Lust or anger, emotions will definitely arise. Through meditation, you manage them, not to suppress them.
The more you suppress, the more persistent they will be.

If mindfulness is practised, lust & anger will not arise.
Cittanupassana (3rd tetrad of satipatthana) does not refer to the arising of lust & anger from sense experience but refers to a very deep state of non-thinking samadhi when the energies of subtle underlying tendencies come to the surface.
Very few Buddhists have ever reached the level of cittanupassana in meditation. The 'cittanupassana' particularly taught in Western vipassana is not really cittanupassana.
