In a letter of thanks he wrote to the university, Zhao Xinguo stated: "We're very touched that these students care about elderly people like us. My wife is cheerful, and she enjoyed chatting with the young people. It was the first time that she wore makeup".

The students have witnessed love that has stood the test of time — whether it be through surviving wars, natural disasters, or leading a simple life together. This has taught the young people the true meaning of commitment.

One of the volunteers, Chen Jiali, recalled a particularly touching moment during the project when the students photographed a couple who worked as sanitation workers.

"They had a traditional marriage in which they rarely expressed their love and affection for each other. However, with our encouragement, the man finally held his wife's hand to say 'I love you'. She shed tears of happiness," Chen said.
