The Geeky Girl's
The Part 38

After that day, now every day when Xixi meets Leon at the college, they return like they didn't know each other, even Xixi was no longer sitting at the very back of the row in the classroom as usual.

Although the wound was no longer visible, but the pain due to the frozen blood on Xixi's palm due to being pierced by an ice needle, made it a little difficult when doing things with her right hand.

Likewise with today, Xixi chose to use her mobile phone to record what the lecturer said in front of the class. Because he can't use his right hand.

"Xixi, after this we go to the cafeteria. I'm so hungry." Lulu whispers.

Xixi nodded in response to Lulu's remark.

From behind Leon looked at Xixi who was sitting several chairs in front of him, but he did not know if Xixi recorded what the lecturer said with a cell phone on her desk. He just thought, Xixi deliberately put the phone just like that.

After the subjects finished and the lecturer came out, Xixi tidied up her book.

Bruouk

One of Xixi's books falls on the floor, Xixi picks up the book and Leon sees it. But Leon frowned as Xixi took the book with her left hand, but it fell to the right.

"You done yet?" Ask Lulu.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Then come on."

Xixi nodded, after putting the phone into her jacket pocket, Xixi and Lulu walked out of the classroom and walked towards the campus cafeteria.

In the campus cafeteria, Xixi and Lulu bought some food they wanted to eat.

"Ep... I'm sorry, can I replace these chopsticks with forks?" Xixi said to the officer guarding the canteen.

"certain." Said the canteen officer.

Leon who was standing at the door of the canteen saw the canteen clerk replacing the chopsticks on the Xixi tray with a fork.

"Didn't he rather eat noodles with chopsticks, why replace them with forks?" Leon muttered in question.

"Come, let me help you carry your tray." Said Lulu, who had put her tray on the table.

"Thank you."

Xixi's palm will indeed feel very painful when lifting anything. And he had to feel that until the medicine he was taking made the frozen blood that was on his palm disappear.

Xixi and Lulu sat in the canteen chair, and they enjoyed their meal.

"Xixi, are your hands hurting? I saw you eating your noodles with a fork, not as usual." Said one of the students who saw Xixi using a fork.

Xixi looked at her right hand and nodded "Yes, my hand is cramping."

"Oh so."

Xixi.

Leon saw Xixi's palm holding a fork, there was a red hole in the palm.

"That's...."

Leon recalled the moment he threw out his hand and made Xixi fall 4 days ago. He faintly saw there were blood stains on Xixi's palm.

"It was impossible, back then there was no broken glass or pebbles because the ground was covered in snow." Mumbled Leon.

Lulu looked at Xixi who was staring at her right hand.

"Has the blood clot not gone yet?" Ask Xixi.

"I've taken the medicine the doctor gave me, and the doctor said it's going to go away soon."

"Does it hurt? It's been almost a week."

"Not really, only when exposed to warm water when I take a shower it hurts. Maybe it's because the blood clot reacted when it was exposed to warm water."

Braaa

Xixi and Lulu are shocked when her desk is suddenly kicked by a tray.

"Leon, what are you doing here?" Lulu asked Leon who had already kicked their table.

Leon did not answer Lulu's question, he stared fixedly at Xixi.

Xixi just kept quiet, because she didn't want to make things even more murky.

"Tell me, what happened to your hand?" Said Leon who was still staring at Xixi.

"Nothing happened, just cramping." Xixi.

"Xixi, don't lie to me."

"Young master Damian, whether something happens with my hands or not, it's none of your business."

"Cicilia."

"Lulu, let's go." Xixi said to Lulu.

Lulu nodded.

Xixi who did not want to argue with Leon for too long stood up and walked away from the canteen. While Lulu who was walking behind Xixi looked at Leon with annoyance and anger before leaving the canteen and catching up with Xixi.

Leon clenched his hands, he was always speechless as Xixi spoke if it was none of her business.

"Bw*al!" Grumpy Leon.

***

In the afternoon Leon who was not in the mood to attend lessons, went to see Joseph who was in the cafe not far from the campus.

"What's wrong, tumben once you've skipped?" Ask Joseph.

"I'm just lazy."

Oh right, I heard you pushed Xixi a few days ago and made her hand hurt, because she didn't tell you about her plans for revenge on Gabriel's family."

"I didn't push it, I just..... You, you said Xixi's hand was hurt?"

Joseph nodded "Lulu said the blood on her palm was partially frozen from being pierced by an ice needle when she fell, and that made it very difficult to perform activities as usual."

