What is an appropriate response to "Excuse me"

Sometimes people say "Excuse me" to me even though when they don't have to apologize to me. 

For example, they didn't make a sound that loudly but they say "EXCUSE ME" to me if they have to pass by me while I am working or studying. 

I know they do not really "APOLOGIZE" to me and they say it to be kind and polite. 

However, I want to express " You don't have to ask my excuse this time! "

So what is a proper answer to them. 


" NO problem? "

the verb "ask"

It is so difficult for me to use the verb "ASK" in various ways. 

Today, I wanted to ask my friend a question but I changed my mind to ask her that question tomorrow. 

Can I say like this?

" No worries, I will ask you later "


After saying it, I noticed that when I say "ASK SOMEONE" without a noun after it, it could contain some negative and different meanings. 


Is it wrong to say like this?
