[" [http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/soaps/a65356/summer-preview-eastenders.html Summer Preview: EastEnders] ", "Digital Spy". Retrieved 2007-07-13.]

Her appearance was officially announced on 21 October 2006, but the character was seen on a storyboard in a backstage picture in "First" magazine in the week before the announcement.

History

She was first seen in Walford Videos, where she sold Cantonese DVDs to Mickey Miller. She continued doing business with Mickey, and attracted the attention of Mickey's teenage brother Darren, who told her that Mickey wanted to cook dinner for her, when in fact Darren wanted to seduce her. Li tied Darren to his bed, writing "Loser" on his head in lipstick. After that she got together with Mickey, who seems scared of her "sex madness".

She was later seen at Tanya Branning's birthday party, and exposed rival to Mickey's affections, Preeti, who had enhanced her breasts with padding. She later borrowed £200 from Darren and provided stock for Preeti's Ann Summers-style party. Li failed to sell any stock, and ended up fighting with Chelsea.

Li's relationship with Mickey progressed and they both eventually moved into Gus Smith's flat. It was revealed there that Li was growing cannabis, much to Mickey's fury but she told him that it was innocent and that she wouldn't have to do it if he had good work. When Mickey failed to land the job of a post boy at Bradley Branning's office, Li advertised him as an escort behind his back but Gus saw her and informed Mickey. Mickey then warned Li to cancel the ad.

Li left the square when she found out that Mickey wanted more from their relationship. In shock, she packed her bags and left the square.