Leon was silent, he remembered if he saw any bloodstains on Xixi's palm when she fell from Leon's hand a few days ago. Leon also sees Xixi taking her falling book with her left hand, also seeing her eating noodles with a fork today.

"Leon, I know you're very upset with Xixi. But Xixi did that for your own good, you've only been leading the company for a few months, and you've gained the trust of many clients. So she won't make you focus on her work."

Leon was stunned, he didn't think that Xixi was worried about him and the company he was leading.

"She asked for my help too because she was forced to, after all I only helped a little to suppress Gabriel's family-owned company. Haahh, I'm just surprised by your arrogant nature that won't listen to her explanation, and instead hurt her."

Leon clenched his hand "So the wound he felt right now was because of me, who had thrown his hand so hard that he fell down. I hurt him."

Joseph saw the change in the face of his friend, he knew that Leon had not known that Xixi was injured because of him.

"Go and apologize to him, he did it just because he didn't want to destroy your company and wanted to protect your reputation in front of your clients." Said Joseph.

"Thank you." Said Leon before he left the cafe.

Leon feels that he is a fool, because he does not want to listen to what Xixi says. He would rather hurt her to cover up his emotions that he could not stand.

Leon quickly drove his car to Xixi's house, although he knew Xixi was not home at the moment because she had not returned from campus.

"Stupid, stupid! You're a fool, Leon!" Leon repeatedly hit the steering wheel to vent his anger.

Arriving at Xixi's house, Leon directly pressed the house bell several times.

chequeleked

A housekeeper Xixi opens the door for Leon.

"Sir, you...."

"I'm Xixi's friend."

"But young lady hasn't come home yet."

"I know, I'll wait for him here."

"Alright, please. I'll tell the madam first."

"Yes, thank you."

After the maid left, Leon sat down on the sofa in the living room. Shortly thereafter, Lady William arrived.

"Leon." Said mrs William.

"Good day aunt."

"Yes, aren't you going home with Xixi?"

"No aunt, today I did not attend the last course and deliberately came here."

"What's wrong, you guys got into a fight?"

Leon quiet.

Lady William sat in front of Leon "You two are young, there must be a lot of misunderstandings going on between the two of you later, you two, so you should always keep your emotions in check and not be easily swayed by other people's speech."

"Yes aunt, thank you."

"Auntie's glad you're close to Xixi, because after all this time, Xixi's finally willing to open her heart to someone else."

Leon was silent, he knew Xixi had been pretending to be a geeky woman, and there would be no men willing to approach her. He closed his heart for so long and only opened it.

But the person who opened his heart hurt him many times.

The sound of the roar of the car rang out, mistress William saw her daughter coming out of the car.

"She's home, speak carefully. Aunty knows you can solve both of your problems with a cold head."

"Thank you aunt."

Lady William nodded, then she stood up and left Leon alone in the living room.

Xixi stopped stepping, she saw a car she knew parked in front of her house.

"Why is he here?" Xixi Mumbled.

With his bag Xixi walked back to his house.

"Why are you here?" Xixi asked after seeing Leon sitting in the living room.

Leon did not reply, he looked at Xixi's palm which looked even paler and even somewhat bluish.

"Why don't you tell me that palm...."

"It's just a small wound, it's okay. You don't have to think about it."

"Cicilia, how long are you going to act like that to me?"

Xixi herself does not know until when she will ignore, and avoid the innocent Leon.

Leon stood up and walked over to Xixi.

"Until when are you gonna shut up and tell me nothing?" Said Leon in a softer tone.

"It's not...."

Grebs

Leon hugged Xixi tightly "Stop saying if it's none of my business, from now on everything related to you will be my business! Do you understand Cicilia William?"

Xixi was speechless, she could not even push Leon's body which was currently holding her.

"My answer." Said Leon again.

Xixi nodded her head in response to Leon's words.

Leon who felt Xixi's nodding head movements, hugged her tighter and kissed her shoulder.

"Sorry for getting you hurt."

"It's not your fault."

Leon let go of his embrace then looked fixedly at Xixi.

"I will be your right hand before your hand is healed, for I have wounded it."

Xixi nodded and smiled.

Leon grabbed Xixi's right hand and kissed the pale palm gently.

"I love you so much, Cicilia, I'm sorry to hurt you." Leon kissed Xixi.

Xixi smiles and feels happy because Leon really loves her.
