As Bai Ling's grip tightened around Celia's waist, she couldn't help but feel trapped and uneasy.
Her heart pounded against her chest as she glanced at her son sitting just a few feet away and stopped his hand and whispered, "I..I think we can do that once Xulan's class is over, Lord Bai," She tried to maintain her voice as calm as possible to not make it seem like she was offending him or being rude.
She already knew Jiang sent her here to satisfy Bai Ling just like how Jiang usually wants her to do whenever he gets potential investors for new business ventures.
She had gotten used to it to the point that she has numbed herself to it and simply let herself drown in the momentary release whenever she goes through it.
But never before had she done it with her son around. She had always been careful to make sure she would never engage in such things with Xulan around.
She had always striven to keep him away from all evil that surrounded her.But just as Celia finished speaking, Bai Ling's grip on her waist only tightened further, pulling her closer until their faces were just an inch apart.
"Now, my Celia," Bai Ling began, his smile still charming despite the intimidating aura that was enveloping her, "You shouldn't be that rude by telling your son's Master what he should do or when he should do things."
Celia became nervous yet said in a calm and polite voice, "Lord Bai please…I wasn't trying to–"
"Shh…"
Celia's words came to an abrupt stop when Bai Long pressed his finger against her lips and whispered. "I am not going to force you to do anything. But since you made my mood sour by being rude then I won't feel like teaching your son and will be sending him back. So when his father asks why I didn't teach Xulan, what do you want me to say to him, hm?"
Celia's heart thumped against her chest as she realised her worst fears came true. She could see it in his eyes that he was far more vicious than he made himself appear.
If Jiang thinks she or Xulan disappointed Bai Long then he would punish Xulan as well instead of only her.
She remembered the times whenever Jiang punished Xulan and it wasn't something she could bear to see again.
She had ever since been so careful and been obedient to Jiang to make sure Xulan would be safe and happy.
So she can't stop doing that now.
Knowing she had no choice she lowered her hand and said in a pleading tone, "Okay…I will do what you want but please…l don't want my son to get disturbed because of that."
Lucas smiled as he said. "Don't you worry about me. I won't do anything to disturb your son while he is training before us. But you should be careful too."
Celia blinked wondering what he meant by that.
"Now to get to know each other better, why don't you first…show me your bra so that I can know what your favourite color is?"
It suddenly struck Celia as she understood what he meant earlier.
He was going to touch her and she would have to be careful to not make any noise before Xulan.
But such a difficulty made her anxious as she didn't know if she could be that careful.
Yet she was also greatly determined to not let Xulan find out.
"You better be fast because his meditation won't last too long and I might need some time to get to know you real good," Lucas said with a wink.
Celia's face reddened as her trembling fingers began to undo her dress and began to pull it down towards her pelvis.
As she lowered her upper garment down, the intricate lacework of her red bra hugged every curve of Celia's bosom, creating a mesmerizing display that left no doubt about the voluptuousness hidden beneath.
Her full breasts swelled beautifully within the cups, held tight by the lacy bands that crisscrossed her chest. The plunging neckline of the bra exposed a tantalizing expanse of cleavage, inviting any admirer to indulge themselves in the spectacle.
Lucas watched avidly, the bra clinging tightly to her soft flesh. His gaze lingered on the deep crevice between her breasts, making Celia flush at the intensity of his scrutiny.
"Mhn!~" But her thoughts came to an abrupt stop when Bai Ling, with a sudden move, reached out and he roughly cupped one of her nipples through the sheer lace, causing Celia to gasp softly in response, covering her mouth quickly.
"Beautiful," Lucas murmured, tracing lazy circles around her nipple with the pad of his thumb, "Nobody would believe you are the mother of three grown boys after seeing you and feeling your fine body. I wonder how much prettier you must have looked when you were younger."
"Lord Bai f-flatters me too much, mhn~" Celia whispered with an awkward smile while trying to calm down her nerves and glancing at Xulan from time to time in worry.
But he was twisting, squeezing and pulling her nipple so hard, it was sending goosebumps over her skin and blood to rush to her face.
"Oh no no. I am not that shallow to flatter without some sincerity. But I can't help but feel that your first lover, your childhood friend whom Jiang talked about must have felt truly lucky when you became his girlfriend. So it only makes me curious why he abandoned you."
Celia's heart skipped a beat as his words triggered deeply buried memories, her green eyes becoming distant.
"So why don't you tell me what happened or who was really in the wrong."
Celia's eyes widened as her lips quivered for a moment. "I-I don't think-Ah!"
Celia's brows raised in shock when Bai Ling suddenly grabbed her wrists, locked her arms behind her back and pulled her up to make her sit before him, in between his legs.
Her pulse raced as he pulled her backwards by her wrists, letting her back press against his chest as he squeezed both of her breasts hard.
"MnM~" Celia grimaced in a mix of pain and pleasure, holding in her moan as she felt him placing his chin on her shoulder, "I think that telling me the story of your childhood friend would be a good start to get to know you better, don't you think?" Lucas asked with a smooth smile while Celia's face began to fill with a sense of anxiety she had never felt before in a long time.
