"What do you think you're doing?" Min-seo's voice cut through the air, his tone firm and commanding as he confronted the mers.
"First of all, it's Scholar Li for you guys," Min-seo's eyes narrowed slightly as he addressed the mers, his voice carrying a firmness that brooked no disrespect, correcting them sternly, emphasizing the respect due to Jiho.
"And second, we are her husbands, so of course, it matters to us if you want to peek at our wife."
