Provided you have set your mysql db up to be accessible remotely then you should just be able to specify the laptop as the server in the mysql node.

That's not a Node-RED question. You'll need to do a google search to find out how to remotely access mysql in wamp.

Once you have it working outside of NR then you should be able to get it working inside NR.

That isn't even near to being a node red question, but I do happen to know that for mysql itself, in the mysql conf file, you have to change  
`bind-address = 127.0.0.1`  
to  
`bind-address = your.server.ip.address`
