Jan. 14, 2006
Dear Tom Johnson,
First of all, thank you for inviting me to attend your birthday party to be held on Jan 20, 2006. I would like to accept your warm invitation but I can not due to an earlier appointment.
Two weeks ago, I made an appointment with one of my high-school classmates. He will accompany his mother who suffers from cancer to Beijing to see a doctor. Since he is a stranger in Beijing, he asks me for help and I have consented.
Anyway I feel sorry for disappointing you. However, please wait to receive my surprising gift for you by EMS on your birthday. Many Happiness returns of the day!
Sincerely yours,
Li Ming
