Look at mining something like Music coin or ETN or Ethereum if you have a serious laptop. If they are multi-thread CPU's also try VRM.

Don't bother TRYING to mine Litecoin (or any other Scrypt coin) on any GPU.
Scrypt mining got taken over by ASIC devices 4 or so YEARS ago.
For what you apparently want to do with your 2 machines, look into "internet connection sharing" - you can't have the MINER submit work to another MINER, but you CAN have the 2 machines share a single Internet connection.
Or better yet, get a "WAN/LAN" router box to do the connection sharing instead - then you could eventually add a LOT more machines.

I run Nicehash Miner Legacy previously to mine Bitcoin but the site is down recently so I switch to mine Litecoin currently using EasyMiner
My problem is
1. I have No1. computer (slow) that is 24/7 connected to internet
2. I have No2. computer (very strong GPU and CPU) which is connected to the slow computer via LAN only 24/7
I know there are a way to set up the No2 computer as worker and submit the work to the No1 computer then the No1 will submit the work to internet
I also know that there are config file somewhere to be modified for No2 computer communicate to No1 computer by below parameter
rpcallowip=*
But because starting from NICEHAS and EasyMiner there are no place to set up that parameter
Can anyone briefly give me a hint for setting up the mining on that two computers?
I am really appreciated
