"She will be so pleased to know you've come," said Chataya.

Will my lord take a cup of wine while he waits?"

"I will," he said.
“好的，”他说。
The wine was poor stuff compared to the vintages from the Arbor the house normally served.
跟平日里品尝的上等青亭岛葡萄酒相比，这酒很粗劣。

A handsome woman, Tyrion reflected as he watched her go.

The last time he ventured out, a man had spit on him... well, had tried to.

"Is milord feeling unloved?"
“大人，可觉得自己缺少爱怜？”
Dancy slid into his lap and nibbled at his ear.

"I have a cure for that."
“我最会治疗这种病哦。”
Smiling, Tyrion shook his head.
提利昂微笑着摇头，
"You are too beautiful for words, sweetling, but I've grown fond of Alayaya's remedy."
“亲爱的，你真是美得难以形容，但只怕我对爱拉雅雅的疗法上瘾了呢。”

Milord never chooses anyone but 'Yaya.
大人每次都选雅雅。
She's good but I'm better, don't you want to see?"
她很棒，但是我更棒，您不想试试么？”
"Next time, perhaps."
“或许……下次吧。”
Tyrion had no doubt that Dancy would be a lively handful.

Giggling, she put her hand between his thighs and squeezed him through his breeches.

"I don't think he wants to wait till next time," she announced.
“我觉得它可等不到下次，”她宣告，
"He wants to come out and count all my freckles, I think."
“它想出来数数我的雀斑呢。”
