If you select "Bridged Network" here, you don't need a second adapter.
See chapter 6.3 ("Bridged Networking") in the VirtualBox user manual:
https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/6.1.20/UserManual.pdf
If you only need to ssh into the VM from the VirtualBox host, a port
forwarding rule is also a good solution, as it is more secure. You
just assign a port and run "ssh -p <port> localhost".
