Does Cebu Pacific weigh one's carry on bags ?

Just purchased a Hong Kong to Cebu ticket on Cebu Pacific. Noted that one is allowed ONE piece of carry on baggage of maximum weight 7kg.

Normally I travel with a wheeler carry on PLUS a backpack, which actually fits into the wheeler carry on if I have to, and never check in luggage. Normally the combined weight of the two is probably around 9kg, and most full-service airlines won't bother challenging me.

Does 5J actually weight your carry on bags at check in ? Can you bypass the check in counters if you online check in and have boarding pass on hand ? How likely would they enforce the baggage rules and at least ask me to check in the wheeler ? Want to see if I should purchase the basic check in allowance of 15kg instead.
