As this year's western Valentine's Day coincides with the Chinese Lantern Festival, and the date Feb. 14, 2014 is pronounced similarly with "Love you for a lifetime, love me for a lifetime" in Chinese, many couples have chosen this particular day to apply for the marriage certificate. It is expected that the number of marriage registration in Beijing today will set a new record in history.
