I don't think China explicitly wanted Trump, unlike Russia. China just wanted to sow disarray in the US.

Well they sowed disarray during a time that was only favourable to Trump. Not like they could expect a different outcome.

True. I don't think though that they realize that the orange toddler will not act rationally in regards to them. If Putin orders it he will go after them.
