In nm-connection-editor select the connection with the other system (*not* to the internet) and set the Method to "Shared to other computers" in the IPv4 tab (and IPv6 if you want so). Unfortunately the wording of the option is counterintuitive, it should probably be something like "allow other computers on this connection to use this computer's internet connection" (whichever that might be).
