I also got E.
Firstly, semicolon should make the sentence standalone so A and B can be ignored
Secondly, E sounds better when we are referring to two people talking.

This is an easy question (more in a 600+ range).

Answer is clearly E due to its concise and correct referral

Mohit, you can not find any antecedent for "this" in (C) so incorrect.
