Once you convert to LAP, then that AP act as another AP on your DC site. So users will get IP from DC switch where you connect your WLC.
This is called Local Mode AP deployment.
If you really want to keep wireless user traffic terminate at TSC, you can do that as well. This mode is called FlexConnect, where only AP control traffic come to WLC, where as data traffic terminate at locally in a branch. Read below design guide on FlexConnect

As long as that WAN connection is secure (ie not over public internet), you can still run local mode at the other side without majour issue.
Disadvantage is even two wireless users communicate at TSC site, that traffic has to go through your central WLC at DC (hair pinning across your WAN link). If you have limited bandwidth, I would go with FlexConnect. If bandwidth is not an issue, local mode would simplify the deployment
