My host OS (VM) didn't get the connection from WiFi but my Proxmox was connected

I just installed an OS on top of PVE (MacOS Big Sur to be precise). I have a Realtek WiFi dongle USB (RTL8188EU). I have configured my /etc/network/interfaces file with wlan interface set to dhcp with wpa-ssid and wpa-key enabled as well as using allow-hotplug. But if I started my VM, booting up and entered the OS. I found that my OS self-assigned the IP address from vmxnet3 ethernet, although my Proxmox in CLI has connected to the internet.

I have followed the WLAN documentation on Proxmox, but none of them working with the OS :(

Please help, I'm a newbie and didn't know how to bridging the connection between Proxmox and the VM (vmxnet3 ethernet cable) on the OS.

Thanks in advance!

that sounds a bit weird, how does you /etc/network/interfaces look like?
