China has a very peripheral impact on stability in Pakistan - primarily by virtue of being a reliable supplier of military equipment and economic investment that gives the civilian government and military additional space to carry out development, strengthen institutions and conduct kinetic and intelligence operations to counter destabilizing elements within Pakistan.Nothing will happen to Pakistan as long as China is strongly supporting it. Remember Pakistan is China's Israel. China will do anything and everything for the sake of Pakistan.

The main driver of instability in Pakistan will be the civilian government and it's inability to properly invest in development, reconstruction and strengthening of institutions. The military has demonstrated, multiple times, that it can successfully conduct kinetic operations to clear and hold territory, but what the military cannot do is provide long term stability since that requires the civilian government to implement reconstruction and development policies. The civilian government hasn't even implemented the FATA reforms, for example, after several years.
Like I said, it has an impact, but nowhere near as significant as you are making it out to be. The major issue remains the ineffective use of resources (compounded by corruption and waste) by civilian governments (military governments in the past have not been much better either). Pakistan has the capacity and resources to undertake the necessary development and reconstruction without Chinese assistance. Chinese assistance just allows for some additional resources to be put in place after the waste and corruption.Chinese power and influence should neither be understated nor under estimated.
