In java, there is "AsynchronousSocketChannel" class. We can use it to accept a socket which is not blocking. I know there is a method named "Socket.BeginConnect". But I don't know if it is a non-blocking method. Or it is just a blocking method in another thread.

The documentation Socket.BeginConnect Method (EndPoint, AsyncCallback, Object) (System.Net.Sockets)[^] says:

When your application calls BeginConnect, the system will use a separate thread to execute the specified callback method, and will block on EndConnect until the Socket connects successfully or throws an exception.

Which means it works as I would expect: it starts a separate thread to perform the blocking operation.
