Helium does not follow the "drop the one" rule because it has a full outer electron shell with two electrons, making it stable and not needing to lose or gain electrons to achieve a stable configuration.

Does lithium follow the octet rule?

Sort of. Lithium loses one electron in order to achieve the noble gas configuration of helium, which has only two valence electrons in its 1s sublevel. The octet rule refers to the fact that atoms share or transfer electrons in order to achieve a noble gas configuration with eight valence electrons, called an octet. Helium is an exception to the rule.
