Awakening the War God novel Chapter 214

Chapter 214 Roasted Meat 

"Zoe, sorry for the delay. Have you eaten? I bought some stewed beef!" 

When Gabriel returned to Stellar Estate, it was already half past seven in the evening. 

He was holding a deluxe version of stewed beef. Suddenly, he smelled the aroma of roasted meat. 

Looking up, he saw steam rising from the table, and it turned out to be a delivery of roasted meat. 

The stewed beef he was holding instantly lost its appeal. 

"Gabriel, Zoe took the SAT today, but you weren't even home!" 

Seeing Gabriel come back, Ava immediately stood up and sternly questioned him. 

To get closer to Gabriel, she told herself to treat Zoe like her younger sister. 

As long as she won over Zoe, she would surely be able to get closer to Gabriel! 

So, taking advantage of Zoe's SAT, she came to show her affection. 

But she never expected that Gabriel wouldn't be home. 

All her efforts were almost in vain. 

Seeing Ava, Gabriel couldn't help but feel a headache. 

Had she gone crazy? She was not reserved at all and was too proactive towards him. 

He was very speechless. Pointing at the roasted meat, he said, "Zoe has to take the SAT tomorrow. How can you let her eat roasted meat?" 

"The gutter oil in the Dragon Kingdom is not just a rumor. If Zoe gets a stomachache and fails the test tomorrow, you'll be the one to blame!" 

He didn't even dare to put chili in the stewed beef, but Ava ordered spicy roasted meat for Zoe! 

Ava was stunned for a moment as if she just realized why Zoe hadn't had the food from the beginning. 

"Zoe, I'm sorry. I didn't think about it and just wanted you to have a good meal!" 

Pouting and awkwardly smiling, Ava apologized to Zoe. 

Zoe smiled warmly and shook her head. "It's okay. I appreciate your kindness. You guys go ahead and eat. I'll have the stewed beef that Gabriel brought back!" 

Gabriel walked into the kitchen and put the stewed beef into a bowl. 

After handing the bowl to Zoe, he sat down next to Ava and said, "Wow, there's so much meat in here. It must have cost hundreds of dollars!" 

The square table was filled to the brim. 

There were six plates of beef and lamb alone! 

It was truly extravagant! 

As he spoke, he picked up his fork and started eating. 

"You said this is gutter oil that will cause a stomachache, so why are you still eating it?" Ava rolled her eyes. 

Gabriel casually said, "Don't worry. I'm a professional at having gutter oil. After eating it for so long, I'm immune to the harm. It's okay!" 

This statement wasn't a lie, as everyone who frequented street vendors had gutter oil. 

As they had it, they became used to it! 

"Gutter oil is nothing. I once drank the water from the Dirtiest River, but I didn't even have diarrhea! " Blind John, who was nearby, took a sip of his drink, belched, and said proudly. 

"Amazing! " Gabriel gave Blind John a thumbs-up sign and his eyes were full of admiration. "I have to say that you're awesome!"  

Compared to the Dirtiest River water on the Southeastern Island, gutter oil was green food! 

"The Dirtiest River? I've never heard of it before," Ava curiously asked. 

"Don't you know about the Dirtiest River?" Gabriel looked shocked and immediately concluded, "I'm sure you're a terrible student. You probably didn't even pass the minimum score for the SAT!" 

"You..." Ava angrily roared, "I actually got into Silverwood University back then, a legitimate first-tier university!" 

She didn't mention the year she spent in remedial classes, so as not to be mocked by Gabriel! 

"You're so impressive!" After eating a piece of meat, Gabriel laughed and said, "I'll ask you a few basic knowledge questions, and if you can answer them, you're a college student! Let's see if you can handle it!" 

"Bring it on. I'm not afraid of you!" Ava had a lot of fight in her. "If I lose, I'll sleep with you tonight!" 

"You wish!" Gabriel immediately became anxious and felt speechless. "You're not punishing yourself. That's clearly a reward!" 

This statement made Zoe and Blind John laugh. 

Only Christopher was innocent and didn't understand! 

"Quickly come up with a question!" Ava blinked her big eyes, showing interest. 

She wanted to prove her intelligence and academic qualifications! 

After eating another piece of meat, Gabriel asked, "Does the Ruler of Heaven live in the stratosphere or the troposphere? Does the Thunder God and Lightning Goddess use AC or DC electricity? Is Sage Erlang's third eye a monolid or a double eyelid?" 

Ava, who was originally excited, suddenly pulled a long face. 

She pointed at Gabriel and scolded him, "What kind of b*llshit question is this? No one knows the answer!" 

She was furious. Gabriel was clearly teasing her!
