事实上,这种表情类似于to have a glint in one's eye ,意思是表达隐藏的情绪、动机和目标的面部表情。在这里,老爷子不喜欢陌生人照顾孙女,所以炫耀对方是一种体现自己感情的姿态。例子: The thief looked at the man's watch with a subtle glint in his eye. (小偷对着那个人的手表眨了眨眼。) 例子: He congratulated me on my promotion, but I could tell from the glint in his eye that he was unhappy about it. (他祝贺我升职,但眼中流露出不满的神色。)
