I Am Already A Queen

Chapter 69: Chapter 69: Mentioned About The Twin Sister Again

Chen Xiaoqing tilted her head slightly, her voice laced with obvious mockery as she added, "Well, I suppose that’s entirely understandable. It does not exactly seem like you are particularly close to your eldest brother anyway, is it?"

Her words were clearly and heavily meant to publicly provoke Jiang Yanna’s status.

"Chen Xiaoqing, what exactly do you mean by that insinuation? Watch your mouth." Jin Zexi immediately glared at her, stepping in to defend her friend.

"What?" Chen Xiaoqing shrugged innocently, tossing her hair. "I am simply stating a well-known fact. Am I wrong?"

Ignoring the brewing, petty argument between the two, Jiang Yanna heavily focused on the core piece of information that actually mattered.

"Are you genuinely saying my eldest brother has a girlfriend?" Jiang Yanna asked, forcing her voice back into a calm, gentle frequency, although her manicured fingers quietly tightened into fists beneath the table. "Where exactly did you hear such news? Who started spreading that ridiculous rumour?"

"My own brother told me." Chen Xiaoqing answered casually, pleased to have the spotlight. "He happened to see your eldest brother having an incredibly intimate lunch with a beautiful young woman at Maison Dorée today. He said she is actually quite pretty."

"I think your brother completely misunderstood the situation. She might simply be one of my eldest brother’s high-level business partners or an important international client." Jiang Yanna smiled gently, though a cold dread began to pool in her stomach.

"Oh... Really?" Chen Xiaoqing raised a sceptical eyebrow. "My brother said your eldest brother treated that woman completely differently from everyone else. According to him, it was not his usual cold, business-like attitude at all. He has never seen your brother behave so softly around a woman before."

Jiang Yanna remained dead silent, her heart dropping. A faint, suffocating feeling of uneasiness slowly crept into her mind. Maison Dorée... today? Her brother had skipped work to take a woman to lunch?

"Oh!" Chen Xiaoqing suddenly slapped her own forehead, a dramatic gasp escaping her lips. "Silly me. I completely forgot! My brother actually took a sneaky photo of the two of them and sent it to me."

The surrounding girls in the group immediately became hyper-excited, crowding closer.

"Really?"

"Quick! Pull it out and let us see!"

"I want to see what his type is, too!"

Chen Xiaoqing smugly took out her luxury phone, opened the high-resolution photo her brother had snapped earlier at the restaurant, and proudly turned the screen to show everyone gathered around.

"That’s definitely not his girlfriend." The very first person to instantly refute the explosive claim was Jin Zexi, who had leaned in to look.

"Huh?" Chen Xiaoqing looked surprised, her eyebrows drawing together before she turned her gaze back toward Jiang Yanna. "Is that true, Yanna?"

"Of course it is." Jin Zexi answered confidently before Jiang Yanna even had a physical chance to open her mouth. "They are biological siblings."

"Siblings?" Chen Xiaoqing frowned in deep confusion, pulling the phone back to look at the striking facial features of the girl in the photo again. "Wait... I have never seen her before in my life. Why has she suddenly appeared out of nowhere?"

Her curiosity and gossip instincts immediately grew even stronger. She could smell blood in the water. She instinctively felt that there was an incredibly juicy, hidden family scandal buried beneath this sudden revelation.

"She is my fraternal twin sister." Jiang Yanna finally explained, smoothly weaving her words as she forced a soft, sweet, and incredibly pitiable smile onto her face. "She only returned to our family household very recently. She had been quietly living far away in the deep countryside because she suffered from extremely poor health when she was younger."

The wealthy girls who had never heard a single whisper about the matter were visibly taken aback. None of them had ever known that the prestigious Jiang Family supposedly possessed a pair of twin daughters. Naturally, hearing such completely unexpected news out of the blue made them question whether the story was actually a carefully constructed lie.

"You suddenly have a twin sister? Then why on earth have you never mentioned her presence before?" Chen Xiaoqing probed ruthlessly, her sharp eyes narrowing as she refused to let the convenient matter go.

"Why does Yanna have to report every single detail about her private family matters to you? Who exactly are you to her?" Jin Zexi immediately stepped forward, crossing her arms to fiercely defend Jiang Yanna.

"Well, Yanna has always happily talked about her family’s wealth and business before." Another socialite, Wu Xiner, chimed in thoughtfully, tapping her chin. "That’s exactly why this whole thing feels incredibly strange. She supposedly has a fraternal twin sister, yet she has never mentioned her existence even once in all these years. It really feels as if this random twin sister just suddenly materialised out of thin air today."

"Exactly!" Chen Xiaoqing nodded in triumphant agreement, her smirk widening.

For a terrifying, brief moment, Jiang Yanna’s mind went entirely blank, and she did not know how she should safely respond without exposing the cracks in her story.

Seeing her subtle, panicked hesitation, the triumphant smile on Chen Xiaoqing’s face grew significantly wider, sensing she had struck a hidden nerve.

"Actually, now that I look at the photo, I noticed something else that’s rather fascinating." Chen Xiaoqing said, her voice dripping with artificial sweetness. She deliberately paused for dramatic effect, carefully observing every micro-expression and subtle twitch on Jiang Yanna’s pale face before slowly continuing, "Your twin sister shares quite a few strikingly similar facial features with your eldest brother, Jiang Suhan. In fact, if people take a closer look, they can easily tell the two of them are directly related by blood. Both of them clearly inherited several distinct features from your father, Uncle Jiang. As for your younger brother, Chinan, he obviously resembles your mother much more. But as for you, Yanna..."
