Is there any possibility on using writer feature that has been generated into reader feature so I can avoid from running the workbench twice?

You can use a FeatureWriter immediately followed by a FeatureReader.

Exactly: You can use the "Summary" port of a FeatureWriter as the "Initiator" Input Feature of a FeatureReader. One of the main functions of those Transformers is to Read and Write on the condition of something else happening first before they are triggered.
