Is there a property or command that can help to hide/fold a subtree temporarily even when doing org-cycle?

If you mark the heading as "archived" then it's ignored for the default visibility toggling.
C-c C-x a (org-toggle-archive-tag), which just adds/removes the "ARCHIVE" tag to the heading -- all the subtree content remains.
Even when marked as archived you can force expansion with C-c C-TAB (org-force-cycle-archived) on the heading if you want, or just remove the archive tag.
note: if you're using a version of Emacs older than 27 then the binding is C-TAB (this binding was appropriated for tab-bar-mode in Emacs 27 and thus had to change).
See the manual for more details: https://orgmode.org/manual/Internal-archiving.html#Internal-archiving
edit: added note about changed keybinding for org-force-cycle-archived from Emacs 27.

org-cycle-hide-drawersto skip over something you have hidden that contains a special property/symbol; e.g., an overlay property such as'org-cycle--skip-this t. However, there are only a very few Emacs users in the world who would dare modify a stock function -- e.g., I modify the heck out of anything and everything that I can get my hands on.
