Python / Selenium How to click 0,0 of the selected element?

Question

I have:

x = b.find_elements(By.XPATH, '//body'))
if x:
     x[0].click()

When I click body (as an empty space to close some customer select dropdown) it will click at the centre of the element, which actually clicks one of the options from the drop-down list.

Question: How to click (at 0,0) point of the selected element (so it will click in the left top corner of the element)

I’m not sure this can be done with Selenium .click() method but this do can be done with ActionChains.

from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains

action = ActionChains(driver)

action.move_to_element_with_offset(el, 3, 3)
action.click()
action.perform()

This will move the mouse 3 pixels down and 3 pixels right from the upper-left corner of the element el you passing here and perform a click there.
