I got my solution. here is my bash code to solve this issue:

if [ ! -d "/usr/share/dotnet" ]; then
    sudo mkdir /usr/share/dotnet
fi
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/dotnet /usr/share/dotnet/dotnet

my solution may cause some more problems. Anyway to make this working with /usr/bin/dotnet ?

Do the docs here help workaround this issue? https://github.com/dotnet/vscode-dotnet-runtime/blob/main/Documentation/troubleshooting-runtime.md#manually-installing-net

Thanks. I removed all of them and installed all by following these issues at dotnet/core#7699 and dotnet/sdk#27129 .
Here is my bash code that solves all:

sudo apt remove --purge --autoremove 'aspnetcore*' 'dotnet*' 'netstandard*' 'powershell*'
sudo apt autoremove
sudo apt autoclean
sudo apt update

What I did is to uninstall all microsoft related packages at first, set apt preferences for dotnet* and aspnet* and netstandard*, and install all again. Simple, right....
