Playing an audio CD like that should just work. You'll need to run some software on the laptop but Windows Media Player should suffice. Other players are available. You'll need headphones obviously unless the laptop has speakers.
Assuming the external CD unit and the CD blanks support recording then you can copy audio files to the CD and play them back from there. If you want to create an audio CD that would work in a music CD player then that would be more complicated. There will be apps that you can download to the laptop that could do it.
