St. Valentine's Day (Valentine's Day): February 14
In the 3rd century AD, the Roman emperor issued a decree prohibiting marriage in order to prevent married men from leaving home to serve as soldiers. However, Bishop Hualuting still violated the emperor's will and secretly held weddings for young people. He was imprisoned and died in prison on February 14, 273 AD. In order to commemorate him, later generations designated the day of his martyrdom as "Hualun Pavilion Day", which later became a familiar Valentine's Day to the world. In Western tradition, young people are the protagonists of Hualun Pavilion Day. They solemnly choose gifts and flowers for their lovers on this festival to express their love. According to ancient legends, infatuated girls will put laurel leaves on their pillows the night before Hualunting Day, hoping to meet their sweethearts in their dreams. In the United States, Valentine's Day is not only a holiday for young people, but also for relatives and friends to send small gifts to each other to express feelings and enhance friendship. Many businesses specialize in selling gifts such as heart-shaped chocolate candies, red roses tied with ribbons, and tulip bouquets, and a variety of Valentine's cards are even more dazzling. For many Asian women, this day is particularly important because despite the traditional and conservative culture, social values generally accept that girls take the initiative to show affection to the person they like on this day.
White Day: March 14

In the East, after a girl expresses her affection by giving a gift to a boy on February 14, if the other person also has the same affection or affection, he will give the girl a Valentine's gift in return on March 14. It means that they are close to each other; if the boy has no feelings for the girl, just ignore this day deliberately, which is regarded as a tactful rejection. For lovers who are already together, this day is a day to give each other Valentine's Day gifts in return.
