"Lady of the night" = Qúy cô ban đêm -> Lối nói giảm nói tránh để chỉ về gái bao/gái mại dâm.
Ví dụ
Gertrude becomes a lady of the night on Friday and Saturday evenings. The rest of the week she's a breakfast, brunch (bữa nửa buổi sáng và trưa gộp lại) and lunch place.
A perfect example of this would be Karla Crome's Tourmaline Larou, who was a renowned (có tiếng, lừng danh) love poet in her homeland but is forced (bất đắc dĩ, bị ép) to become a lady of the night in a house of ill repute (tiếng xấu).
Remarkably (rõ rệt, đáng chú ý), I’ve found that these “ladies of the night” are, in my long experience and well-thought-out opinion, every bit as “innocent” as the children I teach by day. We all know they were once sweet little elementary school children themselves. Every bit as much as you or me, they once held hopes and dreams, too.
