Originally, Li Zhiyuan just wanted Ali to help with some simple tasks. But after discovering how quickly Ali learned and the finesse with which she worked, he started treating her as his official co-worker.
To some extent, Li Zhiyuan had to admit that Ali’s craft skills were even superior to his own.
The two spent the whole day in this atmosphere, having a stronger interactive feeling than when they read books together, but it resulted in Ali getting all grubby.
