Family and friends, yet not very familiar—the subtext is too obvious, isn't it? Someone has clearly come under the guise of her relatives.
A double meaning. Rana wasn't particularly loyal; she almost effortlessly chose to distance herself.
And Gao Yi mentioning Mossad—that left no room for negotiation.
Rana pondered for a moment, then shook her head subtly. She only gazed at Gao Yi, though there was a hint of peculiarity in her eyes.
"It's not Mossad. Mossad... wouldn't need to do this."
Gao Yi considered briefly, then his heart sank in shock.
Could it be? No, it couldn't be! It really couldn't be!
Gao Yi remained calm as he asked, "So it's colleagues from the Europe Department then?"
Rana didn't respond; she simply lowered her head.
Gao Yi was misled by Rana's answer due to her overly relaxed demeanor, causing him to misjudge the situation.
If it were Mossad agents looking for Rana, it wouldn't be a big issue. Even if the CIA found out, they wouldn't react too drastically.
