“ je t’en prie/ je vous en prie” .It is polite.
French etiquette simply would advise you not to answer.
If you want to answer to a person saying “merci” you can say also:
What motivated you to start reading books in English? What was the first book you read in English?
“Pas de problème” is common and sounds uneducated. It’s often used though.
“c’est un plaisir” or “avec plaisir” “c’est mon plaisir” is polite.
“Il n’y a pas de quoi” . It is friendly and can be slightly familiar but it’s informal and acceptable.

“De rien” is not correct although it is often heard. Avoid it. It should be “Ce n’est rien”.
