While many young people celebrate Valentine's Day with roses and candlelit dinners, an elderly couple in Shenyang in northeast China's Liaoning Province is also marking the day in true romantic style. The married couple has been together for 75 years and shared their secrets of keeping their love alive.

97-year-old Sun Zhurong and her 103-year-old husband Xu Xiangxin have been married for 75 years. Time has not diminished their love for each other. For them, each day is spent like Valentine's Day.

Xu Xiangxin, husban, 103 year old, said "Everyday, I massage my wife's head to make her feel comfortable and help her breathing."

Sun Zhurong, wife, 97 year old, said "I'm happy when he is happy. I'm sad when he is sad.

Playing the piano, singing and dancing are part of the doting couple's daily routine.

Despite being a centenarian, Grandpa Xu is still as romantic as he was in his younger days. On Valentine's Day he prepared a special gift for his lifelong soul mate.

Xu Xiangxin said "Today is Valentine's Day. You are my true love. I really love you, now and forever."

Kissing each other and saying I love you, the couple hopes to spend many more happy years together.
