Meishi is such an odd one out compared to the family that he must have been adopted from another planet. They have personality while he is almost a plank of wood.
I think it is just more along the lines that his family is just too strong of a personality, that he needed to grow to be the only mellow person there to balance out the family, and its not like his personality is completely flat, its just standard for a romantic ML.

Meishi's master isn't suddenly going to appear out of nowhere, so they'll be fine--I jinxed it, didn't I?

I'm just going to throw this out, if nobody else is thinking about this; Rinna is the girl from Meishi's primary school, as she mentioned also receiving a promise from someone in the past, and neither of them recognize/remember the other from that time.
Iirc, wasn't Meishi about 2 or 3 years older than Rinna?

Guess Rinna is part of that minority of women who want to go on a hotspring trip with their bf before marriage.

I could've sworn I remember something about both his parents being detectives? I think that old Police Superitendent (Rinna's former boss) mentioned it before

So Rinna and Meishi definitely made that promise to each other. As for his parents being detectives it could be a retcon on the part of the author- that was a minor detail shared in the first ten chapters- or it could be they retired or changed jobs for some reason.

Also I see a lot of people mentioning this but: Rinna being underaged isn't  the reason Meishi holds himself back so much. Hell, pretty sure the AoC in Japan is still like 16 or something? But Japanese culture is huge on respect, propriety, and doing things "properly". Which is what Meishi wants to do.

He wants to respect Rinna by being 'worthy' of her and standing as her equal in a way he can feel proud of. He doesn't want to skip steps or rush into things because of that. Hell, remember when they got outed and most of the precinct mobbed him and even wrote "sex-crazed detective" on his forehead? Yeah. He wants to prove (if only to himself) that he's worthy of her, respects her, and cares about her for more than her body.

That's why he holds back despite the fact that Rinna is all but intentionally riling him up in the hopes of taking things further. Well, that and the fact that she  is a minor- age of consent or otherwise- in tandem with the implications that when push comes to shove Rinna isn't quite as ready to "find out" as she believes she is.
