React Native debugger with device on VPN

Question

My application on Android relies on VPN connection, hence I can't enter "React Native Debug" after connecting device with VPN.

Things I have tried: (but failed)

1. Without VPN established, I can always debug or reload my application
2. Tried vice versa way of entering debug mode first then establish VPN. Once VPN is established, the connection between app and laptop is disconnected.

Any idea or direction I can look into?
