Chapter 4: The Reunion

第4章:重逢

Gatsby asked Nick to arrange a private meeting with Daisy Buchanan, revealing that they had been lovers five years earlier before Daisy married Tom. Gatsby's entire existence revolved around this woman, and he had built his fortune and extravagant lifestyle solely to win her back.

盖茨比请尼克安排与黛西·布坎南的私人会面,透露他们在五年前黛西嫁给汤姆之前曾是恋人。盖茨比的整个存在都围绕着这个女人,他建立自己的财富和奢华的生活方式只是为了把她赢回来。

The meeting was awkward at first, but Gatsby's devotion and persistence eventually won Daisy over. Nick watched as their reunion unfolded, observing both the genuine affection between them and the obsessive nature of Gatsby's love, which seemed more focused on an idealized version of Daisy than the actual woman she had become.

起初会面很尴尬,但盖茨比的奉献和坚持最终打动了黛西。尼克看着他们的重逢,观察着他们之间真正的感情,以及盖茨比爱情的执著性质,这种爱情似乎更关注于理想化的黛西,而不是她实际上已经成为的那个女人。

Gatsby showed Daisy his mansion, his grounds, and his extensive collection of shirts, as if trying to demonstrate his worthiness through material possessions. Daisy was moved to tears by the display, caught between her old love for Gatsby and the comfortable life she had built with Tom.

盖茨比向黛西展示他的豪宅、他的场地和他大量的衬衫收藏,似乎试图通过物质财产来证明自己的价值。黛西被这番展示感动得流下了眼泪,陷入了与盖茨比的旧情和与汤姆建立的舒适生活之间。
