Fortunately, thanks to God, she not only found her mother, but also her father was out of danger and returned to her side.

Kind people survive unscathed, while bad people are about to be punished.

Everything seems to be getting better.

Shu Ying wiped the sweat from her forehead, left a pot of spiritual spring water for He Jiajun, and hurried home without lingering.

The next morning, Shu Ying had just gotten up, preparing to go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to handle some work and ask for leave.

After all, although my parents' condition isn't too serious, they still need to be taken care of.

Although Xie Zhiyan did his best, his job meant he wasn't always free, his training tasks were heavy, and he might have to go on a mission any day.

We still need her to take care of our parents.

Shu Ying felt a little embarrassed to ask for leave now.

After all, she had only recently joined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and her taking leave now inevitably makes people think that there is something wrong with her work attitude.

However, before Shu Ying could even set off for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry called her first.

Director Wu, having somehow learned about her family situation, first expressed his concern and then directly stated that after discussions among several leaders, it was decided to grant her a month-long leave so that she could rest at home and take care of her parents.

If a month's vacation isn't enough, you can even call the department to apply for an extension.

Shu Ying held the phone receiver, almost thinking she had misheard.

"Director Wu, but I've only just started this job..."

Director Wu smiled.

"What's the big deal? We've all witnessed your abilities, and our Ministry of Foreign Affairs has always been known for its humanistic care for its colleagues."

“For events like your parents’ illness, you should definitely be given leave. Besides, you made such a great contribution to the department before, and the leaders already feel indebted to you for not promoting you. Giving you a month’s leave is nothing.”

"However, if we need any help during the holidays, we'll still need to contact you. I wonder if you..."

Shu Ying immediately agreed.

"Director Wu, please rest assured, just let me know if you need anything, and I will do my best."

Director Wu offered a few more words of concern, instructing Shu Ying to feel free to contact her workplace if she needed anything.

Shu Ying agreed to everything, hung up the phone, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Director Wu proactively called to give her a day off. Although Shu Ying felt flattered, it did indeed relieve her current predicament.

Finally, I can wholeheartedly take good care of my parents.

After breakfast, Xie Mingzhu took the initiative to take the two children to school and left with them.

The soup that Shuying made for her parents with spring water was almost finished.

She poured the soup from the clay pot into a thermos, and also prepared a portion for He Jiajun.

Just as Shu Ying was preparing the soup and getting ready to leave, Xie Zhiyan returned from his morning training session.

Shu Ying glanced at his slightly bluish eyes and frowned with a pang of heartache.

"You didn't sleep much all night and went straight to early morning training, did you?"

Xie Zhiyan smiled to hide his embarrassment and said nothing.

But Shu Ying knows him better than anyone else right now, and knowing that he looks like this is tantamount to acquiescing.

Feeling sorry for Xie Zhiyan, Shu Ying quickly served him a bowl of soup as well.

"Are you stupid? My mom's condition has stabilized now. I agreed to stay there for you just in case. If my mom needs your help at night, you can get up and help her then. Why do you have to stay there all night?"
