Two days ago, one of my neighbors told me that she had arrived in Naning and asked me to keep her two cats. Maybe she thought beforehand I wouldn’t mind this. I didn’t want to unauthorized enter her room as well as let outside cold wind blow into my room when I opened my door, so when I got home I took these two cats to my room. So when the New Year comes, I celebrate the New Year with these two cats. The cats are different from the ones I was familiar with before. They didn’t make trouble, and did not scratch or bite. At first, the cats were very curious about my room and ran around in the room-it seemed there were unknown places everywhere in my room. They always liked to go back places, for example, the corner behind my bed, so they caused dust. I thought I should clean the whole room the next day. I just finished cleaning the room and took this moment to relocate my furniture, and tidy everything up.

Two days ago, I finally watched the Qingyaji movie and I think it is beautiful. Under a big magic background, magic masters detected murder cases. There are some familiar things between Qingyaji and Yaomaozhuan: they both are related to magic, mystery and murder. But compared with Yaomaozhuan, the difference is that there is a big monster in Qingyaji damaging the human world. The protagonist needs to find who is the murderer, prevent monsters, and defeat his own weaknesses. Otherwise, the world will be destroyed. This movie inspired me to write a short novel the next time about magic, legendary and deities.

After the movie, I went home to feed the cats. because I never kept cats so that they didn’t eat the food I prepared for. At 2 am the middle of the night, I suddenly knew the mistakes I made, and finally I got some delicious food for them.

Corrections

I didn’t want to unauthorized enter her room without authorization as well as let outside cold wind blow into my room when I opened my door, so when I got home I took these two cats to my room.

So when the New Year comes, I will celebrate the New Year with these two cats.

They didn’t make trouble, and did not scratch or bite.

They always liked to go back placeehind things, for example, the corner behind my bed, so they caused dust.

I know exactly what you mean by 'back places' (because my cats also love these places), but there isn't really a phrase for that in English that is a direct translation.

I just finished cleaning the room and took this moment to relocatarrange my furniture, and tidy everything up.

The word 'relocate' suggests that you took your furniture to a different place (for example, to a different apartment). If what you mean is to move the pieces around to different places in the same room, 'rearrange' is the more usual word for this.

Two days ago, I finally watched the Qingyaji movie and I think it is beautiful.

Under a big magicAgainst an epic fantasy background, magic masters detecinvestigated murder cases.

So for 'big magic' I believe you mean the genre of the movie - 'epic fantasy' or 'fantasy' would be how this sort of movie would be described in English.
We usually say things are 'against a background' - in this case 'against' means 'next to' or 'in front of' ( in other cases 'against' means 'opposing')
I changed 'detected' to 'investigated' because, to me, saying 'they detected something' sounds more like 'they became aware of the existence of something', whereas saying 'they investigated something' is more like 'they looked for information about something'.

There are some fasimiliar things between Qingyaji and Yaomaozhuan: they both are related to magic, mystery and murder.

The protagonist needs to find who is the murderer, prevent monsters, and defeat his own weaknesses.

Otherwise, the world will be destroyed.

After the movie, I went home to feed the cats.

bBecause I never kept cats so that, they didn’t eat the food I prepared for them.

Yeah - my cats are very picky about their food. I think they just refuse the food to irritate me!

Take care of is temporary. Keep would mean you keep them forever. Depends on what you mean.

Maybe she thought beforehand I wouldn’t mind this.

I didn’t want to unauthorized enter her room as well aswithout permission or let outside cold wind blow into my room when I opened my door, so when I got home I took these two cats to my room.

They didn’t makeget into trouble, and did not scratch or bite.

Just more natural.

At first, the cats were very curious about my room and ran around in the room-i. It seemed there were unknown places everywhere in my room.

They always liked to go back plsmall spaces, for example, the corner behind my bed, so they caused dust.

Two days ago, I finally watched the Qingyaji movie and I thinkought it is beautiful.

I don't know why but past tense makes more sense. It's like you were watching the movie and thought it was beautiful while you were watching it.

Under a big magic background, magic masters detected murder cases.

are magic masters like wizards?
