The location is correct.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Midnight... it’s already past three o’clock...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His thoughts drift back to hours before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last night at eleven thirty, amidst the deep night and stormy weather.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Jiashu had already arrived silently like a ghost at this perilously situated abandoned lighthouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cold rain and deep darkness were his natural cover.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In terms of stealth and assassination, he is equally seasoned, confident he can rival those special forces veterans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Jiashu meticulously checked every corner of the lighthouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the cobwebbed tower top to the damp stone stairs below, any potential traps or ambushes could not escape his sharp eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After confirming safety, Cheng Jiashu didn’t plan to wait so openly for the meeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, he set up some small mechanisms, then concealed himself, hiding in the shadows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ready to give the upcoming visitor a surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Jiashu envisioned dozens of ways the other could appear, and his own composed responses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even rehearsed several times the sarcastic opening lines and how to question the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the midnight chimes had long dissipated into the wind and rain, leaving no trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time crawls slowly with the ticking of the hands, but the agreed figure has yet to appear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His meticulously arranged plan seemed washed away by the heavy rain, an undeniable sense of anxiety begins to grow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initially, Cheng Jiashu could remain calm, stepping out of the ambush spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes poking his head out, gazing at the dark night outside, sometimes retreating into the tower, pacing and considering countermeasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, simply standing with arms folded, looking at the wind and rain outside in boredom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nearly four hours of waiting is enough to wear down the patience of most people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, amid such stormy darkness at dawn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Cheng Jiashu is not most people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing signs of the storm easing outside, his eyes glint, his mind races quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should he wait a bit longer?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the other party proactively suggested the meeting, they shouldn’t miss it without any reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps an accident happened on the way, like a car breaking down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps exposed, being chased by the Noah Organization, prioritizing survival over the meeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or maybe, simply some delay occurred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Various thoughts rise and fall like the waves under the cliffs outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, Cheng Jiashu takes a deep breath of slightly salty and cold air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forcing back chaotic thoughts, his eyes regain determination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he’s already waited this long, he may as well give the other party more time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, someone with such intelligence is no ordinary person, cautious action is understandable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passes by the minute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the lighthouse, the storm gradually subsides, yet the roar of the waves crashing against rocks remains clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Occasionally, from the direction of the city, a few faint and distant sirens can be heard, quickly dispersed by the night wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adding a touch of inexplicable tension to this lonely, prolonged waiting process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Jiashu maintains his good posture, almost blending into the stone wall behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the slight adjustments in his stance show he hasn’t fallen asleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No idea how long it has been, finally the storm outside completely stops, leaving only fine rain threads and the howling sea wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the tower remains dim, but through the arched windows, you can now see the eastern horizon, a faint white belly shining on the sky, gradually dispelling the remaining darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The distant city’s silhouette becomes clear in the darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a giant silhouette just washed by rain, quietly lying on the horizon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dawn has arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the person Cheng Jiashu is waiting for, still hasn’t shown up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>..................\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wenchuan District, Midnight Forest Bar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After midnight, the noise has subsided.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the center of the dance floor, the huge disco ball now hangs silently.\u003C\u002Fp>",890,"2026-05-29T15:13:34.679Z","2026-06-01T04:29:35.325Z",1,"novelbin.me","1a93946f85e50c02672afc847372947ce6f9e9fabba205ccc7298ec87d7dda8d","starting-to-gain-experience-from-push-ups-chapter-571","starting-to-gain-experience-from-push-ups-chapter-569",1278,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-to-gain-experience-from-push-ups-cover.jpg"]
