Would China not drop bombs if they faced no consequences and it benefited them?

Idk, they probably have had the opportunity sometimes, but they don't have the same military industrial complex as the USA pushing for it at every chance. So the cost benefit analysis is different. Quite often it doesn't benefit "the USA" as much as a few specific people within, and that mechanic doesn't exist in the same way for China.

Ues but thankfully not only two countries exist in the world. Picking between china and the usa is like picking shit with and without corn.
