cherishing of this marriage.
In his opinion, having a partner who can support each other and make progress together is the greatest happiness in life. Before an important business negotiation, Gao Qiqiang deliberately took off his wedding ring.
This detail may seem insignificant, but it shows how much he cherishes this marriage. He didn't want the disputes in his career to tarnish his relationship with Chen Shuting, so he clearly divided the two.
As time passed, the relationship between Gao Qiqiang and Chen Shuting became deeper and deeper. They support each other and face life's challenges together. In the eyes of outsiders, they may just be a combination of interests, but only they know that this relationship has long gone beyond the world's eyes and has become an indispensable part of each other's lives.
Third, Chen Shuting's charm lies not only in her appearance, but also in her wisdom and ability. As Bai Jiangbo's ex-wife, she inherited a lot of wealth and resources. But Chen Shuting is not a vase that can only be squandered, her ability and wisdom are far beyond ordinary people.
After Bai Jiangbo's death, Chen Shuting showed amazing crisis management skills. She was keenly aware of the danger of the situation, and according to Bai Jiangbo's instructions, she successfully escaped from Jinghai with her son and hid in a place where even Xu Jiang could not find it.
This ability to act decisively in the face of danger made Gao Qiqiang deeply admired. What's even more amazing is that while Chen Shuting fled, she also secretly investigated the whereabouts of the driver Guo Zhen.
She knew that Guo Zhen was bought by Xu Jiang, which led to Bai Jiangbo's death. However, Chen Shuting did not rashly retaliate, but chose to remain silent. She used this information to skillfully divert An Xin and Xu Jiang's attention to Guo Zhen, buying precious safe time for herself and her son.
This superb psychological tactic shows Chen Shuting's wisdom and foresight. Chen Shuting's ability stems from her special upbringing. Since she was a child, she has not only learned the mind to do business, but also mastered the skills to deal with all kinds of people.
Unlike other people's respect for Uncle Tai, Chen Shuting always gets along with Uncle Tai as a goddaughter, can be coquettish, joke, and even achieve her goals in a roundabout way.
This special relationship provides a strong backing for Gao Qiqiang's development in Jinghai. In addition to intelligence, Chen Shuting's appearance and temperament are also charms that cannot be ignored.
When Gao Qiqiang first saw her, he was attracted by her elegant temperament. Chen Shuting is always well-dressed and elegant, whether in social occasions or daily life, she shows a unique charm of a mature woman.
Chen Shuting's talent and appearance not only fascinated Gao Qiqiang, but also provided infinite possibilities for their future development. She is not only Gao Qiqiang's virtuous helper, but also an important partner in his career.
Chen Shuting's existence has made Gao Qiqiang's life more colorful, and also gave him a strong backing in the cruel business world. Gao Qisheng has never been able to understand his brother Gao Qiqiang's deep feelings for Chen Shuting.
In his eyes, Chen Shuting is just a "half-old", and she is not worthy of Gao Qiqiang who is in the sky. This view led to disagreements between the brothers and became a hidden danger in their relationship.
Fourth, one day, Gao Qisheng hurriedly came to Gao Qiqiang to discuss things, but found that his brother was studying English at home. This scene made Gao Qisheng both surprised and dissatisfied.
He forcibly pulled Gao Qiqiang away, completely ignoring Chen Shuting who came out of the kitchen with fruit. In the car, Gao Qisheng couldn't help but joke: "You are a strict wife."
Behind this sentence is Gao Qisheng's dissatisfaction and worry about his brother's marital status. In his view, "strict wifery" means that men have no status in the family, which is a sign of cowardice.
Gao Qisheng hopes to use this way to stimulate Gao Qiqiang, let him see the current situation clearly, and not be led by Chen Shuting. However, Gao Qiqiang's answer was unexpected: "My wife is very happy to be strict."
This simple sentence shows Gao Qiqiang's satisfaction and cherishment of his marriage. He does not see himself as being controlled, on the contrary, he feels a sense of happiness and stability.
This difference between the brothers is not only a difference in their views on Chen Shuting, but also reflects their differences in values and attitudes towards life. Gao Qiqiang values inner satisfaction and family harmony, while Gao Qisheng pays more attention to external conditions and social status.
This disagreement, while not leading to direct conflict between the brothers, planted a seed of danger in their relationship. Gao Qisheng has never been able to fully accept Chen Shuting, which has also become an invisible barrier between him and Gao Qiqiang.
Time flies, and Chen Shuting finally passed away one step ahead of Gao Qiqiang. However, her departure did not take away Gao Qiqiang's love for her, but made this relationship deeper and deeper.
In the first episode of "Hurricane", we saw that Gao Qiqiang, who has entered old age, still maintains a special habit. Every time he went for tea, he would vacate his seat on either side of his seat and set up the dishes.
One position is reserved for his younger brother Gao Qisheng, and the other will always belong to Chen Shuting. This detail silently tells Gao Qiqiang's thoughts and attachment to his deceased wife. What is embarrassing is that Chen Shuting has been dead for many years, but Gao Qiqiang has never renewed.
In his world, Chen Shuting is irreplaceable. Even though she is no longer alive, Gao Qiqiang still uses the bits and pieces of life to express his nostalgia for her. Gao Qiqiang's behavior is far beyond the commemoration of the deceased by ordinary people.
It shows a deep, almost obsessive love. In Gao Qiqiang's heart, Chen Shuting is not only his wife, but also the most important companion and confidant in his life journey.
This kind of deep affection may be something that Gao Qisheng can't understand until he dies. In Gao Qisheng's eyes, Chen Shuting is just a woman who is "not worthy" of Gao Qiqiang. But for Gao Qiqiang, Chen Shuting is an indispensable part of his life, a harbor for his soul, a pillar of his career, and the embodiment of the love of his life.
Fifth, Gao Qiqiang's deep affection for Chen Shuting is not only reflected in his nostalgia for the past, but also in his attitude towards the future. Even though Chen Shuting has passed away, Gao Qiqiang still adheres to their common philosophy and values, and continues to run the business they have built together.
This feeling, which remains unchanged after years of baptism, is the source of Gao Qiqiang's inner strength. It allows Gao Qiqiang to always maintain firmness and courage in the face of various challenges in life.
Because he knows that even if Chen Shuting is no longer around, her soul is still with him, giving him endless strength and comfort.
