Chapter 61: Wife Material

Night soon came by as Celia walked towards the shop Jiang had told her to come by. She was wearing a large cloak to cover her body and face since she didn't want anyone to know that she was going to meet Jiang at such an indecent time while also wearing a dress she would never wear in public.

She wanted to run away to Lucas and cry to him about how Jiang was bullying her, but she knew better than to make things even more difficult for Lucas.

Even if she still felt her skin crawl after Jiang touched her, she could only hold in her tears as she finally reached the shop.

Celia timidly opened the door of the shop and let out a sigh of relief as she saw that Jiang wasn't alone.

However, she frowned, seeing that Jiang was with his nasty bunch of friends whom she equally loathed after hearing the rumors surrounding them.

"Ah, there's my beautiful fiance. Come on, Celia. My friends are here to celebrate our engagement becoming official," Jiang said with a wide smile as he took a sip from his wine, though his eyes seemed dangerous to Celia.

Celia tightly held the robes covering her body as she nervously walked over to Jiang and simply stood there as she said in a very low voice, "L-Let's go someplace else..."

Celia was feeling highly uncomfortable in Jiang's presence and even more with four of his friends around, staring at her with weird gazes. She also didn't like the burly and rude men sitting around the tea shop and the stares they were giving her.

"Don't be so rude. My friends are here to congratulate you. Now, come and sit on your fiance's lap," Jiang said, and without waiting for her response, he grabbed her hand and made her sit on his lap.

"Ah!" Celia was startled as Jiang suddenly pulled her onto his lap and could even hear her heartbeat beside her ears.

"I knew Miss Celia was the prettiest in our sect, but I had no idea she would look so beautiful like a fairy up close," A good-looking young man said with awe in his eyes with a subtle hint of lust hidden deep within. He was Dongfan, coming from a decent noble family, and got acquainted with Jiang due to a business deal. People considered him to be a gentleman due to how polite he was, but even then, he found it hard to maintain his manners upon seeing someone as beautiful as Celia, especially since she was wearing such a sexy dress.

"You idiots are forgetting something. We should congratulate brother Jiang for finally scoring the girl he wanted for all these years. I am sure she will be a lovely and dutiful wife to our brother Jiang, hehe," A tall, muscular young man laughed as he brazenly let his eyes roam all over Celia's figure, especially her soft big chest.

His name was Qian, the childhood friend of Jiang and somebody Jiang greatly confided in.

Celia felt repulsed by their insinuating comments and couldn't even say anything back or scold them.

"Of course, she promised me that she would be a very obedient wife. Isn't that right, my love?" Jiang chuckled as he hugged her curvy body in his embrace while kissing her swan-like neck.

Celia let out a low groan of discomfort upon feeling his lips on her skin. But she didn't try to resist since Jiang's words about her promise were a warning to her to not break it.

But she found it even more unsettling that Jiang was taking advantage of her in public. She realized that he tricked her by bringing her here and wanted to just run away before he did something worse.

However, Lucas' face flashed in her head, and she could only suppress the desire to flee as Jiang kissed her lovely shoulders.

"Why don't you give me a kiss, love, and show my friends how much of a wife material you are?" Jiang said as he turned her red face in his direction while his friends eagerly watched on.
