Li Hongqi changed his position from kneeling to sitting and quietly looked up to gauge the expressions of the three people in the room. He weighed his options and figured it would be best to tell the story himself. If he could make his story sound pitiful enough, innocent enough, and out of necessity, his parents would surely help him. So, Li Hongqi sat up straight, then lunged forward again to hug his father Li's thighs, and began to recount the story of writing the denunciation letter to his sister-in-law.
Of course, in his own words, he was just young and impulsive, provoked by someone with intentions into writing the denunciation letter against his sister-in-law. He hadn't thought much about it at the time; his head was hot, and he did what he was told to do. But soon after, he regretted it and wanted to retract the letter. But once the letter was submitted, it couldn't be taken back just by asking.
