This beautiful Love Song from the Chinese composer Wanghua Chu gives you many opportunities to explore other than those written on the page, amounts of slowing down into the pauses, dynamics, rubato, to name but a few. For example in this video, the 3 pause bars 26-28 incorporate a slight diminuendo with a ritardando up until the pause.

This piece is entitled "Love Song" - so try to think of it as a "song" - with breaths.

Pedal should be used extensively to create colour and atmosphere, changing usually, but not always every half bar.

In the first half especially keep the LH very much in the background allowing the romantic RH tune to sing out. The richer harmonies of  the second half could afford more pedal particularly in the "appassionato" section from bar 31 (2:10).
