Look the other way 视而不见
    2023-05-04  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

A: They’re not really entitled to a discount but the sales manager decided to look the other way.

B: I guess she’s just eager to sell, since many other brands are offering discounts to the general public.

Note: This idiom means “to deliberately overlook something, especially something of an illicit nature.” It’s easy to understand: If someone looks the other way, they deliberately ignore something bad that is happening when they should be trying to deal with it or stop it. For example: He knew the student was cheating but decided to look the other way.
